Suki our latest buy.

We flew up to Sydney and bought a Suzuki Grand Vitara 2 door (which we've christened "SUKI") which we drove back here to Albury and now we are slowly designing storage drawers etc. for the back of the "SUKI" after we take the back seats out.
Ofcourse we'll be towing SUKI behind the Motorhome.
I'm also keeping busy working on Doll making Tutorials to sell and teach people how to make my dolls.
I'm astounded as to the amount of work involved to get it the way I'm happy with, taking photos, editing them, explaining them etc etc etc, hopefully the finished product is worth it.
I was also chuffed to be asked to be interviewed for a profile on me and my dolls by Australian Doll and Bear Magazine which will be published in the New Year, I was asked many questions and asked to supply photos to be submitted, This kept me busy for a while and I was sent the final draft which was written beautifully and I was really really happy with the result

Caravan & Motorhome Magazine & DVD's, CMCA's The Wonderer Magazine surfing the net and youtube watching and reading about other's travels only strengthened our resolve and we wanted it more and more, so, we wait and we hope to get out there and get on the road and explore this magnificent country very soon.

Here we are Xmas and we're still waiting

Yes! we are still waiting for the house to sell! The owner of the motorhome we have got a deposit on has kindly waited with us and we'll be forever grateful for that.
We are both fighting the overwhelming frustration and depression. But trying to keep ourselves busy so it doesnt weigh us down.
 On the positive side we have has one more Xmas with our loved ones here in Albury and Ash has constructed a portable Cat Enclosure that we'll strap to the motorhome or Suzuki. He is so clever and has saved us over $1000 as that's what they cost to buy'
 This all folds up into a flat 4 inch thick unit, the climbing shelves all come out and stack for storage, I've yet to make a sturdy bag for these.
