Howdy All!! Been a hot minute since we've posted anything. Finished our Summer Season in Glacier and are currently back in Texas for a bit. Going to West Virginia for the winter to work at a B-and-B that a Couple friends own near Snowshoe Ski Resort. Been able to do some work on the bus too!
Removed the Handicap lift! Finally decided it had outlived its use and the extra few bits of space were more beneficial. Took it out by myself - just started un-bolting stuff and I was able to get everything out by myself in less than a day!
In its place, we moved the deep freeze from the back and I built a storage box for tall stuff (folding chairs, outdoor rugs, brooms, etc.)
Also re-covered the entry steps! Just wanted something a little neater and more finished-looking. Here's the before:
And the after:
I used just an outdoor carpet for the sides and used an entry mat that I cut up for the stair treads. I really like how it turned out!
Since we had some leftover of the carpeting, I decided to put it on some other walls and bare ares that needed a sprucing up. I put it on the area adjacent to the countertop which was originally just a bare piece of plywood. Looks much cleaner! Also put some on the metal sides under the windows. Makes it less industrial-looking and more finished!
We also had to buy a new car over the summer (Jeep Grand Cherokee), and will be setting it up to flat tow. Not a cheap endeavor
, but will be worth the cost in the long run. Glad to not have to use the tow dolly anymore - that thing was being a pain in the rear!
Have a great week - Will post some more pics as I find them!
