After leaving Galveston Island, we headed towards Mobile. With a quick overnight stop at Walmart, we finally made it to Meaher State Park, for the 3rd time in 3 years.
We just needed one night with hookups (hello humidity)! Jonathan actually surprised me by running to the local Fresh Market and grabbing some flowers AND desert! Thanks, babe!

Okay, yeah. We don’t really have a 'living room' but what to you call a space that is the dining room, master bedroom, office, and theater room? After the response I got from the What's In Our Kitchen post, I figured maybe you'd like to know everything we have, one 'room' at a time!
This space is used the most in our tiny home on wheels. During the day we (usually) put our dinette table up. This is typically where I get a lot of my work done, where we play cards, where we eat, where the kids work on projects and hang out. Jonathan’s office is in this space as well.
So, what's in this living room? That’s a great question and I’m about to show you. Take note though, things in tiny spaces change quickly. I am still regularly trying to figure out the best places to store things, but for now…here’s whats in our 'living room' area.
"How are your curtains hung?"
We knew we wanted curtains instead of blinds for a few reasons, but mostly because it just feels like home. Softens up the place and adds a bit of character in this metal tin can.
It was really hard to find curtains that we both agreed on. I tend to like a bit of a pattern and I LOVE color, but Jonathan likes to keep things simple. So, we settled on these curtains from West Elm.
I had a lovely lady from my home church cut them and sew them to the correct length and we couldn't be more pleased with how they turned out. Hello velcro, for easy removal if we need to wash them! They're light and airy but gives a little bit of sass with that geometric pattern.

I guess it’s time to update on where we have been the last month on the road! We’ve been so busy playing catch up from the renovation that I haven’t taken the time to record where we have been. Although its mostly for our benefit, so that we can remember our travels, I know some one out there may find the information helpful as well.
When we left Indiana we drove 3 hours and overnighted at Kentucky Horse Park Campground.

After our visit in Mobile, Alabama, we packed up and headed to New Orleans! And guess who we saw there!!
We met up with Heather and Jeremy (@takethatexit) and their 2 kids! It’s like we enjoy hanging out with them or something...
We had a great visit over Cruze Farm’s Coffee Milk, Ginger Molasses Cookies and Red Velvet Cake. We always enjoy our time with them. We only had one day together but I’m so glad we are both headed west and have plans to keep meeting up along the way!
I had high hopes for NOLA but, to be honest...
New Orleans was probably one of my least favorite stops so far. I don’t know how else to describe it other than I just felt like a really dark place. I didn’t feel safe in the city walking around with the kids, the people we ran into at shops weren’t very friendly and just had a negative vibe the whole time we were there.
We camped out at Bayou Segnette State Park based on a recommendation from Ditching Suburbia! Thanks Mike and Crissa! Free laundry sounded too good to be true, but it was! However, with the laundry room being free, we found it very difficult to time it to where we could actually get any loads done. Everyone had the same idea and beat me to the laundry room every day! We only were able to wash half of what we needed to there but we did appreciate the free washers and dryers there.
The park itself was actually pretty cool. So foggy in the morning.
