Today Ron Croda and Mike delivered the trailer and did a great job positioning it and levelling it. The ground was still wet from the rain and traction was a problem for Ron's two whell drive truck. Luckily Mike brought his 4 wheel drive along which we used several times to pull Ron's truck into position for the next jog of the positioning manoeuvres. It was a two hour job but now I have my temporary residence in situ. Running power to it is a simple matter of a long extension cord from the power shed. Water is a bit more of a challenge although the trailer is only a few feet from the well there is as yet no pump in the well. Meanwhile I can manage by pouring water from containers into the tank. The trailer has its own hot water system, fridge, stove, stereo, heater etc etc.
Here is the trailer seen from the south gate on Hague Rd. The actual gate leaning against the tree is not yet functional. Hopefully I can get it installed tomorrow.
A view of the inside looking through the "living room" to the kitchen. It's all nice and clean and pretty much everything works. The decor is definbitely 70s but hey, it's very liveable for now.In summer, I will build a deck in front and have an outdoor living area under the canopy that comes with the unit.
