<p>Hi Angie - restoring a vintage trailer is sure a challenge. I can't imagine - I may have made Juno my own but she was in a solid state to start with. And because of that an her age (84) I didn't feel required to keep it vintage pristine or true to her era (because let's admit it - staying true to the 80s really doesn't have much gong for it). Must say I enjoyed the process I did have, though. With everyone's help here it was an incredible learning experience. The road has been harder…</p>

Must say I enjoyed the process I did have, though. With everyone's help here it was an incredible learning experience. The road has been harder for sure. Flying without a safety net - but then, folks on the road are generally good. Just watching the money drain out of the bank account was depressing :-) Hope we meet when you get on the road! But, definitely don't be jealous and enjoy where you are. Many days I'd give my left arm to be home safe, with a bathtub and no DUST - grin. Look forward to more photos!</p> Dawn Michelle- Great story !…tag:goodoldrvs.ning.com,2017-11-28:2093474:Comment:3275332017-11-28T17:25:16.108ZAngie Loganhttps://goodoldrvs.ning.com/profile/AngieLogan
<p>Dawn Michelle- Great story ! Have been following you from Kansas as we inch our way along with the 69 Shasta Loflyte in such a sad state. We have faced major problems since day 2 but will continue to work many hours daily until the winter is too cold. We will then look into a double 55 gallon wood burner for our work barn. </p>

<p>I have found some nice guys to help me figure out my additional solar - one has definitely tested it all (he has like 1100 watts of solar across his trailer and his truck - even runs an a/c). Of course mine will be simple but I feel fortunate they are also going to help get my new converter fully wired in (rather than piggy backed). I also need to rewire my electronics system when I have my new battery/system in. I wired it with too small gauge wire (dumb now that I think about it).</p>
