The darn camera batteries chose this HUGE moment to fail, so I only have one good shot....sorry.

It took us a good hour to inventory everything and get it all open. While watching an old JAG episode (I thought that was kind of appropriate). We decided against opening any of the little paper bags with all the rivets and such until the next night so we could get everything organized.

One thing I should mention, all the metal was coved in a protective film and held together in the box with Duct Tape. When we took off the Duct Tape it took off a bunch of the plastic as well. I was a little worried but I was assured by the - The RV-List Email Forum - that it is OK. They said that some people take it off immediately to remove any chance of moisture being trapped under it and hurting the metal. For now we are leaving the plastic on until we start our first steps of actual building.

WOW! It has finally started!
