Perfect fit

We have surrendered to the glamping trend.  ðŸ¤”😂.

Storage rack

Check out this custom made storage rack.   Ken, with help from the boys, made this custom rack to carry out generator, an air compressor, and two gas cans on the back of our travel trailer.  If you want details, comment on this post and hopefully he can answer any questions.  It took them a few evenings and all day today to build it. There are straps running up to keep the rack stable once weight is added to it.  The straps have to be unlatched to put the bunk end down. Top anchor Bumper clamp Adding the reflectors.
