Very lovely-Belle Provence for sure. Maurice wants to know if there is pictures of that beautiful old truck and camper?
I am trying to convince him to let me do a video of it. 1953 Chevrolet 1 ton and the camper 1958 original Silver Queen. It is amazing inside
How’s life?. Yeah~ you uploaded unusual ~take it easy! 🖐
Don’t understand what you mean. Je ne comprends pas
So so beautiful. Nice to see the good times you are having.
C’est ou cette belle plage
C’est sur i’ile de Vancouver, Courtenay BC
Wowwww. Merci
Love it
Thank you
Such beautiful country. And no traffic! Hope you get your problem solved. Take care.
Judy,the background music is too loud. Hard to hear what you’re talking about. You may need to a new battery.
Hi Anne, thank you, will try to edit the next video better. We have had very little internet service on the trip so was quick to upload when internet was available. It is a brand new battery
Just curious why you chose to put your bed up front and your kitchen in the rear.
I wanted to have my kitchen next to the back windows for more light and easy access to bringing food outside because I use the back doors to come in and out, not the side doors.
❤❤❤❤❤
Wow. Son did a great job. I know you are proud. Neat.
I am proud of him
I love it you will have some great adventures in that.
Thank you. I am having a good adventure so far
Great build! We too have a Ford Transit 2020 and we did a generic build 😊not as pretty as this but doable. Let me ask you, have you had any issues with the van lights lately? Ours headlights are turn on at random times all the times when the van is off... mechanics we have used to try and try to fix the issue and they can't find what's wrong. Please ask your son he may know something. Thanks, Happy travel
I have not had issues with outside van lights but I had to dismantle the inside cargo lights because they drained my battery a few times. So far so good. Also The inside dash lights do not turn off unless I lock the van. Garage said that was normal
I make my own with my kefir grains. I also make my own yogurt too. I make my smoothies with my kefir. I use 2% milk also. When my kefir is ready I strain it into mason jars then take the kefir grains and put them into a large mason jar then add my milk and put it back in the fridge. When I’m almost done with the kefir I strained I will remove the next kefir batch from the fridge and then start the process again.
Do you live in it full time or just for travel? It’s very nice 👍. What did you mean when you said you put your name on a list for your van? Are you retired or working remotely? Sorry for asking so many questions but I really enjoy seeing how women make this decision and make it work for them.
No I do not live in it full time . Who knows where the time goes, maybe at some point. I am on the maiden voyage of travelling at this time
After having been a long term caregiver
@@songsparrowadventures happy travels!
Re:list. I had put a down payment on a ram promaster and after a year there might be another year to wait, so purchased used
Thank you
Why did you put the bed right next to the door? I always want to have a view of the front cab
The bed is behind the drivers seat and ther is no door on that side. I will be changing under bed with slides for drawer and guest bed that pulls out will go behind the seats so there is more space and easy access out. I liked it on the side and behind seat with kitchen in back is because of the windows and I use the back door not the side. It works for me
I think the minimalist build is effective. I've downsized a billion times almost
I do continually as well, I had accumulated a lot these past years
Your son must have had fun building this cuz there’s a lot of luxuries built in that says he wanted the best for you and really thought it out. Unless he builds these for a living?
I think that he had fun building it. We made a good team I making decisions
Very nice van & build!
Thank you
It's beautiful!
Thank you
Wow, awesome build. Kudos to your son! Looking forward to watching your travels. Do you mind if I ask how much did you get the van for? Thanks in advance.
I bought it from Kia Motor it was a budget cargo van and had 83000 kms on it and I paid $46000. British Columbia is expensive. The build out with lithium batteries lights and everything was around $20,000
Welcome to Alberta !
its very cute!
Thank you
Such a sweet video...I love the build !.. thanks for sharing...
Thank you
Can we get your son to do our vans??? Great job!
Thank you. I know too bad he is too busy with raising his bees and another job. We did most of the build in January and February sometime at -3 degrees burr
A great looking van, love the kitchen and sliding desk. Bed looks comfy too. Your son did an amazing job
Thank you
Interesting design.
Thankyou
Looks like the trip is off to a great start. Enjoy!
Thank you. Set alarm for 5:30 today it is now 7:23 am it is probably good to check the am and pm settings. Off to Saskatchewan
A Beautiful Tribute Judy! Alice indeed was an inspiration and special!❤
Thank you
Nice build-out💫
Thank you
How deep did you make your cabinets on both sides?
9 inches
Such a cute space❤
Thank you
Wooow I looove your van❤
Thank you
The kitchen in the back is such a nice idea. Love the layout for a single traveler.
Thank you, I love it
Beautiful falls and flowers! ❤
Thank you
Really nice build. When are you going on your trip to Quebec. PM me as I have a nice spot you might like to rest up at near Kingston off the Rideau Canal.. That is a very long drive. Do you have a time line or can you take as long as you need. What a great adventure.
Thank you, we are heading for Ottawa for my friend’s mom 102 yr birthday for July 23, so we have not planned the stops. Where about are you on Rideau? My friend is from Ottawa so knows the area. Not sure how to private message you from KZread. Thank you for your offer
Not sure I’m able to drive such a big van.
It is amazing what you can do if you desire. But I know it is not for everyone/ I feel that at my age it may be my last hurrah lol
Your son did an amazing job!! Love the van build. I've just subscribed. Looking forward to following you.
Thank you. Will be posting some videos of our west to east journey
Your son is a fine Carpenter. 👍
Thank you, I think he did a great job
Best of breed best of show. Great job.
Thank you. Planning on a few tweaks along the way regarding storage underneath - possibly have pull out slides for easier access
Simple and effective use of space. Perfect spot for the bed and your pet is comfortable underneath. 👍🏻
Thank you
Nice build,a little different than most builds, but that's not a bad thing, I like the bed and storage underneath and dog bed😊🎉
Thank you
At our age you’ll need that toilet more than you think. They are so nice to have during the night. I love mine. I just use for liquids.
I agree, with the short wheelbase there is no place to put a compost toilet. I do have a toilet for emergency and have the bottle and funnel for liquids
Totally agree! The joys of getting older :)
Hello, I have a question, how tall is it inside.
With the ceiling, insulation, flooring, 3/4" plywood and vanrug first layer - from floor to ceiling it is 68.5". I believe bare it is 71". I have the mid size roof.
Very nice and well organized!
Thank you
I love 😘 it 😍, and I love 😘 those vans 👍👍👍😊
Thank you
Judy! This is great. I can come along on the journey. Hope you and Sam have fun. Please say hello. I will try and tune in. Always having to fight the darn alogrithms.
Sam wanting to go to the Maritimes so you never know you might get a call to get a coffee somewhere
@@songsparrowadventures okay!
That is the best build I’ve have ever seen! Your son did a beautiful job!
Thank you. Yes, i think he did a great job. I will be tweaking some things as I go along.
Wonderful build!! Enjoy!! 😊
thank you
Enjoy your trip. Remember to take your time embrace the journey. Be safe.
Thank you . Great words of wisdom, yes that is the intention. Have a wonderful summer we cross paths
