One of my treasures...

I'm still very blessed and thankful! Just felt like I needed to say that after yesterday's rant. Also, it goes to show that no matter how perfect we think someone's life is...EVERYBODY has issues. With that being said, we'll move on to something more exciting and extremely challenging. So, come follow me...I've got something to show you...................................................

About a year ago we purchased a 1966 Yellowstone camper...you heard me right, it's a 1966. I would have preferred a 1962, since that was the year I was born, however, we looked 'forever' for this little treasure. We didn't know what she would actually be(what make)...we only knew that we wanted an antique, not fully gutted....possibly in half decent shape, to restore and give it new life. The following pics show what we got... I love this stove!!

Single bunk over dinette area(folded up)...look above the windows...


Ok, here is same bunk, folded out...




Another view...reminds me of a coffin, though...

I am excited to have this beauty, even though we've gotten sidetracked many times, and it's taking a while to get her the way we'd like. But, we have started the restoration, and so far replaced the commode and floor in the shower, replaced hot water heater(this cost almost as much as we gave for the whole camper), replaced hoses and fixed leaks underneath the camper and kitchen sink, had new foam cut for daybed, dinette, and bunk cushions...and as I write this, we're in the process of having that foam, covered in two different patterns of gorgeous fabrics! I hope to show you some updated pics in the really near future.

Til next time, blessings!
