MyAway build - Updates for space usage & organization

[Hikerjohnd]

Just incredible! If you are not an artist/designer you missed your calling!

[S. Heisley]

Thanks, Thomas & John. I am not an artist but I am naturally creative. But then, any forum member here who builds a TD or TTT is creative. It's a good group to associate with. A lot of terrific building ideas and techniques are shared on MikenChell's TD & TTT Forum

Ya but how can you tell when it is swept out

[S. Heisley]

That's a good one! Not being able to tell can be an advantage. I chose a rock/sandstone-look tile floor in my house's kitchen for that very reason but it backfired on me a bit. For over a year, my new neighbor would visit and she always thought I was a bad house keeper because she thought my floor was dirty. One day, she dropped by just as I was finishing mopping and said, "There's gray in your tile!" Then, we had a good laugh as she explained what she had thought.

To answer your original 'sweeping' question, Black Oaks (aka. Kellogg's Oaks) are native to California but are fairly rare around campgrounds; therefore, any other leaf found in the trailer could be swept out.

The things I miss when stuck on other stuff...Dang girl that is fabulous!

Might borrow this...

[S. Heisley]

Thanks, Aunti M. Now, you'll find yourself looking down at floors in stores, etc. and wondering who made theirs out of paper! I know I do that and am sometimes surprised at what I find.

It would be fun to see how many visitors are going to bend down and touch the leaves!

[S. Heisley]

I still bend down and touch the leaves! When I was making them, I would forget they were fake and try to pick them up by the stems.

Keep it going...wee all love to watch a master at work!

Oh, Rod....Thank you, but I'm no Doug Hodder!

[Steve_Cox]

Oh, Rod....Thank you, but I'm no Doug Hodder!

There is only one Sharon Heisley. Unique, creative, highly intelligent, fearless, and not Doug Hodder, thank goodness.
So glad she is here.

[S. Heisley]

Thank you, Steve, my friend. I do think God threw away the mold after he made me...probably scratched His head and said, "What the blankety blank was I thinking!"

By the way, work is not happening in the garage until after Thanksgiving. We are having below normal temperatures and, not only can I not paint but also, my body isn't used to the 30+ degree drop in temperatures in about a week's time. It's supposed to be 21*F by Wednesday morning.
What can I say?! I'm a bit of a baby....Don't like it too hot or too cold.
Temperatures should pull back up in about a week, I hope.

[Steve Frederick]

Oh, Rod....Thank you, but I'm no Doug Hodder!

You don't need to be anyone else. You're doing a fabulous job as yourself!
I really love the floor!..And everything else!

[S. Heisley]

Wow! Thanks for the vote of confidence, Steve!

[StPatron]

Absolutely stunning, Sharon! I like it lotz!!!

I admire how you took the basic concept and expanded on it, thereby creating something personal and unique. Another great idea of yours well executed.
