The project..

Adam bought a 2006 Ford E250 cargo van, and now he's transforming it into a camper van (self-made Sportsmobile) for himself, Liz and the dogs (and maybe the cat). Liz is photodocumenting the project here, start to finish!

New windows!

Adam is pretty amazing--he installed one window after work on Friday and the second Saturday morning! We have a lot more light and air circulation in the back of the van now. Check it out:

Hole in the van! 
Will it fit..?
Whew!
Sweet window. They tilt open, and have screens to keep the bugs out!
New window on the other side, too. 

In the meantime, I took a few pictures of non-van related things:
Amazing huge sunflower in our backyard! (There are two!)
CUTE sleepy cat
Slow roasting tomatoes...lunch today was zucchini pancakes, chicken apple sausage and roasted tomatoes!
Today, Adam has removed the seats and flooring from the front of the van in preparation to insulate the floor and then install the carpet. We bought the carpet a while back from a carpet store in Vacaville--they had a scrap of the perfect black/gray/tan outdoor carpet for about $80!

No seats, no floor, no more ugly console
Added some more foil insulation around the new window in the back
And, as usual, the dogs napped....
Dude lovin' the sidewalk
Carex prefers the shade

This week, carpet! Also the swivel for the front passenger seat should arrive so that's also on the list of to-do's. Stay tuned!
