Sadly the condensation will happen on the windows. I don't know if there's a way to prevent it other than opening up the vents at the bottom is so equipped. I lived in a trailer for a yr in Moscow, ID. Gonna do it again next yr too. Lots of condensation with the shades down. Less if you keep em up. I had to clean the bottoms good as there was mold at the end of the year that I didn't know about. A periodic cleaning will solve that problem.

Any tightly enclosed space containing humans will promote condensation, regardless of shell construction. Insulation helps, positive ventilation helps, as does de-humidification and HVAC. A quick search of the site Patty linked to earlier resulted in these suggestions: Condensation

Theoretically, the trailer I had built has insulated walls and lid. These were on the order sheet but I've yet to confirm installation. Some day....

Happy camping,

Lance

Patty,

I'd love to build you a trailer like this, in pink, of course....

I just rigged this up in my yard and tried it out.

Comfy! There's a tarp to put up over it to keep dry with. I almost took a nap.

I have this picture in my mind of everybody at the GTG sneaking up quietly, grabbing the hammock, and start winding it up like the rubber band on a model airplane....round and round and round until the rope gets tight...and then letting it go! Somebody would have to keep track of the number of turns, the rpms, and whether Patty lasted for the whole ride without getting dumped out on the ground. Extra points for being able to walk 20 feet in a straight line afterward.

Make sure you get the cookies first, though.

I'm fairly certain if you did that to Patty. . . Yer future cookies would contain "special" ingredients.

Is that a Henessey Hammock?

Is that a Henessey Hammock?

Yup. And I guess I have it set up wrong. I'm beginning to wonder if I need some climbing gear to get it rigged up with!

I hate sleeping on the ground. I want to do some sight seeing in the back country and hammocks are supposed to be comfy, except you still have to insulate the bottom of them to keep warm.

The straps that come with them look to be made for 5 inch trees. Those are hard to come by here.

And boys, the cookie and pie count is going down....
down....
down.

You are very bad! The Used Dog will be sleeping nearby and you know how protective he is!

I have reason to believe that I'm about the last person who ever built a real wind-up model airplane. It was a Sterling model of a Stearman, I was 12 years old, and it flew three times before it was no longer repairable. Lot of hours went into those three flights. I suspect that I learned a lot about both patience and futility from that model.

I feel the best is Airstream, especially if you can find an old one taken care of. They are well built dont leak like most.

Uh oh. Please don't cut down on the cookies. I was just kidding! Really I was!


Well, mostly, anyway. Besides, we can bribe Benny with an empty BBQ pan and he won't bite us.

He might if he puts together the couple days after the BBQ pan with the actual licking of it. The rumbling of his tummy cannot feel all that good. :msp_scared:

Back in the old days, I lived in a "panel job" insulated and turned into a camper while I worked in the PNW. No indoor shower, no heater, cooking on a campstove, but the thing I would never be without is a shop bench area and tools for working on saws!
