Using the last dry weeks in the year, I painted the roof of the camper, using an elastic type of roof paint that worked pretty well but rendered the brushes I've used to a useless punky hairstyle. Now we hope the winter rains won't leak through anymore, like they'd been able to do in the back and shower before.
The broken shower roof window is replaced, also are the two vent caps. They're pretty cheap online and easy to screw in. I've helped many people with their campers to their comfort. This way, I know how to do this job, with which materials, and how much time each little part of the job will cost.
Inside, the back of the camper was pretty much rotten wood. I took all the rot out, and replaced it with new wood that I first protected against rot, to not have the same problem again. I took out the old battery and checked the electric wiring, which still is functional.
Ilene painted the interior white, so we don't have to look at plastic 'woodprint' and ugly blue kitchen 'tiles'. White makes it look a bit bigger.
Since Ilene's Toyota Natoma had to go to the garage, where the check engine light was checked with all codes, and many new parts had to be installed, we didn't have much money left for the Travette. So she's still waiting for her smog check, and we already know there is an Evap problem. Please wish us luck on that, since we don't have much financial reserves.
At least, we can be sure now that we'll stay dry during our sleeps in our beloved camper!
