After weeks of working (and procrastinating 😅), Van Levinson Gould is finally done! Well, I say she's done, but what I really mean is that she's done for now. I think there will probably always be something that we'll be working on or adding to. Still on the list is curtains for the windows, but … Continue reading And… Done.
We’re getting down to the wire. We knew when we started conversion #2, that we would probably hit the road before it was totally done. After spending over a year on the bus, I just wasn't prepared to stay in one place for such a long time again getting a van ready. I am itching … Continue reading Making Plans
She’s been sold - The Russ Bus no longer belongs to us! We spent almost a year and a half turning that old bus into our dream tiny house, and she drove away without us last night.

This is it! Yesterday we took off on our longest trip by far - at 1,437 miles. So far, the trip has been pretty easy, and we’ve made great time. While I’m writing this, we’re driving through the middle of Missouri - almost half way there! Before we left, we spent three weeks in Prattville … Continue reading Headed North 🚌
I’ve never been a very good housekeeper. I wish I was one of those people who’s house is always clean and visitor-ready, but instead I’m the person who speed cleans while having a panic attack when someone is coming over. Life is just too short to keep a house clean. 🤷🏼♀️ One of the things … Continue reading Instagram Vs. Reality: Real Life in a Skoolie
Today we say goodbye to the place we’ve called home for the last four years. We moved to Albertville/Boaz right after I graduated from JSU for a teaching job. After that chapter closed, we decided to stay anyway and turn Boaz into our home. It’s where we bought our first home, brought our bus home, … Continue reading Saying Goodbye
