Where Were You 7 Years Ago on September 11

For more reasons than can be expressed, we are selling our bus that we called home for more than 5 years. It has been up in Colorado for the last two years and needs a new home. Below is how it was listed on eBay. It was a successful auction and the new owner now…

Getting a Washer and Dryer for the Bus
What a wonderful birthday I had this year! Thirty nine is not so bad when you have people around you that love you and a Father in heaven who guides you. Scott and I celebrated my birthday this year by installing a new washer and dryer in the bus. They work like a dream! No…
