Keeping the Bathroom Dry
I've struggled with finding a solution to keep the bathroom dry while using the tiny corner shower in our little 18' trailer. Just saw a solution online that I wondered if anyone has tried yet. It's basically a pvc tube that fits into a vertical channel on each side of the shower curtain, then pops into a pvc self-adhesive channel that has been adhered to the shower wall. I think it might work. Any comments? Here's the link (couldn't figure out how to post a pic): StayDry shower curtain sealer1.5KViews0likes9CommentsRe: Winnebago VIA 25T Loft Bed or Driver Side Door
Thank you all for your insights. You've helped us make a decision to choose the driver's door instead of the loft bed. I'm going to find a way to use a raised full-size airbed up against the sofa, covered with a mattress topper and sheets to make a quasi-queen bed for the occasional guest. Seems do-able. Happy Trails!728Views0likes0CommentsRe: Winnebago VIA 25T Loft Bed or Driver Side Door
BobR, you're right. At some point, I need to quit feeling like I always have to accommodate my children. They're adults, for heaven's sake. What was I thinking? If, and when, grandkids come my way, there's always the air mattress option, right?729Views0likes0CommentsWinnebago VIA 25T Loft Bed or Driver Side Door
My husband and I have narrowed our Class A search to the Winnebago VIA. Chose the 25T floorplan for it's twin beds converting to one big bed, and the 92 cubic feet of exterior storage. There is an option we could add that is the overhead "loft bed" over the cab for extra sleeping space. If we choose that, we lose the driver's side door. Without the loft bed, we gain the door and some extra storage cabinets in place of the bed. This layout has a sofa that does not convert to a bed, so essentially, we have only one sleeping area. Most of the time, it will be just the two of us. But on the rare occasion one or both of our semi-adult college-age sons decides to join us on a road trip, we would need a little extra sleeping space. Do you suppose we would miss the door very much? Or, without the loft bed, would a queen size air bed on the floor for the guys to use be the choice for most of you out there? I guess it boils down to how much would I miss the door on a daily basis vs. missing the loft bed on rare occasions. And then there's the whole resale value. Any suggestions?4.7KViews0likes12CommentsRe: Caulking Removal...
I accidentally smeared a big patch of caulk on the side of my fiberglass trailer while replacing the exterior shower. Nooooooooooo! At first, I couldn't get it off, but what worked was some Turtle Wax and an old credit card. The wax softens the caulk, and the card gently removed it. Also what works is any citrus-based furniture polish/cleaner (I used orange oil furniture polish).227Views0likes0CommentsRe: Looking for a campground near Bend/Redmond Oregon
Are you looking for convenience or awesomeness? If it's the latter, take a drive along the Cascade Lakes Highway and pull into Cultus Lake. Campsites along the water are huge and gorgeous. There are several other lake campgrounds along there as well, but Cultus is our favorite.166Views0likes0Comments
