RV LIFE – Up Go The Walls Now!

Well we are now seeing quite a bit of progress on our 5th wheel as Leisure Coachworks (a division of Alfateers) in Fontana, California, is getting our kitchen slide out wall back together!

One thing for sure, we are seeing first hand how these things are built and put together from the frame to the finished product!

Leisure Coachworks did a wonderful job on the floor of the slide, now to finish the job…let’s see how high up the dry rot goes…

Seems like our floor needs to be completely demo’d and replaced….We’re in great hands though, at Leisure Coachworks (A Division of ALFATEERS) in Fontana, California.

So we are now in week #2 of being at Leisure Coachworks (a division of ALFATEERS) in Fontana, California.

Our 5th wheel, TALOW, is in the shop getting all fixed up from water damage in the kitchen slide out that apparently has been there for years and was just getting worse and worse.   Leisure Coachworks have gone above and beyond for us during our stay.  Since we had to move out of our home and into a rental trailer during the rebuilding of our slide out, we needed a few items out of ours…
