I was a little nervous about getting it through the gate because we have watermelon growing across the driveway (when I planted it on the side of the drive I didn't think it would grow). It was a little bit of a tight squeeze, but made it just fine. Unloaded and circled through the yard to get it positioned where I want it for building. Worked like a charm. Best day so far!!

Trailer has come home!
The trailer is home! Went and picked it up from Big Bubba's Trailers. Had it custom made, so it is exactly what I needed and at the price I wanted to pay. SOOOOO happy with it and so very excited to get started actually building. Also went and picked up lumber, siding, plywood, metal roof panels and a few odds and ends. Figure that while I had the trailer hitched up to the Jeep might as well. I'm sure I was pushing my weight limit towing with the Jeep but it all worked out just fine. Got home and unloaded everything, got the tarp on, and the rain started. Perfect timing. Silly me moment...I went out after Mom went to bed and bonded with the trailer for a few minutes. Today was a really good day. Everything went how I wanted it to go and although I didn't get to everything on the list I feel very grateful to have everything I need to start my build. Let the adventure truly begin!

Trailer
Well, I DID IT!! I bought my trailer this morning...or at least I ordered it and paid for it. Big Bubba's Trailers in Ogden is building me a trailer. It should be ready in a week, then I will need to get started in earnest. I'm sure you've heard the saying, "Do something every day that scares you." Well, I've just done something today that scared me enough for a whole week at least. On the other hand it is a very exciting step toward my dream of tiny house living and I am more excited than I know how to express! When I pick it up next week I'll post some pics. In the meanwhile, I need to get a few more things so I can begin right away when I pick up the trailer...like plane the redwood and buy insulation for the floor and a bit more lumber. WOW! It is really happening.
