We've been working on the new (to us) trailer almost every day for a couple of weeks now. I fixed the propane bottle hold down, the busted lid on the toilet, the stove light and fan, the bathroom light and fan, the front door, and I pulled the hot water heater and refrigerator out to try and repair them. Carol got a couple of cabinets and a new mattress along with a table lamp and some rugs.
The refrigerator and water heater were beyond help so we went to Sears and got a new fridge. We called an RV repair place in Newport and he came out and installed a new hot water heater.
We modified and installed the cabinets Carol found and put the new refrigerator in.
I framed and paneled a couch and we put some old cushions on it until we can find something better.
JC's daughter Brandy is going to be here in a few days to take care of her dad and we told her that she can stay in the trailer as long as she wants. We want the trailer to be livable and comfortable when she gets here. I think we'll just barely get it done in time!
The weather has been so cold that we haven't filled the water tank yet. I don't know for sure if everything in the water system works, and we've got our fingers crossed.
The weather is supposed to warm up tomorrow so we can troubleshoot that for any problems.
