Sorry for the long delay between posts. No excuses to offer you and no excuse is really justified.
So stuff has happened but at the same time not so much.
How have I spent the last, what has it been, a month and a half?
Well, I've been doing a lot of thinking, planning, writing, editing, and rewriting my plans. I've never sat down and actually contemplated or even really thought about what specific repairs I had or wanted to do on the RV so that's exactly what I've been doing for the last month or so.
I drew up a plan of attack, read through it rewrote parts of it and then broke it down into a schedule, how many days for each repair or group of repairs, and then I printed it out read through it and did some more editing.
I was somewhat happy with what I had and took today off to see what really needed to be done as well as do something with an almost eight hour day that I planned to spend at the RV.
So, today, I took care of most of the leaky side of the bed-over-cab area but did not complete this task as I've decided to do something not planned but that will suit how I plan to use the RV a little better. The driver's side of the bed-over-cab area should no longer leak as I removed the damaged wood, put in a new piece of lumber, cleaned up the edges around the walls and roof, and then applied DiSeal Tape to all of the exposed edges doing my best to pull all of walls and roof together for a nice tight fit and seal. Time was running by too quickly and with the changes I want to make to the RV I temporarily re-installed the window as I have a specific remodel design in mind and will do that during my next visit. The window should be okay as I also applied Diseal Tape around the window opening itself. This area of the RV should now remain dry.
The tarp I used to cover the RV in an attempt to protect it from the rain is not doing such a great job of it. when I lifted the tarp, pools of water were sitting in some low lying areas of the roof, imagine my surprise and disappointment seeing that!
Well, that's it for now but I plan to be and should be less tardy in making further posts to the blog and that also goes for Edith and Eugene.
Thanks for stopping by!
