15 tours!!!

[Toms_Strat]

Hey all. Took the trailer out to Millersylvania, again, this weekend. We could not even talk to the ranger at the booth to check in, as a young couple stopped to tell us how they had seen these things on TV! Really nice couple. Once we got set up we knew there would be a few questions during the weekend. Well, that turned into 15 guided tours of the trailer! We met SO many nice people, even a lady who had a teardrop in the 1950's! In between visits we managed to give the DO a real workout and ate way too much food, weather was nice, and we are looking forward to the next adventure....

BTW, start the new job tomorrow, so hope to find out soon if we can get to any more of the gatherings!

Good Job Tom...
Have you started keeping a log book of your trips?
Or maybe you need a guest register...

[oklahomajewel]

Hey, a guest book ! That's a great idea!

I was going to get a small scrapbook to put my build pictures in , to have on hand when someone says " You built this?" and could have blank pages in the back from "autographs" hahaha

I get a post card from every place we camp, I write the space number and which space would be good for next time. and those stay with the teardrop along with the pictures of the original owner and all the other pix I take of it.

Hey, I like the post card idea! We keep a log book and write the space we wished we would have been in it for next time as well. Kim has been collecting stickers from the places we've been and wants to put them in the galley, I've resisted so far. Maybe they should go in the log book too.

Hey all,

We did start a log book when we got the trailer, been tracking the milage, places and sites etc.... One lady suggested we charge a .25 cent tour fee, but then she wanted 10% as manager so the idea kinda dwindled... Ron, can't wait to see the trailer! You have to be in the top 10 speed builds ever? Are you taking it out to a kite event?

[240zron]

Hey Tom,

Yes we are going to the long beach comps this weekend. The Trailer is not complete, The inside still needs to be done, And the galley still needs to be done.

But I will have it sealed up good enough to use for now, till I have enough time (and $) to complete it. Over the winter I hope to redue a bunch of things that I just didn't have time to complete on it.

Ron,

Sounds like the trailer is really coming together.
We hope to head out again the following weekend for a 3 day trip, but not sure where we are gonna head, I vote for the coast!!

[240zron]

Tom,

Looks like we arn't going to be going to the coast after all this weekend. Had to take the wife into emergency last night with a ruptured apendex, So this weekend id off for me.

But at least she is OK

Thanks Madjack

The Dr, thinks the apendix ruptured last Tuesday. She was having a lot of pain, Called the Dr. He said the flu going around had this affect.

The pain came back last night and I made her go in. But they said she will be OK

[Toms_Strat]

Ron,

Please give our best to momma! She will also be in our prayers! Once she heals we willl have to check out that trailer!

Tom
