A mostly sunny day with some clouds in the late afternoon and 25.
Me and Gary went to a hardware store this morning to pickup a 20 gallon hot water tank, drain pan, fittings, etc. When we got back we removed the 6 gallon propane water heater from our trailer. Then back to the hardware store to return some fittings and get different size ones plus a piece of plywood to fix up the door to the tank - can never do a plumbing job without making a couple of trips lol. When we got back we repaired the door while we were waiting for things to dry out from the leaky tank. Then installed the drain pan, put drain pipe through the floor and installed the new hot water tank, thanks for the help Gary. Ruby and Sharon went out to do some shopping. Gary and Sharon here for supper with us. After supper I did up the Dec calendar for the park association.

Out for a walk this morning. After breakfast I removed the toilet, baseboards and flooring from our washroom, cleaned up the water and started drying the floor. Was hoping the leak was from the toilet seal but water kept seeping from under the tub. Got Ruby to remove the turkey from our oven and take it to Sharon's to finish cooking so me and Gary could pull out our stove. Removed panel from side of cupboards and found our leak - hot water tank leaking. Got underneath trailer and cut open the plastic sheeting covering the bottom to release the water. Had to cut open 3 sections. After that set up the table and chairs on our deck for Thanksgiving day supper. Ruby and Sharon cooked a great turkey supper. Lawrence & Teresa and Larry & Fedele here to enjoy it with us. After everything cleaned up I shut off our water and drained the hot water tank for tonight.
