We will take our chances too. We will leave here early Sun. or MAYBE late Sat. Not sure yet.
We are close enough to your parents, maybe we should run over and tp your trailer
How come Lori hasn't responded to the gathering yet?
We just got back from the north shore. It is still winter up there. But, we still had a great time. We may have a commission to build a tear for someone.
We also found a great state forest campground for a possible gathering. Right on a small lake. VERY remote.
Is it a potluck on Sun?

Hey Toby and Sue! It's good to hear from you! Lori has been having computer problems. She said she is going to try to make it. She will probably come out Friday night and stay through Monday morning, but since I haven't heard the official word here, I haven't posted her information yet.

As for the potluck. I figured I have been trying to plan the camp out, I'll let someone else plan the potluck.

Hey Cary! Are you going to this little get together? It's in your neck of the woods! Or are you trying to get away from Craig for a while? :lol:

Well, he does see Craig more than I do and has for several years now...it's kind of a joke around here. That's why we go to gatherings, so I can spend more time with Craig. Of course, that also means talking shop...A LOT! Occupational hazard, you know... :lol:

I talked to him on the phone the other day and he wasn't sure if he was going to make it. I guess it takes those engineer types a lot longer to make a decision! :lol:

I suppose I shouldn't give Cary crap until after he sends me my Sikaflex. I need it to finish the trailer before this little get together.

Well folks. I've got more progress pictures loaded in my album for you to see.

This week my mom stained and put two coats of varnish on it so far.

Today I wired and mounted my roof vent (yes Buzz it blows the right way), I mounted my new tires and wheels (yes Buzz they turn the right way), mounted the windows in the doors (yes Buzz they are right side up), and started cutting ribs for my hatch.

Let me know what you think.

Looks good Tim!
Before long you will be an official teardropper.
Looking forward to July 20th.
:applause:

Hey McGinty....Nice pix...really good progress!! Glad to hear that your mother finally got to get going on the staining & varnishing...you had mentioned that she had laid claim to that part of the project.
Really sweet wheels!! That TD is going to be such a Babe Magnet!! You actually might need to rewire the roof vent so it blows the other way!! :lol:

Thanks folks for checking on me and my trailer progress. I look forward to my first official teardrop camping trip with you guys, gals, and dogs. All I ask is no PINK toilet paper!
