Well now I can cry.
We haven't even taken our new TT to the campsite. We are supposed to pull out tomorrow. Lots of rain last night. Dinette window leaked. Not the side that opens either. No noticeable seal malfuncti...

Not attempting to be insensitive and I hope the best for you in getting this mess resolved but...........Lose a child or spouse to cancer and then get back to me about devastation.
Yeah. I have. :( (not cancer but something else) It's a big part of the reason we got this TT. To try to bring some joy back around here. It's a lot of money to spend to have one rain destroy (the water damage, not the weekend out) not to mention the disappointment of just more things gone wrong.
I'm just trying to bring some happy to this family but its just so dang hard to at the moment. Not to mention I still need to figure out how to use most of this TT after our less than spectacular walk through.
Yes, I know. Grand scheme of things water damage to trailer isn't the end of the world. It's not as extensive as I thought. The pillows and carpet are sopping and I envisioned the worst. Thankfully they had a cheap plastic film on most (not all) so they remained dry. The wood pieces can be replaced easily and so hopefully the walls and floor suffer no long term damage from this. I've had a basement flood when a visitor left a window open and the damage (and cost to repair) was crazy. The drywall, behind the drywall, the subfloor and flooring. I guess I had flashbacks to that ordeal. It looked the same- water running down the wall, everything soaking. Ahhhhhh. Not good memories, that's for sure.
But you are right. It's not devastation but *I* was devastated to have walked in and seen that water everywhere. We didn't lose our home but dang- these things start costing as much as one and they take a long time to save up for. ;)
