Divinity Rising – The Rv Conversion
Things have been crazy busy since I got the RV! I’m having to run to keep up!
The great news is I have obtained a sponsor who will be doing the inside renovation for me! Driskell Home Repair Service! (Stay tuned for the video of the conversion!) Mike Driskell is an awesome guy who really puts his heart into his work and has been known to support artists on more than one occasion.
Turns out the inside of the Rv needed more than the wallpaper stripped. There had been a previous leak, so we’re going to completely replace the walls, cabinetry…and the flooring needed replacing as well…although we’re keeping some of the framework, the bathroom, the appliances, wiring, because they’re all great!
The engine needed some work, too! I found an awesome mechanic who is living his dream as he opens a shop this week! He was tired of working for people that ripped others off, so Chris and Daniel are opening D and S Auto Repair! Congratulations on creating your dream! I can’t believe the awesome price they gave me for all the work he’s done so far:
Timing was way off, he fixed it.The vaccuum system needed to be rerouted, the throttle cable was replaced, the fuel pump needed to be replaced – all this for less than $150 (including new parts!)
They are extremely passionate about what they do and he really knows his stuff, especially with older models.
Next, I need to replace the windshield wiper motor, the blades, have the oil changed, and replace the fuel line, which we’re going to have to hunt down in the junk yard! WHOOT! That should be fun…heh…. a huntin’ we will go…a huntin’ we will go…
In addition to moving a bunch of stuff into storage, we’ve been hunting for an office space and added a member to our family.
Meet Chase: I can’t say he’s the brightest dog I’ve ever met, but he sure is loving! He was a narcotics force trainee reject…
Now, I see why. It took about twenty minutes to get him to hold still for this photo.
I like to look at him and say “You got hooked on the goods, man! You’re off the force!”
He is so full of love and hyper..he’s extremely friendly..but he is dense.
He was a birthday gift to Cody, and they’re perfect for each other..They run each other wild and wear each other out.
Thanks to your help, I will be naming the RV “Divinity Rising”, which really suits it. My story is the story of Divinity rising within me and I want to use the Rv to travel to meet and work with other people who follow their dreams as Divinity Rises within them. I’ll be featuring those travels right here.
