Counters and skylight!

The bus is really looking amazing! We have added counters, walls, love, and a skylight! What?! Yes!

Long time friends Dean and Holly from Washington were visiting recently, and Dean wanted to help us with the kitchen counters. It is what he does for a living...so we said absolutely. We love the help and the sense of friendship and community it creates. We bought solid wood counters from Ikea and were ready.

window frames.

He needed to make some inside adjustments.
He is sawing...inside...Angela is terrified in the back!

Look how lovely!!!

We realized that the giant air conditioner that was installed in the ceiling pop up vent was leaking when it rained. So we tried to seal it with some heavy duty rv roof sealant. It did not work. So we decided to take it out and put in a skylight. It's prettier anyway and now we will be able to lay on the futon and look up at the stars at night! We are going to make an insulated cover for when it is too hot or cold that can fit up in the skylight. The air conditioner was a huge piece of metal, but we were successfully wrastled it out!

Angela having a great time trying to seal the leak!
