I've done this project three times | Van life reality

[@DoreenGregory-sj3df]

I’m glad that you and Chrome are still good friends and he is letting you squat at the shop. Thanks for helping move stuff to the new shop. I’m sure Chrome appreciates the help. Nice to see Loren helping with the move also. Good friends are a blessing.. Take care of each other always.

[@MtBakerlife]

Well said! Totally agree

[@MtBakerlife]

So awesome that a subscriber is helping you get your new heads! This is a beautiful and caring community!! Reminds us there are many good folks in our world. Sending love to you Emi, and sweet Miss Kitty 🐾🐾💚💚

[@blueman5924]

Same guy that got Chrome his engine, Alabama Ford dealership parts guy. 👍

[@DonnaNichols-ep5de]

I think miss kelly is enjoying being able to run around in that big space without being leashed. 🎉❤

[@kaytoka717]

I think Kelly is enjoying being boss over the shop. 😂😂😂😂

[@peacefeline1107]

I love seeing your little community working together. I just watched you all working together to help Chrome move❤. Love seeing what Kelly is up to in the shop. ❤❤

[@cherrylm2]

Kelly likes the freedom she has there 😀

[@terbear6739]

Hope all goes well with van repairs!

[@ThecatladyVAN]

Awe ❤️ thank you. Have a beautiful day

[@deejay4837]

Another great guy.....ALABAMA TOM! How fortunate Emmi is to have such a great network of friends!

[@belindaboudreau9178]

Haha too cute Miss Kelly strolling by you and brushing up against your head and messing up your hair. 😆 Miss Kelly making this video her own.

[@margarethutchens5463]

I think Miss Kelly thinks she now runs the garage. She's good at supervising and checking to see that everyone is staying busy!. I'm not sure, but she might secretly consider Mr. Cruzie a slacker based on that look she gave him at the end.😊

[@joycecollins5796]

Good helpers everywhere!!! Hoping you get parts soon!!! Hugs to Misss Kittyyy Boooo!!!❤❤❤

[@wudzen]

Kitty looks content and happy to have a stationary existence.

[@darlenemiller847]

JUST LOVE CRUZIE AND KELLY. ❤ THEY MAKE MY DAY. BE SAFE!

[@kaytoka717]

Miss Kitty is the boss of the shop. 😂😂. She sure is having a good time patrolling (probably hunting mice and bugs) and supervising the workers (someone has to make sure Lorne is taking good care of her home). 😂😂😂. Sorry it has turned out to big much bigger job and the down time is killer, but your van will be much better and will serve you for a long time so worth it. A great time to make some changes, updates and finishes while you are there - you can do some cuts outside. A little bit of cutting outside in the afternoons should be ok - just keep the cutting window to about 1 hour and plan ahead the cuts you want to make so that you can do them pretty much all at once. 😊❤😊😺

[@JayneW911]

❤ it’s so nice to see you and chrome were able to stay such a good friends. It’s refreshing to see adults acting like adults.😅 may we all take our queue from you two!❤❤❤👍🏻🙋🏼‍♀️🌴🚐

[@lakehousemama1955]

Kelly was certainly the star of the show!! I always enjoy watching you work on your van...

[@rachfish]

"Let's pretend that's what we wanted." 😂

[@donnamaco1]

He did say that the shop could be a place for friends to come and repair their vans. Therefore, it is the least he could do for Emi.

[@douglaswhite1306]

Your van is like going to the dentist. Once you open up and say ahhh, they find more things wrong.

[@IzzyOnTheMove]

Is the Alabama guy as cute as his accent? Lol 😊 i'm going on my first date next week after ending an 11 year marriage. Woohoo! And what did i choose for that? A 1922 Gastby themed party in Montreal! Yayyyy 🎉❤ and all my prospects are 20 years younger than me 😅

[@alohatvn]

It's so cool that Chrome lets you stay at the shop until your van is repaired 😊😊❤❤.

[@RoaringRanger]

This is probably the best situation where this could happen

[@sueschoers4974]

Good opportunity to do some house repairs and a freshen up. If life gives you lemons, make lemonade 😀

[@bostonterriermomakasandy9722]

Kelly was a little sassy there when chrome took her out in the box of shirts.😂🐾❤️😂

[@expectamiracle.406]

Kelly is so cute scurrying around on the floor.

[@chrissydnor151]

Ms. Kitty is the funniest LOL

[@padraigmortimer4142]

If your looking for content while waiting for your repairs to be done I have a suggestion. Last year you talked about your struggles with anxiety and it helped me so much, it’s been a very long year and I’m still struggling with keeping stable. Maybe you could share your journey as there are more of us out there than you may realize. I do very much enjoy your van updates as well as your nature content. Also montage videos to music of your photography and videography would be cool! 😊

[@ResPieces]

glad how you all are working together...im sure Kelly is happy exploring the space and hiding , and chasing insects or dust bunnies...lol...thank goodness you have time before the shop is given up...and i guess helping the boys in old and new shop will give you some kind of activity or distraction from being stuck in place... Luv, Re.

[@sue9252]

You have a good support family Emi,👍 hi to the furry ones too ❤🐕🐈

[@luztirado950]

Kitty is having a blast!!😂😂❤❤So cute!!

[@LSChestersMom]

So great you are taking great care of you home and how wonderful all the support you have in getting it fixed properly.

[@doriskarnila2906]

LOL Extra Special Kelly Approved Shirts!!

[@traveldreamer4616]

Miss Kelly will enjoy jumping and patrolling the shop while you are there. She has probably eaten a bug or two already🤣💜. Hoping that the parts come quickly after they are fabricated. I know that you are yearning to get back out and about. Chrome needs the packing help from you and Loren. It will make time move by fast. Take care. Spend some time out in the sun with Kelly. 💜💜💜

[@equynenergie]

Hang in there Emi …. You have Loren and Chrome helping out and it will be good to go for summer. Good men ❤️😊

[@juliehoot3916]

Kelly and Cruzie! Yay! 🤎🤍🤎

[@LittleMo777.]

Miss Kelly enjoys frolicking in the shop!😊

[@thenextlevel2888]

Wow, how fortunate to have a friend like Chrome, for taking you in to his shop for all this time 🙏🏻Be safe and hope you get up and running soon.

[@BethHoltsman]

Obviously, a newer sub who sees it that way. I hope for more for them.😉

[@thenextlevel2888]

@@msanabria8159 LOL, that’s what she said. I’m hoping there is more also and obviously, there is more🤔😹 They’re a nice couple!!

[@Yahoo12]

They learned a lesson keep your relationship private. Friendships are 😎 cool. Chrome is a lucky man.

[@dianneyoungblood689]

Their lifestyles and personalities too different. Friends is plenty.

[@claudiakarl7888]

They were friends before and now - and in between they were a couple.

[@darlene6670]

Miss Kitty thinks Chrome is the best'est, he has all that cool stuff she can get on top on!

[@ButterflyKisses.]

Like everybody else, oh thank goodness for Chrome allowing you to use the shop. And even on the brighter side you're going to have news and more miles put on a better engine.😊

[@douglaswhite1306]

Chrome is a champ for letting you use his shop and shop van. Thank him for us too. I'll be thanking him too but I don't think he reads our messages very often.

[@karencastle6002]

Hoses / Champs/ belts small things that should be done. Has your wipers been good?¿

[@sheilabartlett6044]

How frustrating Emi, the positive Kelly is having a great time running around the shop. I hope you have your wheels back as soon as possible.

[@PamelaLipscomb-b1k]

Hello Kelly & miss kitty.😊

[@ladylilac4363]

Sorry you are waiting on parts. Always happy to see Chrome in your videos! 😊

[@kellybenhart3244]

Kelly Kitty loves it there. Well its good ypu are getting it fixed by the right mechanic.

[@blairinhemet]

Kelly finds her perch and rules the shop!!

[@patriciasancho8239]

Hi there, I’m glad to see your van is getting fixed slowly, but surely and yes, it’s nice to see chrome and Cuzzy and Loren too.. stay safe my friend you home will be back on the road soon..🏔️🚐🐾🐾💜😊 maybe during the summer you and chrome can do a video for us.?😊

[@nancysweigart4123]

The relationship between you all is awesome. Jeffie is on his way. That will be a good thing.

[@rachadventuresinliv]

You are making the best with the down time. Painting the entire panels is what I've done to seal all wood in the van if you don't have enough you can always use what ever paint is kicking around Chrome might have some even spray paint is better then none. Kelly hiding is just her natural instincts so much going around her, is go hide too 😂 Next adventure hopefully will be soon in the backcountry having a campout with good friends 😉 Much love 😘😘

[@user-Bee3939]

Kelly likes the shop!🐈

[@belindaboudreau9178]

Lots of high places for Kelly to go and keep a “cats eye” on things ! 😺

[@Kathiewinkle]

Love your channel 🎉 100 K subscribers this year for sure

[@Riley_sd]

Love to You and Miss Kitty ❤️❤️🌹

[@Neb.333]

Soon you’ll be on your summer travels 😊love seeing you and Chrome together

[@robinexley-williams8175]

Too cute! The panels look great. It was a great surprise to see two of my favorite people sharing the screen. I’m so glad you van is on the mend! Take care, ❤

[@kristinfaison1397]

Hey Emi I'm glad you're getting everything fixed, I've been watching your channel for a while now and I am so impressed that you fixed things in your van yourself I enjoy your content and the adventures you take us on stay safe God bless 🙏❤️ from Philadelphia PA

[@blackbob3358]

Indeed, cover the whole of the wood with plenty of gear. Min two coats. Those back doors will get their fair share of "weather".

[@andyrichey1192]

Nice job cat lady. I’m here watching 8:32 PM. I’ll catch you on the next one.👋👋😎

[@joycegiasson5219]

Keep your chin up, 🍂🍃🐈

[@angiemoses130]

My Dad is from Ohatchee, Alabama met my Mom through her cousin's boyfriend who was stationed with my Dad while in the US Marines. They will be married 61 yrs this yr in July. He settled down here in WV after he got out of the Marines. Love my Alabama history

[@csimon1951]

You should get your a small garage too. Kellie was having a blast running around there! Lol

[@zak-a-roo264]

Great work on the panels, etc, couple small vents in them will allow some air flow, panels in a car have them to allow moisture evap. It's good to paint BOTH SIDES and spray anti mold all around and inside door. Mold is INSIDIOUS, spreads spores like an aerosol spray, so once you get it, you have to assume it will return, keep checking as part of a routine.

[@TheRentVeil]

Emi, I was telling Chrome about a great family owned Canadian company, ROLEF, that makes amazing van storage products that would fit nicely on your doors.

[@roseshafer258]

I am glad that Chrome is letting you stay in shop while Loren fixes your home. Kelly is enjoying the space I think.

[@jeanjones7770]

That's a wicked pair of scissors!

[@tonijohnson7941]

Now that Chrome is giving up his lease on the garage you’re at, maybe you could rent it! It would be perfect for you to work on your van in a dry location

[@MsSoozy]

Fingers crossed NO MORE ISSUES 😉 Empty shop? I thought he had that till October? thanks for leaving the mechanic.

[@MimiMalone]

Emi, why don’t you rent the shop with Joseph, Jeffie and other Nomads that need a place to land?

[@Thom1973]

Good day Emmi ....... isnt it funny chrome had so many troubles getting parts and was laid up in that very shop for how many months lol ........ i hope you get your parts quickly

[@Thom1973]

at 2:59 that is 1/2 inch to possibly 3/4 inch plywood not a 1/4 inch sorry

[@RebaKennedy]

Well, if you have to be stuck waiting for parts, you're in a great place for it! Miss Kitty is obviously having fun. Thanks for sharing all this with us -- tho I do miss your wonderful wildlife photography. You have real talent at capturing the outdoors in all its beauty.

[@laurencemarkwart3292]

Hey Emi, glad that you are getting things done it wont be to much longer it is truly sad that we cant get parts here in Canada, hello to Kelly she is so cute.

[@dawnmoriarty9347]

You are definitely making the best of things and seizing the opportunity to improve your van whilst it (and you) are dry and have spaces

[@lynnecarter4212]

Love those sideway runs kitties do. So adorable. ❤❤❤

[@robynfedalen1777]

I just giggle to myself when Kitty is running around and playing ☺️ I’ve always thought Chromes dog is so cute. Best of luck to you getting your van ready to hit the road again ❤️✌🏻

[@mythicalnomadadventure969]

When I was a child my parents told me.., "Two heads were better than one." So much for parents, huh ? 👍 Rock on 🙂. Say "Hi" to your retired DJ friend there.

[@user-kev-k5v]

Good for you Emily yes you go for it young lady 👍
