doolan family bus – pt 5

by Kaylah Stroup

Bus update time! Check out previous bus conversion posts here – 1, 2, 3 & 4.

Another Sunday of bus work in the books! My sister in law and I concentrated on making cushions from the original seats. My dad and husband worked installing the water tank and getting it all ready for the toilet & sink. All while my brother started building the back wall!

Just the addition of those few boards for the wall makes the bus seem so different! I still have a hard time envisioning all the wood finished, and what it’ll look like with the sliding door, counters, cushions, etc but I can now see the basic layout. (Well, shoot, I’d hope so since it’s mostly done in that sense!) It starting to feel real!

In this week’s video I tried to talk a bit at the end so check it out, and let me give you a little tour of the bus! The video also includes some bonus footage shot by my ten year old niece. So cute!

I know I hit you with the same thing every week, “it’s coming along sooo fast!” But really, isn’t it!? xoxo

haha somehow I keep reading these posts when I am on the computer while my 2 1/2 year old is eating. He is now deeply invested in your hair color and bus adventures lol. Today he was so deeply concerned that bus wasn’t “going” haha I guess he will be super excited once it drives off for it’s first adventure lol

[…] There have been talks of building a second one but for now, it’s just talk. I’ve got my fingers crossed next summer brings another zipline but perhaps we’ll just be too busy cruising the country in the bus… […]
