I am hopeful that we can get back into the world again this year and I hope you all will not judge me to much for my homemade van camper. I made it into what I wanted. A comfy place to sleep and an outside(ish) kitchen....
We had plans to do some extensive travel, but life got in the way so hopefully this summer we can to some a bit closer to home. PNW.

Hubby likes to stay home and work in the yard. I like to make 'stuff' quilts, embroidery, woodwork(badly), and I love to cook sometimes good stuff sometimes not so great. I like to go camping and kayaking and walking, getting to old for full on hikes, I like to ride my bike, hubby likes to play chess.

We travel with our big dumb love of a dog. Who is just about the best traveling buddy. He is 140 lbs of serious protection, except for kids they can climb all over him and he is in heaven.
