    Just a few pics from our nearly month-long teardrop trip to the SW.

    Another fine three-nighter is in the logbook.

    Across the big divide to the east... uncharted country for us. :) Tony

    Just a quickie..

    The wife went on an overnight mountain bike ride with her girl-pals so I had to grab the dogs and go find some country. Shade was a bit scarce but I found some near a cold stream that I managed to flop a fly in after dinner. Another fine trip. :cool:(y) Tony

    Eighteen months in the making... here's the book: Building a Teardrop Trailer: Plans and Methods for Crafting an Heirloom Camper

    A long-term project that I'm quite pleased with. I have watched so many teardrop builders struggle (which is probably just part of the process). I hope this takes some of the angst out of creating one of these remarkable campers. 192 pages, 221 photos and 31 pencil biting chapters...

    Teardrop #4

    Here we go (again). It's all .120 2" tube. Here's the removeable coupler: No more leaving the teardrop in camp and wondering how hard it would be to defeat the coupler lock. Here's what she'll look like: The skeleton's are nearly finished: (y) T
