TIME TO CLEAN HOUSE


AUGUST 5

Kim and Jamie borrowed the trailer this weekend for a camping trip with the Ellis girls at Navarro Mills. They had a great time but were invaded by ants. That was a good reason to do a major cleaning once we got the rig back home. Jenna tackled the inside - emptying cabinets and drawers, washing and reorganizing and purging lots of unused items. Meanwhile I spent the morning working outside. The hot Texas sun has caused many of the decals on the trailer to peel off leaving a sticky residue that attracts lots of dirt. After scraping the remains of the decals I used a special cleaner to remove the offensive residue. I managed to finish before the temp reached 100 and spent the remainder of my day helping Jenna inside. We finished around 3:00. We now have a very clean (inside) trailer. Tomorrow I'll give the whole rig a thorough washing and clean out the underbelly storage area. Then it will be time to start loading up for our departure. Just 3 weeks to go!

  1. Truly, it was a time to clean the trailer with such indications. Having ant infestation means there must be something that draws them. How did the plan go? I hope you have a safe trip, Gilbert! If you have cleaning projects in the future, I hope you consider getting cleaning tools to make the task easier and more enjoyable. Thanks for sharing!
