Gone Moble

Downloaded an I Phone app for blogging, so now we can update from the road, pics and all!

The Best Part

I was just out with Summer in the Shack helping her hang her first wall up. I told her that I always found this part of the rebuilds to be the best part because it was so satisfying to see the progress. After the walls go in then it just gets plane old fun from there. We are all so excited for Summer (especially Tish who is anxiously waiting to have her own little home away from home). Can't wait to see it with walls soon!!!

Bombs and laundry!

OK ladies, it's that time to pull out all the linens and throw in the bug bombs! Monica and I have been itching to take our trailers out, so we are going to give you all some places that we are going to be going and you should all join us, but for now we all need to do the spring cleaning that it requires to get ready. I am thinking that this Saturday I will traipse over to Mom and Dad's and start stripping the beds and wiping down counters. It's so fun to get back into the camper after winter and remember all the fun things that are in there and how much we enjoy going places and spending time with everyone! Last year I even got Gordon to sleep in the trailer on two separate trips! That is such an accomplishment!! He did secretly divulge that not having to set up a tent in the rain and wake up in the middle of the night soaking wet, because the water is traveling under the tent, was worth sleeping in the trailer. Aah, the sense of being right overwelhms me.
Any who, we have the trip for Memorial weekend set up and I think everyone will be there, Hooray, even Charlie, Misty and Family will be joining us! We'll keep you all posted on other trips...any suggestions of places is welcome! We are looking for some new places to go and see, so scour your maps and let the ideas begin!
Here are pictures from Bandon from one of last year's last minute trips that Monica and I went on, and Ty and Tori joined us for the day:

We went to the wildlife park and Jude got to pet this black panther. Note to everyone for the next time we go: WEAR RAIN BOOTS! There's a lot of poop, since they let most of the animals just roam the grounds, so you can just hose off the boots when you're done walking around.

Holy Cow!


So, our first show and shine with the Gorgeous Georges fleet was a huge success. Everyone loved the trailers, and even some neighbors came down to check it out. Good job girls, they were a hit. The Queen Bee is seriously in the home stretch, and another week, it will be all the way done. Yay! Now for the big news, drum roll please... all the tin made it back on the Shack. It went back together, WOW. We are most impressed with Rocketman Ricky's skills. Great job!

"Labor " Day Weekend

All I can say is WOW! Ricky is the man!!! The tin is being put back on The Shack, and the new frame work is amazing. Both of the side walls are back in place, and soon the top will be on. Congrats to the Olivers, you are making huge progress. And now for the Queen Bee. it has a counter top, and curtains. We are making some progress. This next Saturday we would love to have all the Gorgeous Georges on display at the church for the show and shine. Looking forward to seeing you all there.

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.
