Thanks? Alex! Its fine!
If this is not the ORVIS Teardrop it might just be it’s twin—perhaps the same builder? Very similar even to the wood used. That one is drop dead gawgeeous.
Hmmmm–I have a 4 cyl car and a 6 cyl motorcycle—hmmmm! Both have tow hitches!
For anyone who is interested in teardrop campers, I have been on a website for several years called “Teardrops n Tiny Travel Trailers”, at tnttt.com. For anyone interested in these tiny trailers, the website is chock full of info from how to build one to how to live in one. Although they are mainly for camping I believe in the right climate where one could spend lots of time outdoors, it would be more comfortable than living out of a personal vehicle, which is done all over the U.S. and probably more than anyone realizes. You just can’t “stealth camp” with a teardrop though.
Thanks Martha, I attest that is a great website 🙂
I live near Roanoke VA, but have never heard of this company. But I will definitely stop by next time I’m in Roanoke and check them out.
