Red and the S&S live again
We left on the 19th for our new adventure and due to all the construction on 395 in Cali we arrived 2 hours later than planned at Goose Lake CG. The WORST skeeters I've ever seen in my life were there to greet us. We were going to stay for 2 nights to unwind but the skeeters killed that idea VERY quickly. We struggled through the night trying to sleep with the constant onslaught from the skeeters, but the tent got over-run and we packed up early the next morning and headed out.
Red and the S&S had been sitting for almost 3 years in the side yard of our sons house, they were in terrible condition to say the least. Over the last week I have gotten all systems up and running in both units and Red will go in Monday for some needed work before the trip back home. The ceiling in the kitchen area is missing due to leak from the solar panel, it wasn't caught till spring, so the damage was extensive. The ceiling panels were removed and everything was dried out, treated, and sealed. The framing structure is in good condition, so we just need to replace the ceiling panels. While were at it we will add some more light to that area since it has always been rather dark at night.
We are presently camping in the S&S in the front yard of our sons house while visiting and getting the rig ready to go back home. We missed the 'ol rig and are happy with the buy-back and Molly, our newest companion approves of it completely and has already mastered the stairs and getting in the bed.
We will be leaving on the 2nd with the Ranger in tow on a trailer. We look forward to "The S&S Restore/Update Thread" part 2.
