Obligatory Resolutions: Airstream Goals for the New Year

The biggest task I have planned for this spring is to replumb the entire trailer with Pex plastic tubing. The plumbing has never worked 100%, and there is a leak in one of the drainpipes. To fix this I will need to remove part, or perhaps the entire, belly plate to reach the pipes. Once I remove the belly I might as well sand and paint the frame to halt the considerable rust. My goal is to have this work done by April so I can have the trailer ready to bring to whatever campsite we choose in May and camp most weekends in the summer.

Repairs for later in ‘08:

• Replace refrigerator
• Replace air conditioner
• New lighting (probably some track lighting from Ikea)
• New, quieter vents
• New inverter, to help charge the battery
