Well, this has been a piece of doggie doo for the whole day!I can't take pictures because someone was to busy playing on the **** computer instead of finding the charger for the camera, which was suppose to be in that NEW camera bag that was suppose to be big enough for 'everything'. I got a bunch of junk tore out but you will have to take my word for it! Capt.

Ok, I got the battery charged and will post a couple of minutes. Got all the wiring separated and ready to hook up tomorrow! I got the chemicals in and once I get the wiring snafu figured out. I'll take a picture of the new box and wiring. The kitchen and bathroom got the worst damage. [ceiling ,walls and floor]. The bedroom was mostly the ceiling, Duh, I wonder why with that hole in the top that ya could put my fist in??! I'm tired and am calling it a night. Capt.

OK, I've got bad news and more bad news. 1st, The Nikon died today and half of the pictures didn't come out. The other bad news is someone has got a hold of my credit card info and now I can't get any other Items until the new card comes in. Thats a big pain in the a$$!! Out of 15 pictures I got 6 and it will be at least 7-10 days before I can get it back. We had it checked out back in January. It just stopped!
I got the old bench out and the fridge out and started cutting the raised floor down for the new cabinet and the fridge will be raised up to that level as the new battery compartment will be under the fridge. Going from 1 battery to 3 All 29/31 series. Wow,I'm not going to know what to do with all the extra amps that we will have! When you see the pictures of that raised up dinette area you will see where I cut it down, And now it will be even with the fridge and that will save our toes for sure. I never have liked that area and it's taken research To figure out how to make that area work for us.Under the fridge will be a new battery box and on that raised area, once it is cut back I am building a cabinet with counter space all the way across. It should give us two drawers and two cabinet areas where we can put more of the heavy stuff in the kitchen. That area that was the storage under will be narrower but I could never get anything in and out of the back of that storage area anyway. So It should be easier to get things in and out now.
Thats all for today. and I'm still a little sore. Hope they don't have to keep the camera long. Will let you know, Capt.

Got the first coat of mold remover on and that stuff acts like Hydrogen Peroxide. Every place that was discolored foamed right up and you could see on the walls in the bathroom It just melted right off. Used a mask and still had a problem with breathing.tomorrow I have to cut back to 8th strength with water to use on the tile. I'm kinda sick with sinus and that mold is the culprit.I got another day of it and That should be it. With 90% of the carpet removed and what little I couldn't get out I soaked that part of the carpet.I should be able to go in tomorrow and not smell mold. The tiled floors are all that remain. After that I can start putting it all back together.I will have to get the sealer that keeps the mold from forming sprayed on and it dries and that should be it. Sorry, no pictures but the camera bit the dust. Hope to have that fixed and back soon. See ya later, Capt.

Well, not to much done today. I'm feeling bad And my sinus are all out of wrack. I'm using my respirator but I'm still getting sick so go figure. tomorrow I can take a little break and go down and get the heads and parts as they are done and ready. I'll do that most likely next week..If I feel up to it. Later, Capt. Frown Hammer

Sorry to hear that you are feeling poorly. Get yourself well soon. The camera is a gadget that can be replaced. You are not. Sorry to hear about the CC info as well, I hope that gets resolved to your satisfaction, and quickly. Be well, so you can enjoy that freshly rebuilt Coachman!

Capt. There is no rush. Summer is not here yet. I'd hate to see you get real sick and not be able to finish it to the point to use.

We used ours all last year with the inside unfinished. What you see in my pic's of the inside is how we are useing it now. Hope to get busy this spring with ours too. Just need a little warmer weather.

Take care and get better. There's a lot of summer fun ahead.

Thanks Michcruiser60 and sanjay R too. I'm really bad today and have had a sinus headache all day long. I didn't go into the coach much and I hunted down the book for our coach as it has all the wiring and specs and then I have the P-30 motorhome chassis book to give me the torque specs. My eyes are very light sensitive today and I'm laying down in the tent with my sun glasses on.I don't think I will get this all done this year but next fall and spring I should be able to get it finished. We are waiting for the end of may ?? I think before leaving on the road.I just want to get as much done so we can move back in as this tent..has no air- conditioning in it!! And it's bloody well hot today! I think they said mid ninety's! It's breaking records everyday out here.We should have at best maybe 80' not 90's. and the nites are about right 50's and 60's.
Anyway, tomorrow is another day, I hope to kick this and quit wasting daylight!! Laugh
Later all, and thanks for care'in, Capt.Dan Hammer
