SKOOLIE BUILD - First Things First

One of the very first things that needs to be done before we can move the bus to our build location is removing the decals and any wording that indicates it’s a school bus (or was a school bus).  We’ve read up on various ways to do this but found one recommendation on 4” rubber eraser disc that works off an electric drill.  We decided to give it a try, and let me say, we are so glad we did!  We had a little bit of a learning curve for the first few letters, but once we got going it was really easy and completed in under half an hour per side!  Check out the video and follow the affiliate links to purchase the items.

Returning to the blog, 10 month overview

Image
I'd like to start off by apologizing for our absence. We have been very busy traveling, working, exploring and meeting all kinds of new folks along the way. The blog will now be morphing into just that, more of a blog, rather than a chronological timeline of our adventures day to day.  (southernmost point; Key West, FL) I'll begin with a general overview of our travels over the past 10 months, then go into much more detail about the individual trips and lessons learned along the road in other entries as we go. There will be blog entries about ways to travel, food, entertainment and tips and tricks for traveling as well. (Alice with the little Key deer) Being I already have your attention, I'll begin the 10 month overview now. We left off headed to the Florida keys to vend the big pine key flea market. We did exactly that and met some amazing folks there, that welcomed us to stay on property with Alice in the future. I'm looking forward to writing...

Day 24 in St. Augustine, FL

Image
A beautiful day was in the forecast so we had a quick cup of coffee at camp and headed out for a day in St. Augustine.  Michelle found some cool yarn for sale on Facebook marketplace and it was on our way to st Augustine, so we made a stop there on our way.   Map of the area Carmen has several tee shirts from A1A Alehouse, from his Mom’s travels so we stopped there first for a late breakfast/early lunch.  Michelle had her favorite meal of shrimp & grits and a Bloody Mary. Carmen had grilled shrimp and a fried polenta cake with an IPA. We then took a short walk to Dog Rose Brewing and sampled some of their beer on a flight while hanging out on the patio. Flagler College which was originally a hotel.   Carmen taking a cigar break with the other old men.  A cool shopping area with a good variety of shops, restaurants and bars.  The oldest school ...

Day 22 set up at Lake George State Forest

Image
After a quite chilly night. We woke up and got a brisk start packing things into the Jeep for our move to Lake George looking forward to this being the end of the cold snap hopefully. The drive was a quick hour and twenty minutes but when we arrived at the free camp site (reservation required) there was a couple occupying the site already and had made themselves right at home with what little they had. We agreed to move along and leave them the site, continuing on we headed to the south end of the lake for a different site with a little more traffic from the state officials. Our new location wasn't free but close. At under 9 dollars a day to have a clean portable toilet and a pump well with non potable water available and other like minded campers nearby (much better vibes here than the free site with squatters) we were happy to call this campground home for our next three days. Here are some photos of camp and a fun time lapse video of the tent setup. Thanks for tuning in. Camp mo...
