Without further ado, we are ready to give a real tour to our virtual friends and those who didn’t have a chance to see the rig at our “housewarming/going away party!” We unfortunately don’t have a fish eye lens on board so we had to make do with some panorama software which had some trouble… Read More Interior Tour
Again, we’ve been doing boring stuff. None of it is really big enough for a full blog post so here are some mini things. The Back Room is Complete! I finished the plywood in the back with some leftover Waterlox from when we did the floors in our house. It looks pretty good but the texture… Read More April 19th 2016 – Status Update
We completed 3 major projects this weekend. First, we got all of the electrical system in the RV (minus the solar panels themselves) working together. The batteries are in, the inverter/charger is installed and the 12V system is working correctly. But that’s boring stuff. Next is the flooring. Originally we were planning on doing laminate… Read More Painting and Flooring
We’ve done a lot of work on the RV but none of it is impressive enough by itself (yet) for a full blog post, so we decided to just post a bunch of pictures of our progress so far. We finished installing the dinette in the back room. We also made the storage area behind… Read More Progress Report – March 19th 2016
A while ago we were really nervous that we were going to be over the weight ratings for our RV but then we found a solution. In order to meet the manufacturer’s weight ratings, we needed to have a transmission cooler and we needed to upgrade the springs. In that post I said, “If I can do all the… Read More Air Spring Install
I will never complain about moving furniture again. Even a giant bookcase full of books is simple to move compared to moving furniture in an RV. We’ve mentioned some of our plans for how we wanted to re-arrange things in the RV and we had some other plans that we hadn’t fully fleshed out yet. For… Read More Changing the Layout
The “home” part of the RV is gutted! We have finished ripping out the carpet and in the process, most of the furniture. RV carpet is awful, even before you take the fact that it’s been there for 27 years into account. Or to be more specific, it’s awful to remove. They installed it before… Read More Demolition
Back to our RV. We’ve been slowly working through the list of “Bad” from The Good and the Bad. First up was the leak in the front windows. The first big rain storm we had, I went inside and looked around for leaks and low and behold, all of that water damage on the front was… Read More Vents and Construction
This is going to be a big project and I’m totally going to nerd out about most aspects of it so I’m going to break it up into a few parts. In this post I’m going to try really hard to keep very high level. Hopefully Allison can even read this and know what I’m talking… Read More RV Solar – Overview
Allison here, I finally got myself a WordPress account and a bit of free time to write! We are under a blizzard warning today in Denver. It’s been pretty humdrum so far, despite the hype, but is a great example of why we are not setting out until spring time. So what are we doing… Read More Interior Decor in a Small Space
