About Me



Hi! Welcome to my blog! My name is Suzie and after working as an accountant for 10 years, I decided to give up the rat race and switch careers. My husband, who was serving as a Psychologist in the Air Force did the same. Now we both teach high school in San Antonio, Texas. I teach Geometry and my husband teaches Physics. During the summer we take our kids on all kinds of fun vactions. This year we purchased our first pop-up trailer and couldn't be more thrilled. It's a 2003 Colman Utah and we pull it with our 2011 Ford F150 Eco Boost. This blog is devoted to my pop-up adventures. Please enjoy.

Demolition III


I needed to slide the bed in more than it wanted to go in order to take out the screws on the top of the bulkhead. The stop inside by the table was easy but the other side was in the track and the nut would just spin when I turned the screw. I had to jam a wrench into the track behind the rail to hold the nut still while I turned the screw.


Once the stops inside the trailer were gone, I could move things around and remove the stops on the outside. Then I could push the bed in further than it was supposed to go.


With the bed pushed way in, I could remove the bed glides...


and other screws that held on this white piece of trim.


The trim was also held on by a long strip of super sticky foam. I had to really pull to get it off.


This is a photo of the wiring under the edge of the lid deck. I had to disconnect it to take off the deck.


These are the plugs that go into the back of the light switch inside the trailer.


After I removed the lid deck I found a piece of wood was being used to support it. This is mold that was growing under the leaky crack.
