1st road trip in newly built Vardo

[stonykill]

Took most of the month of July and built my wife and I a Vardo. The build thread is in my sig. We live 35 miles SE of Albany NY and took the Vardo on it's maiden voyage 2.5 hours from home to Gilbert Lake State Park in Lauren NY. Pretty nice state park.
We saw 2 teardrops on the trip. One stayed in the park we did. The other we saw on the highway only 7 miles from our home on the way back.

A few pics...ok quite a few pics.

here a few minutes and disconnected and leveled.




30 to 40 minutes later camp is all set up. My beautiful wife being silly for the camera


time to make some coffee.

still a WIP but it is campable.



the inside is far from complete but we want to camp in it a few times to figure out what we want to do



made new friends. This is Tom and his wife with their v8 powered MG pulling a teardrop he built 5 years ago. More pics of this later. This is as he was cruising past our site



I loved how the Vardo looked in this light so .............



this chicken was fabulous

No….. you ate your chickens ! ! !



ha haha just kidding. I just read your complete build log tonight very nice. It looks great out there camping. Plenty of room in side.

Some one in your build log ask about a Murphy Bed. Some one is build a Vardo with a Murphy bed in the very back and bench seats and table under it. would be easy to make a Bench / bed combo in your trailer. Kinda like a Futon. Be nice to just set in there on a rainy day of camping.


Wow you starting another one as well.

we do eat our chickens. . The Roosters anyway. There is plenty of room inside the Vardo without a murphy bed for 2 people to spend the day out of the rain if need be

Great Job! You should enjoy camping in such a nice trailer. Have fun finishing the interior!
