A visit with Matt and Eva, progress on the motorhome :) working at home

After lunch on Saturday we headed out for a visit. Matt and Eva bought a house about 40 minutes from here and they invited us out to take a peek at it.  Matt took Ken's locker on Ken's last day of work and Matt's first.  We've seen him a few times over the years at different events. 

                    😊They have an awesome long driveway and beautiful place! 

The place is gorgeous and sits at the foot of some huge mountains along Highway 50 corridor.  It'll be a vacation spot for them for the next 10 years or so, and then it will be their home. Thinking ahead as prices are only going up in the area. 

We spent a good couple of hours visiting with them and their friends who were there to paint the interior.  I enjoyed my visit with Eva, she is so easy to talk with.  They invited us to stay for dinner, but we're not much for night driving. Next time we'll take an RV and spend the night :) 

Sunday we enjoyed a leisurely morning and then I finished up the curtains for the motorhome. Got the chalkboard primed and ready for some writing, which I haven't done yet. Ken worked on the "toy hauler". The toilet was leaking the last time we had it out so time to figure out the problem.  Just a seal, ordered it from Amazon. 

Later in the afternoon we talked with Karen and invited her over for a fire and some barbecued hamburgers.  John had sent her some beautiful flowers for Valentines Day so she brought half the bouquet to share with us 💗

Karen's flowers she's sharing with us and in a cool glass milk jug 😍

We had a nice fire, visit and barbecue! She said she's been craving a burger and she got a good one for sure! Tater tots to complete hahah. 

This morning we woke to cloudy and cool conditions, seems to be a pattern lately.  It was a clean house type of day, gotta be done. Ken got the generator going on the motorhome and a vent back in over the bed.  He also got the bed, dinette and all that stuff put back where it belongs. 

It's getting closer to being able to take out.  There is a water leak, which we knew when we got it. With weather being the way it is he doesn't want to unwinteuize it for just a day because night temps require it to be winterized. We'll wait a few more weeks until we have warmer nights. 

When we were in Carson City the other day we stopped at AAA and got their package for towing that covers RVS so that makes us feel better if something were to happen. It is 32 years old now. 

It's looking pretty good inside now, we're really liking it. Just the dinette I've got to figure covers for that.  Of course Ken says it's fine the way it is...uh no! LOL. 

The chalkboard ready to write on...

Priming the chalkboard...

I loved this material as soon as I saw it! 

Karen gave me these two pillows..I loved them because we've been every place but Acadia..

Dining room..just the cushions need redoing..Table's wet not messy haha. 

These are the curtains for the "bedroom" bunk area...still need curtain rods..

Hopefully this next week I can get it finished..we shall see! Tomorrow is a Walmart and Raley's day so that day will go fast. I can't believe it's the middle of February already!
