Weekend Warriors

So, another Saturday has come and gone, and more trailer work has been done. The Shack is close to having a wall frame put back up. Ricky almost done replacing the rotten wood on one of the side walls, and soon it will be ready to be attached to the trailer frame, and with a little faith, and a lot of luck when all the frames are back up, hopefully the tin will go back on, correctly. Let's all hope, but for now, it is coming along great. On the finishing end of things, the Queen Bee is coming along nicely. There are just a few random things to paint, and still waiting for the faucet to come in so that the counter top can be finished. The curtains are cut, and will be put together this week. The end is closer than ever. Yes! Soon we will be on the road.

Work Day







This Saturday was a huge work day for the trailers. Both the Queen Bee, and The Shack made huge progress in their construction. the Queen Bee is almost there, with just some finishing work to do. It now has trim around the windows, and is almost ready for curtains, and other such luxuries. I am counting the days. As far as The Shack goes, it now has a sub floor, and is on it's way to being a work of art! Keep up the great work.

The Latest In Projects Has Arrived!

Emily Jane has inherited the cutest trailer ever from her neighbor. It is all metal with two stripes, that will be freshened up with new paint. It needs a rebuild on the inside, and a good polish on the outside, but soon it will be looking bright and beautiful. Torr and Emily are up for the challenge, and we have suggested a name to go along with the horse shoe and handkerchief theme, "Lucky Me" will be restored to it's original glory, or should we say... lucky Emily!!! Let's all pitch in and do it!

Girl Trip Fun

As usual we had a blast on the annual Girls Trip. We started in Newport this year, and ended in Astoria. The coast was perfect. We saw and did many things, and the kids were great. The Girls Trip is the most anticipated trip of the year, and always ends up being the most fun. Some highlights from this year are, of course, the Newport Aquarium, the kids love it, Tillamook cheese factory, the beach at Seaside, and a truck ride around Fort Steven's. There were lots of other great things we did also, and for all those that missed it, we hope to see you all next year.

Trailer updates.

So the latest updates are now available on this sight. Here is the low down. Ricky has done a fabulous job on the base of "The Shack" all the rust is gone, and there is a coating of rubberized paint on it. It's Nice!!! The "Queen Bee" has a counter top piece cut for it thanks to Jim Olson. I can feel the home stretch coming on.
