By the Light of the Silvery Moon....

A quick update by moonlight to show our readers the flooring that has been skillfully installed tonight by The Hubs. He's a keeper, for sure! It just goes to show, as we race toward our 23rd anniversary this weekend, that there's nothing quite like having a guy around who knows how to do stuff.

Here's the evidence! For the technically-minded, he used the leftover 1/8" birch paneling as underlayment, secured it to the trailer floor with staples, prepped the birch with Tec Multipurpose Primer, waited until it dried a bit and then applied the vinyl flooring.

We are thrilled with the result--adds a whole new layer of coziness to the canned ham.

That campground is getting closer every day!

The Golden Glow Returns!

A marathon day of canned ham camper refurb has produced impressive results, at least in my humble opinion. As you might have guessed by the title, the golden glow of amber shellac has returned, as every inch of birch inside our 1961 Mobile Scout camper has now received three coats of shiny awesomeness. Looks cozy, don't you think?

Another major project nearly completed is the reconfigured a/c, fridge and storage closet. Isn't the Hubs clever?

You may have also noticed in these random pics that Sweet Melissa's bedroom area has been reassembled and awaits a mattress. And I don't want to miss the big step in terms of personalizing our camper to our tastes. The Hubs primed and painted the door!! I think the color is amazing, and it really helped us finalize our color scheme.

 One more fun pic before I go...first meal together in our quickly coming together camper!

We laid out the flooring tonight and will be installing that soon. Then it's nuts and bolts stuff again, and a paint job, before Sweet Melissa is ready to roll. Thankful for a long day of working together and can't wait to see her when she's finished.
