The Great RV Makeover – Week 6
Progress…I love it. Well, Merle the Amish RV carpet layer, spent a day and half cutting, stretching, and laying the vinyl and carpet in our “new” RV. Man, it looks great and lightens up the interior a ton. I would have included a photo of Merle working on the steps but he wouldn’t let me take his photo (it’s an Amish thing).
Camped Out – by Brendan Bruce
My five year old son wants to go camping with me. I have a choice: I could run screaming to the garage and bury myself in an “important” project like scrubbing the Rorschach-like oil stains from the floor, or I could take this chance to bond with my little guy and let him have a blast.
I’ve never liked camping. My idea of roughing it is buying generic toilet paper, and I’ve even been known to go so far as to purchase day old croissants. I’m not saying I’m not a manly-man… I mean, I can build stuff, kill bugs and I’ve yet to meet a pickle jar I cannot pop open in less than three grunts – and oh yeah, I don’t eat quiche.
Top 10 Ways to Prepare for the Flu Season
- Proper hand gear — latex gloves or a hazmat suit
- Proper Footgear — surgical booties, muck boots, or hip waders
- Proper breathing gear — Industrial gas mask or shoot a squirt of air freshener up each nostril followed by a big cork or clothes pin
- Install plastic on all pathways from beds to the bathroom. Better yet, remove all the carpet in the house.
Familyman Tattoo
My Florida, surfer-pastor-friend Chip M. is a one of a kind dad. While in Jacksonville, he showed me one of his favorite tattoos. Wow!!! I told him to send me a picture, so I could share it with you. Here it is!
The Great RV Makeover – Week 3
Well, we continue to make progress (whatever that means) on the new FM3. Merle (the Amish floor covering guy) came over and said it looks doable. He plans to lay the flooring on Oct. 12. Now all I have to do is have everything ready for him when he gets here.
Got the bunk beds roughed in and now all I have to do is make them “shine.” They aren’t exactly spacious, but I think they’ll work.
The Great RV Makeover – Week 2
Well, after hanging the wall paper in the main cabin
area…removing the wallpaper form the main cabin area…and rehanging the wallpaper in the main cabin area, it’s looking good.
I can’t believe how much there is to do. One task leads to 3 others. Tonight an Amish guy who works in a local RV factory is going to give me an idea of what’s involved in laying new flooring throughout the coach.

To Bethlehem – The Christmas Game for the Entire Family
Several years ago, I looked for a Christmas game that would allow me to interact with my kids, laugh and act goofy, and help us focus on the real meaning of Christmas. I couldn't find one...so I made my own.
