Rob, as far as I know, the general area is still open. We might be spread out a bit but we can all find the movie . I'll have the stereo cranked up so the neighbors can hear it too.

Thanks Kurt!

Sarah and I are heading out Wednesday.
Might stay at Turkey run, might come straight down...depends on which way the rain goes...

I think I'm ready. Made a box for the front of the camper , got the doors to seal, went camping two weekends in a row, Yep I'm ready. Will be there Friday afternoon. Can hardly sleep at night. Jimmy :twisted:

I'm still planning to be there, although, having trouble convincing anyone to come along with me. Might just be me and a half-blind Weimaraner.

Looking forward to meeting everyone face-to-face!

Leland (Matoon, IL) and I will be there on Thursday to get settled in. Looks like decent weather for the weekend.(but ya'never know for sure).

This should be a fun weekend for current TD owners and also a great time for any visitors or new builders looking for ideas.

Can't wait to get there and kick into Teardrop time. :thumbsup:

The weather is great, the park is fantastic, and the tears are rolling in! :applause:

If you can make it, come join us for the weekend.

Many thanks to Kurt for hosting a fantastic weekend! :thumbsup:

It was nice to see old friends, and meet new ones from the board.
There were a lot of very nicely done tears, and as always, a lot of ideas and features I wish I'd have known about before building mine...

Someone else may have better pictures, but for now, here are a few of the tears (and campers) and a few of the people.

I'll second that, Rob!

Kurt, great job organizing. :applause:

What a great group of people. It was so much fun to walk around and look at all the trailers and hear all the stories. Everyone had a story to tell (some had several great stories!).

I have to tell you, there's nothing like sitting by a campfire after everyone has gone to bed and listening to the silence...wow. I dozed off at about midnight in my chair by the fire only to be awakened by one of those damn raccoons! I decided to go to bed after that....

It was nice to meet you all and thanks for the warm welcome you showed me as a newcomer!

Now, I'm off to bed early tonight. Jack and Bill (the two boys who were with me) WORE ME OUT!

GREATR JOB Kurt !!! Thanks for all your hard work setting it up!!! Great movie & good french toast this am too! Right out of the cast iron skillet!It was a great time for me, I think I talked to at least 50 lookers while setting around. So many lookers were astonished that I slept in there, it was something that they could not fathom for some reason! It was fun to meet so many great campers too. I was welcomed like I had been there all along. Thanks everyone for your friendship ! I look forward to the next Gathering. :thumbsup:

Thanks again! :applause:

I too would like to say thanks!
I had a great time, I had never seen a teardrop "in person", and what a great bunch of people. I can't wait till the next time.

Thanks Kurt, and everyone there, for making us fill so wellcome. Cheryl and I had the greatest camping trip of all time. I now have a lot of ideas for some improvements to my tear. I just could not beleive the public interest in our campers. What a trip. Jimmy & Cheryl :applause:

Ditto what you guys said, and thanks Kurt! :thumbsup:

I had a blast. Wish this kinda thing happened more often. Was great to meet everyone, and hope to see you all again real soon. Got some great ideas for my teardrop, which is still in the process of tweaking.

Downside is, makes coming to work Monday morning REALLY SUCK when you've had such a great weekend! :cry:
