"OLD BLUE" Bus That is"


Hello everyone. I have a new project I have taken on, Like that is a surprise to any one who knows me. I have purchase a great Big Blue Bus from a local church. I plan to work on this and make a camping R.V out of it. The proposed plan is to live in this for a year traveling around the United states finding work wherever I come to rest. I have always wanted to do this for like ten years now. I finally have puchased it and I have to go thru with it now. I will still go to the Upper Peninsula the summer and canoe around Lake superior. I will just use the Bus as a camping stop and rest for a couple of days before continuing on. Well I will document the conversion of this Old Blue here on my blogs and on Youtube. I think it will be fun to follow the progress of the work being done by you all.

Here is a picture of my new addition to the crazy things in my life. Old Blue is a 1989 international desiel. It was owned by a church and has just under 200,000 thousand miles on it. It is very clean inside and has of course all the seats still in it. The bus just passed its DOT inspection and is in good running order. The Engine is a 466 international. Well I guess that is all for now, and I will keep you posted on the progress, or nonsense as it unfolds. I will pick up the bus next week and will drive it north to park it at my Parents to start the transfermation. This is the Northern Wanderer saying Live for Today. !!!
