Yesterday when we got home, I climbed up on the roof and started scraping. There are about 6 layers of sealant, and none of them do their job. Which means they all gotta go. I think it's going to be a monumental task. Especially since we are camping again on Memorial Day, which is only three weeks away. Nothing like a deadline to motivate a person.
The blog began with the story of our 1969 Aristocrat Lo-Liner travel trailer. But after adding a great big dog to our family, along with two rapidly growing girls, we decided to go bigger. Currently we own a 1975 Winnebago 5th wheel, but who knows?

Goodbye, old roof, I'm a-leavin' Cheyenne
So we discovered after getting Winnie out of storage that she leaks. A lot more than was disclosed. I had to take a somewhat spur of the moment trip for work, which didn't give me much time to check it out. I still had a tub of elastomeric goo we got with the Aristocrat, so I quickly slapped it on the roof and went to North Carolina hoping for the best. It proceeded to rain buckets while I was gone, which kept the missus busy putting buckets inside to catch drips. We camped this past weekend, but fortunately the weather dried up in time.
