[A/S] Losing Originality
Hi Folks,
When we first got this almost new 72 A/S back in late '97 we were
determined to keep it 'original'. Well, no doubt, y'all have been
reading in today's other messages of our 29 yr old original equipment
being replaced in this last week (electric fridge thermostat and water
heater). Since Sept. 10 we also had to replace old original Armstrong
a/c. Now we're 95% done with installing Pergo flooring throughout the
trailer. It ain't an easy job but it looks good. (A-a-nd the good news
is we didn't get a divorce - quite - while doing the floor ^grin^.)
Actually, we removed the 'original' carpet 18 mos. ago and replaced
with new carpet but neither of us can stand walking over & over the
same trail on our carpet and not being able to do a thorough cleaning
job, thus-s, the decision to go the way of Pergo Presto flooring that we
will be able to dry/mop and damp/mop - again, it's not just a snap
job...
(with just the oven, furnace, and entire refer left that's original and
feeling lucky about that)
