That is something to be proud of right there buddy.
Yes, talk about raising the bar. Tiny house with garage. The executive suite on wheels sir. You need a butler now!
Are we going to be able to get you out of there to ride?


Thanks Tommy! I wish I could afford a butler! LOL someone to keep my KTM clean!

Will make no progress this weekend. Taking the weekend off to go on a 3 day cruise over to Nassau, Bahamas with some family and friends (actually planned 4 months ago). I'll get in at least 2 Scuba Dives on the reefs or shipwrecks.. and have some great food for sure. The R&R will be good in any case... Martin took the weekend off last week... so I am following his lead! :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

It'll be back to the build next weekend though... I have a deadline of a Nov. 4 camping trip to Devils Den Springs on the SantaFe River in North Florida (opportunity just came up and the wife wants to make the maiden voyage). I am going Scuba Diving in some fresh water caverns... Never done that, but going with an experienced instructor... so what the heck. Should be like visiting the Carlsbad or the Meramec Caverns... but under water. ;) ;) After that.. going to get some good trips in this winter to Ocala NF for some dirtbike/dualsport riding and camping... Tommy... make sure that KTM is tuned up!

Don,
After all the work you've put into your CTC you deserve a few days off so enjoy your trip. :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup:
If the wife is off next weeknd I may plan a short trip to a local state park just to see how things go, if not I may haul the CTC up to my hunting lease and set up, then if the wife wants she can come up.

Don I will be ready. It looks like I will be up there a time or two before you are ready. Next week mid 80s high, lows mid 60s. Almost perfect. Looking at the dew points also.

Thank you for the switch. Pic when finished.

Its good to get away, Have fun!

I made it back. Very nice three day cruise to the Bahamas. What a great dive I had in Nassau. Dove 65ft on a shipwreck and was visited by 7 reef sharks. They were about 6 to 9 feet long... Not too intimidating. . Beautiful animals up close underwater.

Well.. I had to do something today in the spirit of getting this thing done soon.

I added the aluminum trim to the countertop and the bottom of the cabinet face. I also got the drains in the sink. My goal this week is to get the plumbing done during the evenings after work and maybe some more trim work.

Maybe no trailer to work on this weekend? Tommy and I are on the coast directly east of the M on 2AM Friday. Still has plenty of time to change and a dither east or west by 50 miles could change alot... but we are in the three day window which is usually in the ballpark.

flboy, Howdy;

Best of luck to all of y'all over there. I have a brother that lives and works in Coco Beach.
He's shuttering his place and plans to "live" at his work place (a major Hotel), till it blows
on up the coast. It's his first since he moved back to the East coast from Colorado.

Turned uugly in Montana, too. Freezing temps this am and late tonight and tomorrow and Thursday. When you see these giant land hurricains that cover thousands of miles, batten down the hatches. They can hang around for a while. 145023 they have that counter clockwise rotation that brings the cold air down the divide and you just cant shut it off. Next thing you know, toronado outbreak in CO., or KS or OK when the two air masses come together. Hang on to yer hats. :NC
