Maude's frame came home this past weekend! It was a really short 3 weeks for Tim Moore at AHK Fabrication to get her done! I can't say enough good things about working with Tim. He was super patient with all of my questions and helping us to figure out all of the different options that we had to choose from. Thanks so much, Tim!!
Maude has been parked behind our personal camping trailer (Harvey is his name ;) ). In order to get Maude's frame back into place, we had to move Harvey out of the way - making room for me to get a rare from-the-front photo of her!
Mike's backing in Maude's beautiful new frame. He's freakin' good at it :) I suppose this was pretty easy since he's had lots of practice backing Harvey in!
Maude's frame back in place!
We have some painting to do on the frame to keep it safe from moisture. You can see a small bit of rust already forming. We'll wire brush it then paint it. The cross members are all galvanized steel, so we don't need to worry about them!
We have also been spending a bit of time this week researching the water systems for Maude. We'll need fresh water, grey water and black water tanks as well as a toilet and two sinks! We started to feel overwhelmed by the amount of work to be done before we can lower her aluminum shell back into place. We've got to figure out all of the plumbing, electrical and propane systems, which go under the flooring. But no worries, we'll get it all figured out!
Thanks for keeping up with us on Maude's progress!
Until next time <3 Becca
