We're not naked anymore.....



We're not a snowball anymore!

After much delay, deliberation, wind and cussing, we've started adding decals to the Imp.

(If you'll remember, one of the first things we did was take off all of the lame factory decals.)

NEKKID!

It took almost 4 months to figure out what we wanted and get them custom ordered from a couple sellers on Etsy. Then we had to do a full cleaning of the exterior of the RV to make sure that all of the gunk and residue from the previous stickers was really gone. That took a while :)

Finally, we started stickering - and realized that we needed a ladder.  We "acquired" one and got to it.

First up were 10 little kitty paws - 5 on each side of the RV.  Then the heart and paws on the door.  Then, the husband took the plunge and tackled the 2 foot panda and 3 foot kanji on the passenger side walls.  There was much cussing and a large usage of blue painters tape.

 The wife is impressed with the results :)


The kanji means "Wanderer" or "Drifter"

Then, before we could install the back and driver's side decals, we had a Texas weather problem and all stickering stopped.  (Basically, it got hot and windy.)

Soon after that, we left Texas and headed to Colorado.  (Traveling and staying in campground - neither of which are conducive to applying decals.) 

Finally, we landed in Fort Collins and the weather cooperated.  (We also borrowed a couple ladders - thanks Zach!!! 😀 )

A four foot kanji on the driver's side and a world map on the back!
 
The kanji means "Adventurous Spirit"



Big markers on places we've lived!  Yellow dots on some of the places we've visited - we're not done yet!!!!

We still have plenty of room to decorate, so we're planning and plotting and designing the next round of decals.  We'll share once we've got them up!!
