and first came the bathroom.....
*
Our order of 8020 aluminum finally arrived and Tim has been building the supports and shelves for the garage as well as the foundation for the few walls we will actually have. Of course, as the space/walls are laid out the infrastructure of the holding tanks, the wiring, the plumbing etc all have to be put into place as well. Currently, we have a huge puzzle that we are refining as we go along.

Yes, there will be walls around the toilet/shower room. Obviously, it will be a "wet" room so the walls will be PVC board and the whole space will be waterproof and sealed.

The garage is coming together! Pretty much everything is in and accounted for - adding one more retractable hose to the lower right and we will need to cut 2 access doors for them in the side wall.
(Yippee - cutting more holes in the van!) We even ended up with some additional storage space.
Our next priority will be to get the heating system up and running so work can continue no matter what the weather has in store. Tim had set a goal for himself to be able to take a shower at the end of October....... so that means getting the bathroom totally enclosed and completed.
Fingers crossed.
a working garage!

And we did take a very small breather from all the work..... we promised Rosie a little road trip.
She has been (not so) patiently waiting for a ride in the van so we finally took her on an overnight to
Cape Cod. And no, we did not "camp" in the unfinished van.
Ready for her adventure!
