Much progress was made today on the trailer! Removed was more of the paneling, all of the doors (both to the cabinets, the closets, and the front door itself), and most excitedly we took out the refrigerator and the propane heater.
Work really seems to be coming along nicely, and if the weather continues to cooperate, I am hopeful that we will have the deconstruction complete before the end of the week, which will mean that we can begin actual construction before the end of the month! You can't see it, but I'm doing a little happy dance in my chair.
The work is generally fun, but I'm finding that the main reason I'm enjoying it so much has more to do with the fact that its my project than with the specifics of the project itself. I think that this is appeasing my biological clock to a certain extent; allowing me to create a nest, etc., and providing an outlet for all my "settling" energy.
Which frankly isn't all that settled, but the idea of having my own home has been appealing to me for some time. The fact that this particular home is mobile seems to be the best solution to the problem of integration which I have faced in the past. Regardless, I'm having a great time!
Below are the photos of the specifics:

Here is the fridge with the door off, prior to disassembly.

Here is the fridge vent on the side of the trailer (this is now a hole for the sunshine!)

Here is the counter area without the fridge - you can see the sun peeking through now.

This is what the area where the fridge was looks like now.
And lastly, the heater before:

And after!
