Neat article. Definitely think this should be an easier option.. especially the permit idea.

Sooooo I'm just way too excited and proud to wait to share!!!

Here's the progress of my official interior build! So much time and engineering by my handsome and wonderfully skilled boyfriend . After does anyone really know what they are doing??? Especially when a bus is in evolved??? Forever greatful for my human companion.

Also take a look at the progress with insulation!!! Absolutely loving the ease of installation, and quality difference already!!!

I need to step back, to move forward.... It's depressing. Mentally, I'm a mess. But it's needed. Let's try this again.

I've been living in Wilson half a** built for 2 years now. Stock installation it's cold cold cold in winter and boiling in summer. I've been able to tolerate it, but enough is enough. Gutting and tearing everything out to start again.

Wilson and I are in the market for some new/different solar panels. Currently looking at 1 485w bifacial panel from Canadian Solar, or 3 smaller panels totalling over 500w... Replacing our 1 250w Canadian Solar panel that wasn't performing too good anymore. Any suggestions? Budget is $500 and we are looking for 400-600w new or used.

Some might say this is a lucky shot. I say I recorded driving (hands free) for 28minutes and this is the fraction of a second that made it all worth it. One frame. Ha. Neat.

Life has been extremely tough recently. Decline in health, chronic pain, chronic fatigue. Thus greatly impacting my mental health. BUT! I finally feel confident to say things are lightening up! I miss traveling and exploring with Wilson. Hoping to have more of my build done by end of summer, so many plans in the works. I'd love to do a fall tour either out in NS again or perhaps to Manitoulin Island! Just keep dreaming and working away one day at a time.

Thanks everyone for your ongoing support! It's greatly appreciated! This photo was taken by my lovely cousin . I love you so much 🥰. We went off the Beaton path found this beautiful rocky beach in NS almost 2 years ago!!! Such an amazing adventure!!! With more to come!!!
