so, here's what i did.
i bought a camper. i've been wanting a camper for a very long time, and now i have one.
my future brother in law nate say's everything we (me and a group of friends) buys turns out to be fifty bucks. he's kind of right, here are some examples:
my bow. i found it in a pawnshop all set up for fifty bucks
my (and josh's) donkey. fifty bucks each.
my three wheeler(s) 2 3wheelers for fifty bucks.
and now, to add to that list, my camper.
it's an airstream. it's about what you'd expect for fifty bucks i guess. actually, an airstream has enough aluminum on it to recycle, and get like... three hundred bucks from. but the fella selling it just wanted it gone. i was all too happy to buy it.
since i bought it i've only done a couple of things.
the thing has been nearly gutted. the beds are out, the table, the bathroom is just holes, but now because i got it, the shower holes are gone, and the biggest difference, is when you walk in, you don't die from hauntavirus. sarah and i usually camp in a tent. it's cold, it's uneven, and the worst part is there's not a good spot for our son now. well, even if we never put a bed in this camper, or fixed it up, there are immediate advantages, we're always on level ground, we have a stove, and a great shelter. not to mention if i get foreclosed on ever... we have a place to live!
really though, all it really needs is laminate flooring, and beds, maybe i'll take a look at the heater in it, see if i can fix it, and perhaps the electricity.
i have no pictures right now, but they'll come!
i maybe sold sarahs poor old car. she bought it her sophomore year in highschool for a thousand and a half dollars, she rebuilt the engine, and has babied it along into the new century, and now, while it's not officially sold yet, we have another set of interested persons. this car is a 1967 ford mercury cougar. it's a pretty rare classic muscle car. the first year they made them. sarah loves it so much, she won't sell it unless the people promise they're restoring it to some degree.
that's my quaint little old house in the back ground! you really can't tell how white trash we are in this picture. though, if you're a city inspector, you do realize i'm violating a very sacred law in wellsville apparently, (according to all the warning letters i've got!) and that is, that we don't use that vehicle, and it's not parked in my drive way!
i'm going to put my donkey in my back yard i've decided. i'm definately going to do that. i've started to put up posts for the fence. it won't take much. also, those pine tree's have got to go. i mowed the lawn today, and was afraid. a person shouldn't have to be afraid of pain when they're mowing the lawn! but first i've got to replace them i guess. with leaved tree's. the kind that don't ruin the lawn, and my life.
i gave yodi a hair cut today. i should've had someone else do it, cause now it looks like a yodi bird was attacked and killed (and dragged off of course) by some sort of large cat, in my front yard. very large tuft of white dog "feathers" is all i'm saying. he's a very fluffy dog.
the 's doesn't stand for "he is" it stands for "he was" now you know.
sarah is gone today, having only one camera, and one vehicle, i haven't had the opportunity to upload any photo's for anyone who's interested in seeing them. nor have i been able to do anything today. probably why i was so productive around the house today.
