More work on the motorhome..snow in the near future?

 Tuesday found us wishing my sister, Wendy and daughter in law, Christina a very Happy Birthday! 

After getting the day going by doing some baking for Ken it was time to head outdoors to the motorhome.  Got some more of the white frames over the couch and other side done.  The doors are ready to be painted but the wind and cold wasn't cooperating.  

White cabinets now..

It's really brightening it up.... :)

Wednesday morning Ken headed off to the DMV to register the MH and to see about getting a NV title for the Patriot.  He was there before 0800 and was #9 in line.  People are coming from Reno and Carson City and that overwhelms our little office. After 3 hours of waiting in line he finally got it done. We have new plates and registration for the MH.  Because we bought the car in CA they said we would have to go to a CA DMV and get them to issue it. Could be it's still coming in the mail anyway. NO way are we going to a CA DMV.  More than likely if we get rid of the car down the road we'll trade it in and then it becomes their problem. 

Once Ken got home out to the MH we went.  Too cold to paint outside so I started cutting in the gray for the walls. Ken worked on the pieces needed for the bedroom bunk. 

Part of the kitchen area before painting...

From the wood paneling to white.. I love the white! Ordered some new hardware today :) 

Lots of places the large paint roller won't work...but 3 inches will!

We quit about 1600 and headed over to see Karen and enjoy a fire for a bit.  Leftover tacos for dinner. Ken says he likes the cabbage better than the traditional lettuce, so that may be the new way of tacos! Thanks, Nancy! 

Heard from Adam and Erin last two nights. They enjoyed a nice lodge at Mt. Rainier and yesterday afternoon they were almost to Olympic National Park at the very top of Washington state. 

This morning I was awake at 1600 so just played on my phone for awhile. Hoping to get the kitchen area finished painting today and the last 6 doors done too. Better get going! 

It's 16 degrees this morning with a high of 58..I'll take it. Maybe snow Saturday! 

Have a wonderful day!
