HOW HAS IT COME TO THIS?
How has it come, that I am working on Tim’s Hot Mess? I spent eight hours yesterday dry cleaning The Hot Mess. And as I see it will probably spend three more days on it. Two more dry cleaning the interior and one day pressure washing the interior. And now it’s raining today!
So I think I have now removed everything from the interior storage. No surprises. Mr. Hunter had place settings for a lovely dinner party of eight. Enough coffee and drink cups to keep a small cafe in business. New unused pots and pans from the time. I thought it was interesting him being a loner. Guessing the Mrs. sent him off well prepared.
Mr. Hunter also had a well stocked junk drawer. He liked his towel racks in the shower and had perfectly preserved the shower curtain so a pattern can be made.
Mr. Hunter didn’t winterize The Hot Mess. One year winter came either early before he arrived or hit late after he departed for the season or I guess it could have even happened during a stay. It gets down to freezing temperatures up there in the forest. So as one would guess pipes split and damage was done. Mr. Hunter then cut pipes bypassing systems and in the end was only using a direct connection from his well that was on property. And as far as we can tell maybe only had working water in the rear bathroom.
The weather was warm here in Florida yesterday. I had all the windows opened in The Hot Mess while cleaning. There was a really nice breeze flowing through the entire Airstream. Did I hear birds chirping? With my mask and gloves on I could barely smell anything. I then realized all the room it has in it and what a nice layout it has. Our Texas friends say it can comfortably seat fifteen people. Could it be that even through all the hard work I’m doing for Tim on The Hot Mess that I could actually be coming to ... nope! Not going there ... yet.
