Rolling Along....

Since my last post, things have been rolling along.

We have had lots of snow-
it seems winter just does not want to end  :(

So...I went to Florida for 2 weeks with this gang. 

Had a blast!

Now, I am home, the weather is getting warmer everyday, and the camper is calling!!

Everyday I do something on her- sometimes a few BIG things, 

sometimes lots of small things. 

Here's an update:

I put up 2 walls on the curbside- and they look so good! 

I so love the birch wood these old campers were made with. 

Such a beautiful wood.

I am still awaiting my floor tiles.

They were supposed to come before my Florida trip, 

but were sent to the wrong address and needed to be reordered!  

Grrrr.  I can't put things back in until my floor is in.

I did put my subfloor 1/4" Luan in - so I am all ready for those darn tiles.

I took the metal roof off - by myself- as I was tired of waiting for Michael to come and help.

Wasn't too bad- and it looks in good shape.  Hopefully I can reuse it vs. buying new metal.

I WILL need to buy new metal for some of the walls- so any I can reuse makes me happy :)

I spent A LOT of time rebuilding the closet.  

It was not in one piece when I got the trailer- so it needed some work to get it right.

I keep saying: 'Thank God I am a teacher- as I sure am not a cabinet maker !!'

What would probably take my brother an hour -took me ALL DAY.

It came out really good after the stress it caused.  

I am learning, that is for sure.

I finished repairing/refinishing the shelf from over the bed.

New shelving wood, sanded and shellacked.

It looks good! 

I installed my first ever electric box(es) for interior lights.

Since the wood backing each one is only 3/4" thick, drilling holes for the wires was tricky, 

but I succeeded with minimal issues.

Finally :)

I need to clean up and paint the lights- and then they will be installed.

So nice to be putting things IN vs ripping them out!

Onward we go...
