Everything really CAN come together!

We finished up "Brutis" (finally came up with a name for the AS) a couple of weeks ago. Finally I have some time to post the beginning to the end of interior remodeling (we're vegetable farmers & greenhouse owners). When we purchased Brutis, the floor rot was hidden by the couch & beds. I did know about one spot, but figured we could handle it! Lots of frustrations later, all leaks are fixed and floors are solid again. Brutis is now parked for a few months in LaPorte, Indiana for the hunting season. I spent the night out there w/hubby and we were toasty! Just got a Honda 2000 generator & she purred like a kitten.
The curtains were done by Silver Threads & are beautiful. The pictures don't do them justice. Thanks Tammy! We opted for carpet since most of our camping is in the fall/winter and it just seems alot warmer. Did linoleum in bath. Rebuilt couch frame due to rot. I have the nightstand in my shop now
while I finish up the new top, since the old top was ruined by water from the rear window. Just waiting for the finish to dry!

Nice work! It's a great feeling to be finished, isn't it? I know our trailer will still require tweaks here and there, but at least we can use it for camping.

Brutis is looking great. Hang in there and you will really get him back in shape.
