We've got our new trailer - YIPPEE!!!

Check out the crazy AWESOME fridge!! (No, the purse didn't come with the trailer, I already had that).

Shiny new countertop.

New mattresses & they prop-up like a chaise lounge, too :D

Great custom magazine rack & booth seating

ORIGINAL Formica doors.....and they reverse to Pink Boomerang Formica, too!

Great detailing!!

& Awesome custom clock, too!

YEAH!!!!!

Now I need to make the curtains & bedspreads, which will be made out of various different vintage Chenille.  It'll probably take me a month or 2 to get it done, but I'll post-up a few more pictures of when I do get those done & then we;ll be focusing totally on the HOUSE PLANS!!!

50's Travel Trailer almost DONE!

The Windows are in & the exterior is DONE!!

Next-up.....the booth seating, the screen door, cabinet doors & mattresses will go in.  He thinks he'll be done with it in about a week - can't wait!

We're getting closer to becoming Texans - just ordered our new license plates for the Jumpin' Jackalope Ranch:

Trailer Skin & Paintjob!

First-up, the skin goes on the trailer...starting to look whole!

& then the paint - sure looks pretty!!!!!

The Travel Trailer gets closer!!

It's been a while since we shared an update on the travel trailer, so here goes - quite a lot of progress of late!

First up, the kitchen is tarting to come together - with fabulous vintage Pink Boomerang Formica:

& more walls go up!:

And more of the interior of the trailer begins to take shape:

& then the insulation & brand new, very WHITE exterior skin goes on:

NEXT-UP:  The exterior paint job!!

Refinements

Back to the house plans, with first cuts at elevations, more details added, etc.

Here are some views of the house from different angles:

And scale of the home & bar area relative to a 6 foot tall person to get a feel for ceiling heights, etc.

& now back to the computer model of the house exterior - here'a an ariel shot:

& the front from 2 angels.....

& the back:

zoomed in....

Quite a lot of progress, with next details starting to flesh out the interiors.  Though we're taking a break from more design work over the Holidays.  Not much more on the house plans for a little while :)

We hop you're enjoying seeing things take shape!

& Back to the Travel Trailer...

Some great progress on the trailer - check out the awesome Pink & White Cabana Stripes on the floor - LOVE them!!!  & the refinished side walls are up, too!

The Moai Icehouse layout

Here's the first pass at the layout of the Bar, too.....with MANY cocktails to be enjoyed in this space!

A Few Early 3-D Drawings

We got some very cool, very early, drawings done by our architect's intern in a program called Google Sketch-up. We can look at the house from all angles. This is when it starts to get FUN & EXCITING!!!

These are obviously very rough & early, but we think pretty cool, as you can start to get a better feel for the space.

& you can CLICK on the images to make them bigger, too :D

Here are a couple of the Front of the house:

& the Back of the house:

Travel Trailer Colors

We picked out the colors for the exterior of the travel trailer last night, which was really FUN!!

The dominant color will be white, with stripes & design done with these.

Seaside Green - from the 1956 Studebaker Line:

For the Pink, my first choice is "Elvis Rose", which is the color that was created for Elvis' Pink Cadillac.  This is my back-up color.  The refrigerator will also be this color.

Sunset Glow Pink from the 1957 Oldsmobile line:

And, finally, the Yellow - from a 1961 Rambler - Waikiki Gold:

Back to the house plans...now with furniture!

We're inching closer, with some revisions to the floorplan & starting to add in how furniture would fit into the spaces of the main part of the house.

It's starting to feel a bit more "real" at this point - yeah!! :)

& Zoomed-in.....

More meetings with the architect next week to refine things even more, and we should also be seeing new drawings for the exterior & tiki bar soon as well.

Stay tuned!
