I watched your short video about sleeping at a truck stop(my introduction to you) which I enjoyed so much I went immediately to your web site to check you guys out. I carefully choose to watch this video next since it was your latest and definitely caught my curiosity. I'm a 75 year old retired teacher and YouTube addict. Your enthusiasm for life and adventure is exactly why I explore my life and why I adventure each and every day. I vacationed with my wife and two kids in a souped up VW van(Country Homes Vanagon) back in the 80's exploring the western US and Canada. Your imagination and creativity remind me of my 4 and 8 year old grandkids. I am so inspired by you two and will follow your old and news adventures.

The official model name of this bus is the Blue Bird TC/2000 FE that used to be a handicapped school bus. This is the same exact bus that Shawn and Ash have lived & traveled in. They do have a YouTube channel, but their last video was posted over 2 years ago when they biked a marathon around Acadia National Park.

Congrats!!! That's such a awesome bus! 😍 So much more space! I want something like this oneday! 😁 Enjoy the new schoolie bus life guys! 😎🤙Keen to see more adventures with it. Stained glass section for the bathroom for that gap. Will still let natural light in. Or do wood slats that open to still let air through. And for the steps and wooden wall, penny round mosaic tiles 😃 Also make the inside of the steps storage with a lid that clip in place for loose stuff 😉 And put curved sunk in lockable pullout shelving otherside👌or just open shelving. And a new bit of carpet ☺️

Wife and I converted a short top chevy express to road trip in a few years ago and have absolutely LOVED every adventure it gave us. 4 years or so later, we’re ready for a bus ourselves.

Love it, can't wait to see what else you do.
Entrance, do stair storage
Front dash, do plants but open storage on top as well.

Was a pleasure to meet you @ Pismo State Beach

Congratulations on your new bus. I'm super excited to see your next adventure. I love the color you picked for the kitchen cabinets.

Lots of bus builds will never pass inspection in California lol
Time to move out of state ! Nice bus

[christopherstimpson]

Awesome 🙂 With a front engine, check the rubber strip around the inside engine cover (dog house). That's the most common entrance for mice. Aluminum tape can repair tears and also stick it back where the metal fasteners are broken. Don't use duct tape as it can't handle the heat there. Looks like fun!

It's so good, Kelly and Sam, I love it. Yes, more room for you too. That's what you needed. And Antonio Nellie can just stretch out and beat everywhere so good. I'm so happy you know? I'm a die hard so here I am can't wait for the next drop. Take care of bees safe and stay healthy.

[AbilityToBeAwesome]

Ahhh congratulations again new friends! I really need to have a binge watch of all your old vlogs this weekend. But omg I love how your kitchen turned out so much. I bet it’s going to look awesome next to the beach someday. Also Dibs if you guys ever want to sell this bus in the future. ❤😊
