    👍🏻👋🏻 additional note….. my Colin passed at home Sunday, no hospice order had been entered by doctor (arsehole) so the cops came to investigate the death and Prove it was ‘natural’. Ron & I knew the storm was coming, but the investigation & my grief made it hard to move quickly. Monday we moved our vehicles - the bus - and your cargo trailer to higher ground. Tuesday we secured the property as best we could and ran to the higher ground and hunkered down. We rode out the storm in the “big” bus with our pets, the eye of the storm went right over us, CAT 5, it tore off the solar panels and mounting hardware. I kept her bow just off the wind so we didn’t get broadsided when the 170mph winds hit. I have one scar over side entrance door which has now been painted with “historical marker”. When we returned to the house it was fine. No water intrusion, only palm trees & oak branches down. The clean up began. It was a crazy time. In a weird way the impact of the storm (clean up) kept me moving forward through the grief. I lost it later, on the road, more tears than miles, but a lot of both. 😞😭 Now I reside in my bus, thank you she’s beautiful and everything I wanted. 🙏❤️

He gave me that boost that I need like I told him I have a lot more stuff I need to do and cancer is not gonna Take Me Out.

    I have watched a lot of shuttle bus conversion videos in the last few days, and all of them left me wanting in one way or another. Some were ugly on the outside and mediocre on the inside. Other vice versa, and some just plain ghetto or redneck through and through. Then I stumbled on one of your videos and it was enough to subscribe. Your bus is incredibly well built out. I love what you've done with the cedar throughout, and the kitchen is a dream. And last but not least, your onboarding video is totally entertaining.

As for me I never got on the road matter of fact I'm in the hospital right now I'm having blood pressure problems due to some of the medicines they gave me for the cancer that I have messed with my adrenal glands. I had talked to our buddy with the Red bus you did the cabinets anyway they're trying to find out why when I stand up my blood pressure drops that I faint. I have good doctors so but the big doctor was all Jesus is looking out after me. God bless hope to see more videos stay safe stay strong stay healthy but enjoy life ♥️🧑‍🍳🧑‍🎄✌️
