We have ordered the curtains from Silver Threads, in a cream colored fabric. She found what I wanted right off the bat. Thanks Tammy. The inside of Alumalodge is kinda dark, so this will help lighten it up.
Also the gaucho is pretty icky. It is the original one. any suggestions on recovering or replacing? The foam seems out of shape and lopsided, and my mother woulda loved the fabric. Kinda reminds me of her sofa when I was a bit younger. Gotta go away!!
Well, the crew of people who did not run will be here shortly for the garage cleaning and sorting party. God help us and pray for me, we are attacking Terry's garage.
Marie
Oh by the way, happy mothers day to all mom's in alumaland.

We desided on the above name, if it aggravates us too much we can delete the "d" and "e"...
The cushion on the goucho and I seem to have something in common...
Wow! Terry sorry you have to move but into an airstream is a step up!
I love full timing. I have travelled more in the last last year tanthe rest of my life!
Congratulations Terry and Marie on your new aquisition. It will be ship shape in no time at all. Terry just make sure you don't overdo it. I am sure you are wanting full speed ahead but don't blow the boiler. One step at a time, inch by inch.... anything is a cinch. You guys are a true inspiration, thank you.
Hope to see you down the road, maybe in Perry?
Mac and LInda

I am pretty sure we won't make Perry, even though it is almost in our back yard.
I am still trying to make chicken salad out of chicken droppings, if it doesn't work we can always sell the new trailer. Hmmm.... I must be getting old, calling a trailer that was built when Richard Nixon was exiting the white house "new"...
Nice find, looks a lot like my 73, only your exteriour is much nicer. The inside layout really seems to work well, the girls like the big powder room in the back. Best wishes DG
Moving right along! Max and I poke around so much cussing and discussing that it takes us forever to get something really done (ie: droopy ceiling fixed) that we are really in your dust! Congrats, but I winced at the description of you scooting along the floor to do the repair-yikes! Take time; take care ~G

For those who don't know (like my friend at Boater's World), Rot Doctor is a 2 part epoxy resin that, when the surface of a dry rotted piece of wood is properly prepped, will flow through, into and around the fibers of the wood, strengthening the damaged area, and (hopefully) stopping the rot. It is best used with a pre-treat of chlorine bleach, which starts killing the rot bacteria, and is continued through allowing the Rot Doctor to dry (cure), and then adding some fiberglass resin to level the floor. The repair is almost indestructible. Unless, of course, you drop a piano on it...

Oops, forgot to tell him I sold the piano to the neighbor.

Also, I ordered a new fridge for Bertha today, I'll let you know how that part of our ordeal goes when it arrives.
We're still trying to decide on a name for our new trailer, "Queen Mary" seems to be taken, and my nomination of "Tin Turd" was shot down almost before the words left my mouth. Maybe "Tin Twinkie" or "Alumilodge". The latter kind of tangles my tongue, and comes out "Alumilog". The name "Goliath" is going with our Overlander when it is "hopefully" picked up this weekend. How about "Alumisub"?
It survived its first severe thunderstorm today, with no leaks, so that name may work. If it had leaked, we could have named it "Titanic"
Just read through to catch up. What an adventure the two of you have begun! Terry, I'm amazed at you. Knowing what your type of fractures look like fresh, I can't believe less than 6 months out you are as mobile as it sounds. I know you feel pain, but you must have a mind of steel. For heaven's sake, be careful, STAY OFF THE ROOF! Put the ladder down, back away slowly. . . .
