Finally, an UPDATE update.

So over the summer I had begun the process of doing everything I could without the vehicle, and then slowly started the tasks that I kind of really did need the vehicle for but could manage without, and then made huge steps that I probably shouldn’t have (like selling my old car and moving out of my apartment in New York) for the sake of being able to hit the road ASAP. My vehicle got delayed (again, again, again) saying it could come as late as the end of December (and maybe later) but then a few days ago, it said it left the factory in Texas and was on the way up to New York. Wild.

So please let this be the last time I write about logistics. Assuming all of the paperwork clears (and I’m not assuming ANYTHING anymore) then I will be driving back to where my family lives in upstate New York a week from today in the new car and begin the conversion.

The big steps will be:
-Measure out for a bedframe
-Measure out for bug screens on the windows
-Assess acoustics for acoustic paneling and bass traps for recording
-Begin building shelving and storage
-See if I want to put my refrigerator in the sub trunk, or if there’s another place I can put it and have a toilet in there (!)
-See what I can actually fit in the front trunk (trombones? Starlink satellite internet? Cleaning/cooking supplies?)

It’s mostly a matter of how to configure everything and what makes the most sense. I’m just looking forward to having the next steps be in my own hands again!!

Hopefully be back SOON with some new info.
