Thursday update ......
Galley counter is in. Found the sink cut out from our kitchen remodel squared it off and added a little outside corner molding and it worked just peachy. Finished reinforcing the doors and added latches to the galley door and the spice cabinet. Cut the carpet to fit on the sleepy side and installed pergo laminate flooring in the galley and entryway. I worked on folding down the rear of the roof. Even mocked up a faux window to get the design committee's O.K. Tossed in the mattress and called it a night.
Gotta fix a turn signal that is not working (bulb socket I think) Install a license plate holder and light and install the key latch on the walk in door. Then we are gonna go campin Saturday night. :thumbsup:

5 week to the day start to campable only 2 more years to completion :rofl:

Thanks Auntie M

It's a strange affliction but it keeps me in the yard and has slowed down my women chasing a lot as well.

all that's left is to paint an advert on the side like a lot of old barns had.... Hmm, maybe advertising for building little barns.....

Well its back to work this weekend. Clearance lights were not wired in for the parade so I got them wired. And installed GFI. This turned into a snipe hunt see Miriam' electrical thread for details on this goat ropeing.

Sunday ol' what's her name and I will be shopping for paneling and ceiling treatment. Weather permitting I will be refining my throw it on at the last minute taillight wireing. It was a cobbled mess for the parade.

Had things falling out of the cabinets on the road. With an inflated air bed this is ok UNLESS it has points so this made me nervous. I found the child security clips for cabinets so I got a second burst of enthusiam and went out and installed them now everything will stay where I put it.
(Well at least in the cabinet that I put it in .) :lol:
