New Home

Well sort of. We bought this camper.

Doing a little work on it. It needs new tires, a good cleaning and testing of appliances. Helen and I have been cleaning.. lots of mice bodies and poop.. yech!!


Took me about a day to get the tail/turn lights working. Now I'm working on the dc fuse box. The plug was cut on the trailer. And I had to rewire the plug on the truck.. but thats another story.

We got the fridge semi running. It runs but it's not getting super cold. May need cleaned. Its gas/electric. haven't tried it on gas yet.


it has a stove and heater that are gas as well.. haven't tried those yet either. ah I see a pattern here.

maybe I'm just paranoid but I don't like messing with gas until I'm sure what I'm doing.. ie how the hell to light it.

there is a water leak to deal with.. broken pipe(s) dunno yet. I've also got to do some maintenance on the roof.

Ok so it sounds like piece of work but its really nice. It's a place to start.. stay dry/warm. Plus it's small enough it should motivate us to get started on a house sooner rather than later :)
