April 25

This weekend allowed for quite a bit of work on Ziggy. I started on Saturday by cleaning and scrubbing the entire interior. I cleaned every drawer and cupboard. I pulled the knobs off the oven to soak and removed the front panel off the heater. The heater front has a little rust so I'd like to repaint it but I can't seem to find beige heat resistant paint. I can only find it in black.

On another note, after looking at these pictures over and over I finally feel like there is some serious progress going on. Yes, there is a lot yet to do but there is evidence of a lot of work to this point.

Spring 2016

Lots going on, I have almost all of Ziggy's paneling done!! (Pictures coming soon) I have a couple more pieces, then I can start working on the Gaucho and Dinette. I decided to switch out the reading light on the back wall and replace it with an outlet. I have all the supplies necessary for the new plumbing, including the new water tank. I've repaired the hand pump faucet. I've also decided on a new table top. The old one was so warped that it was really unusable. Rather than using the original brackets to secure the table to the wall and yet allow it to fold down for the bed I will be putting it on folding table legs (the same kind my tent trailer had). This will also allow me to use the table outside if desired, I think this will also reduce the weight to the front wall of the trailer.
