I’m Vin Weathermon, the Shutter Scamp, about to embark on a Pacific Coast Highway adventure in my vintage 1984 Scamp 16, the cool home on wheels that I hope will take me from San Diego California to Depoe Bay, Oregon. On the way I hope to talk with fellow travelers, get pointers on how experienced small home travelers do things, what products and tools help make the journey safer and more fun. With your support, I can continue to visit amazing campsites and share our stories together.
I know just enough to be dangerous. I paid too much for a trailer that had no brakes, faulty tail lights, decaying water lines, dysfunctional airconditioner, crumbling water connections, no hot water or shower. It’s kind of a disaster, but may be a sweet outcome if it all works out; after all, I also know mistakes can “make the man”.
