Hello from the Rockies

Hey y'all, I'm from TN but recently downsized and moved to Colorado where I traded a motorcycle for a 95 blue bird and here I am. On the verge of Winter with the roof is cut off my bus is not where I imagined myself to be right now hahaha. But I have faith, and now I have you!

I have no doubt I'll be done...ish before the snow flies, but any tips from you Arctic skoolies we'll be greatly appreciated.

Here is my progress so far

Well, I guess with all that open bus and winter coming on, you won't have to worry about any air conditioning bills........

Welcome, winter weather in CO really depends on where you are. Denver can be 70deg in February while Gunnison is miserable.

yeah. that's the cold part.

Most people by the ski towns come down to Denver to buy less expensive supplies. You should hit me up on one of your trips we can have a coffee or beer and talk about bus projects.
