Lovers of Life

There is me and my honey... look at them eyes!!

We have been riding together for two years now, and decided that we should experience riding with a trailer and see where it will bring us.  Life is so beautiful with my loving husband, one year we were married in May.. and Im looking so forward to the rest of my life with my beautiful husband.  We have so many dreams and plans for the future together.. this being one of them.. there are other things we like to do to, but for now I will focus on our summer and the trailer to show you how we started and you can tag along to see where we are going with our life.. So from here we can explore and remember how we started and where we went.  Its been great so far.. so hang in there and what us grow in love.....

Two of my favorite pictures.. with the love of my life.......


July 2011......it all starts!

Well.... look inside

Dan completed painting the trailer and putting things back together.. ohhhhhh I cant wait to go away and test it out, this is going to be so much fun.. and hopefully we got it all right this time around.. It always takes a few trial runs before we get things perfected.  So Im ready to rock!..

See from this side you see the Tv shelf that was added.. the light, the mirror and the curtain rod with the screen to keep the bugs out and the other for privacy...

  There is my man.. and on this side you can see the cloths rack.. that is going to be so useful, and the added light and the double rack for hanging cloths on.. oh this is gonna be fun.

There you can see the table that is connected to the wall, what a great paint job.. I love it!

 

Our smoke detector, another cloths rack and the light.. above the clock is our cool black light..

There is a black light in our trailer.. how cool is that...Im getting a freaky Jimi Hendrix poster to put up in side.. lol.. actually it is a nice soft light for the evening.. we could sleep with it on no problem.. That Dan is soooooo smart.. love love my husband...

Ohhh the painting begins

 There is Dan, hard at work again!.. gets up in the morning and decides.. hey.. do we have any paint.. and off he goes painting the trailer.  The wall in the back is the living room orange we have now, and the beige is the can we bought that was a mistint for $10... I will get a completed picture when its all done.

Everything painted by Sunday.. was the perfect day for painting, and man does it look good.. nice and clean, hopefully we can keep it looking good..... As you can see, there is a new shelf that Dan built on the right hand side.  Fits the TV and computer perfectly.. cant wait for the next trip.. if it rains.... who cares....!... we got all the comforts of home on the road.. what more can you ask for....

The Trailer

Dan is amazing.. look at what he has come up with.. When we decided that we could retire, we wanted to see what would be best for us.. financially, etc.  That is when we started looking at trucks.. and what a truck we got.. we have a 2500 Chevy Silverado and its clean and in great shape.  Dan took the time to undercoat the whole thing.. and its cleaned out and ready for retirement!  So all we have to do is pay it off.. lol.. then we were on a trip to Ontario and the highways there are very dangerous ona motorcycle, and it stressed Dan out with me on a bike behind him.. wonder he didnt get a kink in his neck, looking out for me.  Dan was very stressed, and we decided that maybe we should ride both on the same bike through the cities, so we threw the idea around about getting a bigger bike.. but we have a bigger bike.. just gotta get more used to my bike, that is all.. and then the trailer came into the conversation.. what a great idea!.. so we decided to check some out.. and waaaalaaaaa found a great low rider trailer made just for bikes.  Now that we got the trailer, we have to modify it so we can live in it while we are on the road.. This is the beginning.. so check it out... and stay tuned for updated modifications.. How much fun is this going to be!!!

When we break down the trailer

Nice and bare.. almost good enough to paint!

 All the totes fit in nicely and dont slide around because of the bed rails in place.

Once we fold up the bed, fold up the table, put everything in the back of the truck.. they its time to put the bikes in.. and then its time to travel again.... what a great time, and a great way to travel.. here is what it looks like when we have it all ready to go.... one more week of work and we are off again to Quebec.....

Opps.. and about the trailer..

 Dan made us a deck out of firewood.... was great.. if only the musquito's would have been sleeping!

The bed folds down and is great!.. home away from home.. Dan is making the fire to keep the bugs away.. didnt work.....

Well let me tell you... In this trailer we have a fold down bed, electricity, a table and chairs, a toilet, a hot plate to cook on and a fridge.  We also bring along the lap top in case we are within range of the internet.. so we can watch it if if rains.. I have movies and shows on it so that if we are in a bind, we can relax and catch up with our series... its so much fun.. so you can see here that Dan has made us a deck to sit on now.. once the door is open, he used fire wood to keep us up.. what a cool idea.. and of course while we were on this trip.. ideas were just buzzing around Dan's head.. so here you can see what it was like as we folded down the trailer to leave Maine and go back to Nova Scotia.. how cool eh!

We are at Tim Hortons and there is wifi here

Dan talking to his parents on the phone before we left....

Truck is ready to gooooo

This is the flower mom bought us last easter... last year.. its blooming this year.. or it was the day we left

Our home away from home

 This is inside before the bed is made... me still trying to get on the internet.. the whole vacation I was unsuccessful...

There ya go.. bed all made up with the TV and the computer all in its place... love it!

This is the other side looking from the bed... everything you need.... home away from home. 

 

oh its slow!!!

I thought I would test the speed out, and I would like to begin from our beginning of the trip.. so I decided to upload this picture.  Its our bracelets are what we bought each other on our last trip.. how sweet eh.. Since Dan lost his bracelet that he bought in Dupai that he bought ten years ago, we decided never to buy anything that expensive to loose again.. it has more meaning that we bought it for each other.. I love Dan's.. he looks so good in jewelery... so this is the beginning.. starting from our last trip...lol... I will try some others.. a guy just came over to our campsite asking me how I got onto the internet.. cause he has been trying for days with no luck.. so I guess I'm fortunate to even get in........ what a beautiful day it is here.. and it so relaxing.. I love life!!!! xo

Ohhh man no internet....

Hey, we haven't had the internet til today and it keeps shutting down on me...so I will try to do what I can til I get cut off.... sorry about that.  We are at old Orchard Beach at the moment in a very expensive campground.  And get this NO MOTORCYCLES allowed.. they didn't know we had bikes in the trailer... so we booked for three nights because there was nothing available.. this was our last resort and there is NO REFUNDS for any reason.. so we are stuck.  Dan is not impressed.. but we will make the best of it - of course because that is the way we are.  They told us we can park or motorcycles up at the front of the campsite.. which is really far away.. and leave them there - but not to drive them through the campsite!  Its beautiful riding around here tho.. so Im looking forward to getting out for a ride.  There are 750 people camping here in this one site.. so that is probably why the internet is so slow... so bear with me.. I can do this while Dan has his nose in his book that he is reading.. I love to see Dan read.. makes the mind stronger and he is really relaxing and enjoying it.. so that makes me happy.. so I will now try to upload a couple of pictures and see how that works now... wish me luck!
