Out of VA finally

Well we had some issues in Virginia- Overheating, was the biggest one, so we had to get the beast checked- got a new thermostat. None of that helped, finally at a truckstop I pulled the back apart, and found that a wire on this

Doo-hicky was snapped- would have saved lots of time and money if I'd have seen that earlier- anyway overheating is pretty much solved.

We are in TN at the smokies nat Park- more pics to come

The adventure

Well here we are boondocking in the woods of Viginia

Chester our dog, taking it easy under the bus.

Getting the grill all set up.

The river was about 15 feet from us, nice to listen to the water, flowing outside the windows.

The small things...

Well, the conversion is all but done so we started putting the small things that increase comfort. Got my "dash buddies" in for the drivers station.

Post Script....

Well the work is pretty much done. It's been tough, but very rewarding building our bus. It starts sparking the imagination as to the potential that bus conversions have.

Our plans as of right now are not certain, some people might be afraid of a lifestyle on the road. We are optomistic about it, in these days everything is uncertain. How many people are losing their jobs, homes drowning in debt just trying to keep the wolves off the door?

So, we have our house with us at all times- it's secure, insulated, warm has everything you need... and best of all paid for free and clear. So, we begin our new lives full of hope and expectations. The question: "how will we live?" Our answer: "Day-by-Day"

The finall Piece!!!

Today we made the bus a fire breathing dragon...

I was not about to leave my beloved grill behind.

Side view

Closed up ready for travel... I will have to bungie the lid and wings down before we get ou on the road.

I fashioned my own spacers out of an old braker bar I had.
