One more coat of polyurethane to go and I will have a floor! It's so nice to see a section come together. Evan also did a lot of design for the rest of the camper today, the design for the shell is looking great!

| First we have the bare insulation and frame. |
 |
| Caulk the cracks. |
 |
| Very sad story, the hardware store that is a two minute walk away is going out of business. But sort of good timing for us, we are getting a lot of our hardware for 30-50% off. But they are quickly running out of gear, the store will be closed and empty before we are done with the camper. |
 |
| Evan continues to work at the computer. |
 |
| Kelly has her own projects going, she and I both thought it was a good day to paint. |
We painted the underside with three coats of latex enamel paint to help with the waterproofing.
 |
| Where are all those neighborhood children that I can trick into doing this job for me? |
 |
| One of the times it was drying between coats. |
 |
| Back half |
 |
| With the paint dry we got to flip them over and put them on the trailer frame. Now to put in the final bolts. |
 |
| Evan carefully calculates.... |
 |
| With the help of high tech equipment. |
 |
| Drill Baby Drill! |
 |
| Eureka! |
 |
| Getting closer... |
We took a trip to another hardware store to get polyurethane because our next door store was out. Then we sanded, cleaned, and put on a first coat! Sorry no photo yet of the first coat of polyurethane, but I promise we did it!

| Sanding our surface |
Don't we get so much done in a day? Tricked you! It was two days.
