I was removing some of the loose wall paper around the passenger side window in the loft when the whole wall crumbled.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I wasn’t surprised. I think I’ve been living in denial.<\/p>\n

What I want at this point is a GOOD sealant for that exterior seam. I don’t give a damn what it looks like. I’m going to spend quite a bit of time researching tonight to come up with a solution. It has to be something I can apply in the current cool and wet conditions.<\/p>\n

Once I’m confident the outside is water tight, I’ll get the interior dried up using a combination of the dehumidifier and the heater. I’ll add a mould and mildew resistant product, then put in new insulation and a new piece of paneling for the wall. I’m just worried about what’s under the floor; but I’m not seeing any signs of leak into the cab, so I’m hoping that the water has just been wicking up into the wall and the pink insulation along the front.<\/p>\n

At the bottom left of the wall, there is a bit of white showing. That is the styrofoam insulation to which the paneling was glued. I’m going to have to cut through the foam to remove it with the paneling.<\/p>\n

I’m not as freaked out as one would imagine; it’s not going to be a tough repair to do and if there’s one part of the rig where aesthetics don’t matter, it’s there. The only thing that bugs me is that I’m going to need such a small amount of materials. I’ll put ads out tonight and hopefully I can find someone with a bit of leftover pink insulation at the very least.<\/p>\n

Let’s just say I won’t be cutting corners as to making the bed in the study comfy. I’m going to be sleeping there for a while….<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
