HAHA!
I never imagined they'd look different while in heat. ;-) But you reminded me of this image...
I liked it enough to buy the t-shirt. Kids at ham shows love it!
Whoa! Time has really passed. The car has grown a bit. More specifically, the ham radio station has grown A LOT! I'll share some photos, but I will also share that I have camped ONE night in a small cargo trailer conversion. It was for an overnight ham radio event called "Field Day." Here's my...
It's been a while since I joined and shared my setup. I STILL haven't been camping, but I continue to build and scheme in my mind. I've also driven to CA and back twice, around 15,000 miles traveled between November and March. I thought some might be interested in the changes to my "rear seat...
So sorry to have missed this, guys! I wound up having an unexpected hitch ball problem that distracted me with trips to Advance Auto and Lowe's. I'll have to catch you next time. Here's a short video, although it didn't touch on my problem (footage was recorded before the ball came unscrewed)...
Still no camping yet... It's too stinking hot! :flushed: But I'm still making progress on my "conversion." I figured I'd share some photos of the "rear seat delete" I mentioned above. Now that my daughter is grown and driving on her own. I really don't need the rear seat these days. Plus, I...
Short notice and a bit of a long shot: I'm helping a friend move some stuff to Salem this weekend. I'll be returning home Sunday morning. Is anyone interested in meeting for breakfast, perhaps at the Starbucks near the Roanoke Mission BBQ that morning? I'm thinking 9 or 10am, but that depends on...
Thanks for the welcome, @Pindal. Although I ultimately want to use a RTT, I think I'm going to follow @Michael 's lead and start with a Gazelle T4, which could eventually serve as a dressing room or sheltered eating area if we still want to move to a RTT later. The T4 should fit inside my...
Mine was activated a few days later. It's done manually, so it takes time for humans to finish their weekends and get back to this volunteer job. I'm sure it will happen at some point. Just give it time.
Perhaps a silly question, but I have no experience here: Do you have concerns about such a small trailer with narrow track and high load tipping over? What about with the tent deployed? Does the ladder provide sufficient support to keep the applied lateral force from tipping the trailer? I have...
My wife and I have been watching your videos. We're all caught up and look forward to each new release. However, we often wonder where you are since we know AK is long behind you. Is there a way to follow that, too? I'm planning to "apprentice" my way into overlanding and created this 4-minute...
I almost forgot to publish the companion article for the video I shared in the top post. The article has a few extra details that I didn't share in the video. See the write-up here.
Thanks, Steve!
I've considered a drive out to the Roanoke Rally Point. But it's four hours each way. I like Mission BBQ and was recently impressed by a taste of their pastrami. But I'll have to plan a weekend there, something more to justify the drive. Too bad I cannot hit the trail with you...
Hello,
I've considered that, but a step further: a rear seat delete. I wouldn't have considered it when my daughter was growing. But now that she's pretty independent and driving herself a lot, I may give it a shot. I could even make an additional storage area beneath the front panel where the...
