| Urban Camping |
Our last urban camping experience occurred three years earlier when we purchased a home in Anacortes, WA, and prepared it for handoff to a rental property management company. Fast forward to March 2019, and we are in the final phase of staging our Vancouver, WA home for sale. The photo shoot for the real estate listing was coming up fast, so it was a mad dash to complete the last items on our ToDo list, and stage the house.

| Moved for RV pad driveway repair |
One of the items on our list was to have part of the driveway leading to our RV pad replaced. Trees had damaged the existing installation. In preparation for the work, we needed to relocate our Safari motorhome. Fortunately for us, our home is set back from the street with a fifty-foot driveway, so there was lots of room to park in front of the garage.

| The benefits of a long driveway |
With the motorhome moved, the crew was able to bring in their equipment to break up and remove the old driveway.

| Breaking up the damaged driveway |
Shortly after preparing the area for new concrete, Vancouver got hit by snow and below-freezing temperatures for several days, so we had to delay the pour. Four days before the scheduled photo shoot, the replacement driveway sections were laid down.

| The driveway is poured on March 11 |
March 9 was our last night in the house, so our urban camping experience started on March 10 as we continued to complete small projects and stage the house.

| Prepping to sell |
The photo shoot would be occurring on March 15, and we'd be departing for Anacortes on March 16. All total we'd spent seven days camping on the driveway.

| The new driveway in place. |
The crew that put in the new driveway did beautiful work, and it was all completed in time for the photo shoot.

| Our departure configuration minus kayaks and bicycles. |
