That's nice. It looks like you've got a jungle inside your bus. Nice job.

Move? To a state that will insure? I left Maine less than 24 hours after graduating high school there. Nothing personal.

I really like those little curved windows.The old toyota 4x4 has curved windows and a landrover discovery. It looks really good . Thought about making somethinglike that in the curve of the roof but by now I have covered the inside with cabinets.

Spring time spring fever

Hi Skoolies. Nothing really new yet. I have decided to take out 2 more seats.
I have a better plan for the kitchenette. i plan to go camping in 2 weeks.
I hadn't driven the bus for a while.
I need to drive daily so I will be ready for the 40 miles of highway and 20 miles of county and forest service roads.
How is everything going for you?

I had to get broad form insurance. lots of agent to talk to before I figured it out. There is another agent that i am going to try to work with because I don't want 2 policies.
I am sorry, I haven't been keeping up with this forum.

getting some work done

I am getting the bus emptied out. We turned a seat around for the dinette.
My cot is in there and I have a kitchen sink in process.

Nice shortie! We kept all our seats in for our first few years of bus adventuring and they are sturdy devils for sure!
In our new renovation we are doing the dinette thing with two of them, and then adding two single seats (with risers under) plus two sofas across the wheel wells that will pull together into a bed.

Love your photos! Keep up the good work!

Olympic National Park

I haven't camped yet but a nice chance to get some drive time in and have a nice hike and picnic.

I took a weekend camping trip and was so very happy to be out of the rain next to the river.

Maybe a less feminine sounding than Peach Camp? How about Logging Camp?

You sure put that together fast.
