    When you have a wife that doesn't want much for Christmas you have to be crearive sometimes. We sell small teardrop campers at work made to fill with wine corks. Of course nobody makes a camper like ours so I decided to make one out of steel she can either put potpouri in or a candle.
    1/12th scale I guess you would call it I measured the camper and scaled it down to a foot equals an inch.

    The levelling jacks screw up and down, wheels roll, and side door opens







    Not perfect but a fun project

    We are. We've been camping on BLM land in a couple different places since Thanksgiving. Right now we're beside Joshua Tree National Park. Haven't been near other people except at a grocery store.

    Christmas in Redwood City with our daughter

    Hope y'all is doing OK too

    Christmas went wonderfully perhaps one of my favorites of all time. All the kids and there significant others were here, that's only 4 people LOL. Christie liked the camper I did go back and add the AC unit 1" square pipe capped with flat metal.

    FINALLY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    We finally got out camping. What a hectic year with not just one but two weddings hanging over our heads and all the planning that has been going on. My Lord did we need a break. Almost a year since our last trip but everything worked perfect except the grill but we made due.

    Loft Mtn. is our favorite spot on Skyline drive with nice private sites, abundant wildlife, and great scenery. Lots of hiking trails if you like that as well we usually just walk the grounds.

    We don't skimp on meals I'm not there to set any standards for minimalism we are there to relax and have fun. Here's some food pics Saturday was a peach cobbler in the dutch and seafood boil/wraps cooked over the fire. Cheeseburgers, Sausage and peppers, breakfast burritos, pancakes we eat well. Hell we eat better camping than at home.






    We had a couple of does with fawns walking right through the campsite several times
