It looks like a longer version of my trailer...

Well between Friday and Saturday I managed to pick up all my aluminum and get a little work done. The walls are up and the framing has started.

We also decided on a name. With my Air Force back ground and the blue aluminum we selected for the side walls, we are calling this one The Blue Yonder.

Here is a shot of the walls up and the rough in of a front headboard/cabinet.

Well, alittle more progress. I did get the walls insulated, dry fit the inner wall skin, and test fit the windows.

Next step, figure out fender mounting then stain and attached the inner walls. LCG is the goal!

Earl,

Your teardrop is looking fabulous. At your current pace, I have no doubt that you'll be finished by LCG.

Take care,
Tom

That inner wall galley/shelf pattern really brings back some memories!!! Looking forward to laughing around the campfire again!
