The patches have really grown thick on that teardrop. Does that extra weight affect your gas mileage very much?!? :lol:

Glad to see your travels have kept you nicely occupied!

That's a cool trailer big enough to get the job done! Does it have one of those compact portable boat/camper toilets?
Looks like a bunch a fun out on the road!

It hasn’t effected the gas mileage but my wallet is much lighter. Each decal averages about $3.

How long was your trip? Great pics. Likin' that sticker by your sink: "I'm Retired". Perfect! It's the best job I've ever had. Enjoy Gene.

Great photos! We like to drive a lot too. I find it hard to spend more than a few days in one spot. Do you have an awning on that, or carry an EZ Up type thing?

I don’t because I’m seldom in the same place for more than a day. A lot of teardroppers do.

Gene, just curious what a good quality teardrop goes for? I can see that as a possibility in my future.
