We purged. We planned. We plotted.
It is still a very small closet.
Shelves added.
Painted.
Partial move in.
Complete.
Both sides.
We are pleased with this make over.
Next: the Laundry Makeover.
Wanna take a guess? These are the stabilizer bolts. They were part of the original purchase and were saved by Mickey for the move and were properly installed. Unfortunately, they did not make the move well. I assure you that the washer and dryer were very stable on the trailer. Apparently, the trip was rough. Two of these bolts had released and were inside the machine. The other two were loose and broken.
He hooked the washer to power and water on the back porch to give it a try.
?
Error codes are always a challenge. A trip to the internet and a few videos later, we were ready to install inside the small closet.
Washer hookup - check.
Next challenge? How to raise the dryer to the top of the washer in a very confined space with limited muscle help (me)?
Creative thinking.
We did it!
With such limited space, we devised a plan to get it in position.
Next plan? Attach the dryer to the washer. Hook up the electric wiring and the dryer vent while working around the previous washer wiring, hot and cold water intakes and the drain. Why was I doing this? Because I could slide behind this machine. Fortunately, I had great instructions.
OK, how about this pic? While I was watching the dryer vent, water hoses and both electrical wires, someone was playing photographer and didn't even bother to tell me to look at the camera and smile! The rope was holding the dryer vent in place as we moved the unit in to position.
AHA! We did it!
After minor door adjustments, it works!
Closed.
Open!
We had our annual HOA meeting the morning of the Fourth and a party down the mountain in the evening. Transition to cooking ahead.
We took chocolate chip cookies and...
homemade salsa...
in our most patriotic dish.
Back home (yes it is now), before the rain.
We are getting settled and loving the cool and wet weather!
