Something that I’d like the podcasts to do is feature actual camping stories. The last episode focused primarily on an author and was largely editorial. This one is just one of my favorite camp stories. I was in the 3rd grade when this story happened. This is my recollection of the story. Since many of […]

It was a tradition in everyone’s family, until we invented the House!” – Jim Gaffigan When did people start roughing it in the wilderness for fun instead of out of necessity? I have long been fascinated by this question. Our – documentary was intended to answer a […]
“Just Living is not enough…One Must Have Sunshine, Freedom, and a little Flower” – Hans Christian Anderson To me, Freedom is adventure. It isn’t the day to day grind. That is a groove of habit that becomes a trench with boundaries in my life. “Freedom,” as Robert Frost wrote, “is being bold.” Freedom is […]
“Time is the most valuable currency so spend it wisely” – Debasish Mridha Indeed it is true! Nathan and I at Overland Trailer started our first trailer 10 years ago this summer as a hobby project.

To my surprise, the editor contacted me and asked to review the Overland Trailer documentary “Historic Camping & Tiny Trailers”. Copies […]
“That’s the thing with handmade items. They still have the person’s mark on them, and when you hold them, you feel less alone.” – Aimee Bender In grade school, I remember having a pen pal in a foreign land (Germany? possibly…). I remember being amazed at the personal touch I received from someone on the other side […]
“The first real thought that I had of something that I might do was to write for car magazines, because I always had a car thing.” – Jerry Seinfeld If you have a teardrop trailer thing, there’s a new place to find some great information. It is called “Cool Tears Magazine”. In the past few […]
“Photography is like an open book to the world.” – Lisa Jones After a few seasons of business, I’ve enjoyed seeing photos of the Overland Trailer 58 Heald trailer arrive in my email. There are some great stories being made in this little trailer and that is precisely what camping in a teardrop trailer should be. […]
