In April 2007 we had sold our home in Michigan and moved into our new fifth wheel trailer to start our adventure of full timing and exploring in our RV. We started our blog so family and friends can track us and see what we are up to. You can double clink any picture to enlarge it.

New large slide floor

Back on August 2nd I posted 2 pictures of the separation of a slide wall and floor so here we are in Chanute, KS getting it repaired. The first thing service did was remove the slide then the slide floor.


Below you can see the rotten wood that was damaged by water. The service techs think it may have come in from the window above it so they removed it and resealed it.
While the slide was removed it was a good time to replace all the downstairs carpet.  There was no mold or water damage but after 10 years and the HitchHiker apart now was a good time.
The second day the slide floor was replaced and carpeted along with the rest of the downstairs so it was time to reinstall the slide.


Now it's time to replace all the trim and caulk everything.  We are having a couple other things done while we are here so it should be done Thursday (tomorrow) after lunch.
