Good Morning, Pheww I feel like I'm in Florida, 90* and over 70% humidity. I'm still not complaining, (I DISLIKE WINTER!). We are under a flood watch for this afternoon, expecting up to 3" of rain, . we don't have to worry, I'm at the TOP of the mountain. Trying to finish up the wiring so I can start on the inside walls. plus need to cut in the holes for the hot water heater and refrigerator. Oh yeah the water fill and outside outlets too. Then I'll start on the lower cabinets under the Tot'r, those door openings need to be cut in also.

Good Afternoon, Well got some more wiring done, installed the water heater, not hooked up just into the hole, and sealed. From the angle of the picture it looks crooked........it's really not.

You seem to be having the same hot humid weather we are getting in Niagara Falls. DH had to put in a new Water Heater in our RV.Long story and many trips to the hardware store and Harbor freight. Finaly got the gas line to stop leaking with all new fittings. It was the original unit from 1990 that was producing some rusty water. It didn't owe us nothing. The only thing left to replace when it goes south is the furnice. Kinda like your totter with so many rebuild parts. Glad you have AC to keep you comfy. Went out camping at Lake side beach state park along lake Ontario. Nasty biting flies. I used deep woods insect spray on them,very efective. Keep up the good work. Won't be long before you are finished.

Hi Sam, Thanks, Yup the weather went from cold to hot seems like overnight, . Good to see your out camping with the bugs, . I would not be able to build these if it wasn't for the donors, the cost of buying the equipment is staggering. The life cycle on most items is quite long.

Terry,

Won't be long and you'll have this one done too. Hopefully you and Eleanor will be able to take some time and travel a bit. She has to be close to retirement like me and looking forward to it.

I still enjoy watching this thread, Thank You! Lynne

Good Afternoon, Hi Lynne, I think we will be done with most of the Tot'r, It might go up for sale when it's done, . It was always being built with that in the back of my mind, those types of trucks are great for race car haulers, horse haulers ect. this is why it will be fully self contained. The Toyhauler may go also, it serves it's purpose as it was originally designed, as a mobile motel room, when I started that's all we wanted, now we probley will at least be snow birds or full timers and the TH would be a little cramped for that purpose. Eleanor's retirement plan is more than likely 5years at the most, conditions could always change. Soooo I could have time to build or rebuild a class 8 into a motorhome, I'm looking for an existing one that all I have to do is repair or remodel, I want to tow a good size trailer.
