Hi ya Karen, I'm newish to your channel as my Hubby and I bought our first caravan in January. Have loved going back to the beginning and watching your journey. I feel so inspired by your willingness to muck in and give anything a go. I personally like the green think its a great choice. However can see how Hayden might be sentimental about them. Lovely to hear that you are enjoying your new community and meeting some like minded people. Thanks for the content ❤

Hi Karen.Another great update. Reese is so animated,curious.. scrumptious 🤗. Great time painting. I am going to paint my blue shipping barrel..to look like a wooden coffee been barrel that whe havd in Jamaica . Then use it to store floor clean mops, house and yard brooms so they dry in the breeze. I had same issues living with 10 wooden speaker boxes was a nightmare...but in later age he now has his own dedicated music room...I just close the door🤣🤣. I am so glad you are making friends in your community, with same interests as yourself 👍🥰. Keep the positivety going K...no day is perfect..just have to focus on the best parts.

Check with the gardeners group about a 'water-witcher' or a 'dowser'. They can locate underground flows of water. Invite one out to your property to locate a good spot for a well-driller to come and dig you a well. Then you just need pipe and a submersible pump & generator and your water worries should be over. Get estimates on the drilling. That color paint blends perfectly with the landscape.
