Propane light works great!

Hitch cleaned & repainted. New safety chains, hitch lock,
propane tanks & sidemount jack installed

Rear access door refitted with vents for a/c

A/C didn't cool as well as hoped. Needed additional venting
and added a fan to help circulate the air. A small boxed area was added
for insulated flexible duct and route through. Ductwork was then run behind the refrigerator and into the closet area.

Electrical box moved to accomodate the a/c ductwork. Second a/c
vent added above the closet door. The a/c now works well enough
to hold cool in the direct sun at 100 degrees!

New vintage light added to replace broken one in rear.

A/C ductwork takes up small portion of the cabinet under the fridge

The refinished sink and new paper towel holder

New curtains & curtain rods. Kids voted to keep the tie-dye on the back
bed as they said it suited the vintage look.
