The coach is FINALLY done and we are in the process of cleaning it and moving back into our newly remodeled motor home. We should be on the road again in a few days but we wanted to show off the new look. For those of you who saw the coach before, this new desk is where the couch used to be. Look at all that storage!!! The couch fits perfectly on the other side (behind the passenger seat).

In the bedroom, we had the flat screen TV moved to the cabinet where it is now and a whole new cabinet with slide-out drawers and extra storage built in. You can never have enough storage in a motor home and we have increased that by at least 20%. Of course we have also pared down what we're taking so the combined effect makes it seem like a lot more. But most important, we have put our stamp and personality in the motor home and it feels like our home now. We made some other changes too. The TV in the front of the coach is now on a swing arm and flush with the rest of the cabinets. Ken was always bumping his head on the corner of the TV when he entered the motor home, and now that is no longer an issue. I had pull-out shelves built in under the stove and over the sink so that really increases the storage in the kitchen!
On a lighter note, I got to experience flying in the small experimental plane that Ken has flown in. Rick (the pilot) came by last Saturday and we went flying. The plane is very small and we flew with the doors open in order to see better, wave at boaters on the river, and have some fresh air! I held onto my shoulder straps but enjoyed seeing the valley from a different perspective. What fun to try new things. We buzzed the house coming and going and Ken took pictures.

Our next stop will be Mt. Rushmore!
