Building a wall for a space with curved sides and the wrong tools in your hands is challenging. (And messy.) This is the wall we created for the “Bed Fort”. Construction wasn’t exact, involved some cursing, lots of on-the-fly choices, some wine, and went late into the night a few times. But the end result is a bed at the back of the Airstream with an insulated wall and a raised person-sized door. (The only “cat-free” zone in the space.)

I’d consider it the grown-up version of a fort made out of chairs and sheets. Super fun to climb into, as it’s like a secret room. Eventually we hope to cover the pegboard with wallpaper, and use it for bonus storage space.

Emerging from a blogging hiatus with updated pics! This is the finished living room/kitchenette area. It’s where our mad Tetris skillz came in handy.

Stopped by the ocean to say hi. California beach in February is much like an Oregon beach in August.
