Downsizing

When we started this lifestyle of living fulltime in an RV, we went from a 1900 square foot house to an RV that was around 300 square feet. We really had to get rid of mostly everything to be able to live inside of that tiny space. But we did it and have lived in that fifthwheel for almost 5 years.

Now we have a new challenge ahead of us. Going from 300 square feet to around 80 square feet. That is approximately the square footage of our Hobbit House that we are taking to Disney via Alaska. Now those that remember, we did take the Hobbit House to Colorado for a month last year to see how well we could live in it in preparation for our Disney/Alaska trip. It was doable for a month. This will test us because this Disney/Alaska trip will be at least 3 months. Now if that goes well we plan on continuing to live in the Hobbit House all winter somewhere in Arizona. That would mean at least a 10-11 months inside the Hobbit House. So this is downsizing to the extreme.

This is our dining room with the bathroom just to the right.

Lisa found time to remodel our kitchen. She added that backsplash.

This is our bedroom. Lisa is worried about creepers. I don't know why.

We are up to the challenge and are a little giddy at the prospects of what lie ahead. In a matter of just a few days we will be on our way to one of the biggest adventures of our lives. I am not talking about an adventure like me trying to fit into a pair of skinny jeans either.

This trip will be amazing and to be honest a little scary. Scary of the unknown and the amount of miles we will be putting on Gandalf. We are over 13 thousand on him in a matter of months. Like the saying goes though, "Suck it up buttercup!"

"Gladys! Get the hose, that creepy guy is looking in our window again!"
