Hey guys! Hard to believe the end of the year is quickly approaching! And with it, our timeline for finishing the bus. It's been busy since our last post and instead of trying to cover all the updates in a blog post; we've decided to give you a walk through tour of what's currently happening... Continue Reading →
We started the plumbing process with running pex piping from the point of where the hot water heater will go; which is under the kitchen sink. There will be two hot water heaters- one for the in-floor heating and one for the shower/sink. The floor piping has been run for some time; it was the... Continue Reading →
It all started when we decided to work on installing our shower. We quickly found out that to get accurate measurements and cuts for the shower walls, we would need to have the ceiling panels up. So we switched gears. We decided to go with tongue and groove cedar planks for the ceiling, which we... Continue Reading →
Over the last month we've been working towards completing a few different projects. Most are still in progress or a piece of a bigger job but we wanted to share an update of what's happening on the bus.

Both ceiling fans have been installed and they along with the skylights have been framed out. Here’s a video of... Continue Reading →
Well this was a project neither of us expected to take so long! We thought we could finish in 3-4 work days but it ended up taking 10. To prep for this, Paul had to do a little cutting to remove a metal lip just below the windows. Once that was done, we used 2x4's... Continue Reading →
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!! The past few weeks of work on the bus seem to be creeping along; but it is happening! In between travel and the holidays, we're getting closer to having the bus ready for insulation. The floor plan for the bus is 98% done and pending appliance specs. With that... Continue Reading →
When we were at the tiny home festival a few weeks ago, we got to see a guy named Mike, with Navigation Nowhere. We first met Mike, back in April while we were at the North Carolina tiny home event. His bus is beautiful and the craftsmanship is just really well done. Check out this... Continue Reading →
