Extreme Pipe Dreams

Well, Mobley is officially ours. Escrow closed, lease signed, it's all hands to the handiwork.

First and foremost we must replace the plumbing. There is a little problem with "Gray Pipe", and it was recalled in 1995. Needless to say, the previous owners ignored the recall or simply didn't open their mail, lol. The inspector said repairing the leaks would only cause leaks elsewhere, so it's all new pipes.

So, our first official act as Mobley's parents owners is to replace all her pipes stem to stern. We knew of this prior to purchasing our mobile, so we were prepared.

I won't show pictures of the re-pipe, as I refuse to crawl underneath the house. But here is a picture of the offending pipe, all neatly stacked, as though it didn't cause any heartache at all.
Naughty Pipe, Naughty
 
We now begin our journey, starting anew at our ages, lol. But God is at the helm, and this ship is going forward into uncharted territory with wind in the sails and adventures to be had.
 
Breathe a prayer for us if you will,
We'll be the better for it!
 
Blessings, Theresa
 

P.S. We are hiring a licensed plumber to do the re-pipe lest you think we attempted said work, lol.
