Winter finally remembered the state of UTAH… and wow, did it make an entrance. ❄️ After weeks of feeling like the season forgot about us, a recent snowstorm has officially put our 5th wheel remodel plans on pause. The flakes are falling, the temps have dropped, and while the outside world looks like a snow globe, progress on the RV has come to a temporary standstill.
But if you know me, you know I don’t stay still for long.
While it’s yucky out there, I’ve turned my attention to planning mode. That means cozying up inside and doing what every remodeler does best during a snowstorm — online shopping. Amazon has honestly been such a blessing during this process. Instead of running to a million different stores in slippery conditions, I can compare faucets, shower sprayers, and cabinet trim right from the couch. My card is on file, delivery comes straight to the RV, and the boxes feel like little presents showing up at the door.
Lately, I’ve been eyeing new faucets and a sleek shower sprayer upgrade, plus some fresh trim for the bedroom cabinets. The remodel is really starting to take shape in my mind. One of the biggest surprises through all of this? The storage. I still can’t get over how much space we actually have. Once everything has a proper place, we won’t feel so cluttered. We’ll finally be able to tuck things away instead of stacking and shuffling them around.

The windows are now covered, which makes it feel like we’re in full renovation mode. The bedroom is next on the list for demo and prep. No painting will happen until the entire 5th wheel is taped, protected, and ready. I’ve learned that rushing the prep work only leads to regret later — and we want this done right.

I’m still going back and forth on kitchen colors. Do we go light and airy? Warm and cozy? Modern and bold? The good news is, with this weather delay, I have time to think it through. Sometimes the snow forces you to slow down in the best way.
Our goal is to have everything completed by May 1st. That date means more than just finishing a remodel. It means we’ll be ready to donate our current little beast to the shelter. Yes, we could sell it. Yes, we could make a few extra dollars. But for us, helping someone in need matters more.
Me Gone RVing Adventures has always been about more than travel. It’s about giving back whenever we can. If this remodel can lead to blessing someone else, then every snowy delay and taped-up window will be worth it.
Spring can’t come soon enough — but until then, we’ll keep dreaming, planning, and clicking “add to cart.”
