Calling for 10 year and longer members

General Discussion about almost anything Teardrop or camping related

Re: Calling for 10 year and longer members

I joined Jun 20, 2004 so there are lots of familiar names on this thread!

I haven''t been around the forum much for the last few years, my TD is no longer around but I am still hanging in there thanks to my wife and the VA. I just decided to check in today to see if any of the old timers were still around and found this thread quite appropriate.

I mostly putter around in my woodworking/welding/home brew/leather working shop these days, and do volunteer work helping with the sets for the local community theater. That, and an acre and a half of yard with over 50 trees keeps me busy. :beer:

Darn Larwyn, I've missed your posts. Have often thought of you last couple of years, & wondered if you were still around. Glad you're still checkin' in... :thumbsup:

12+ years - April 2004 for this forum. Have been on other teardrop forums since 2000.

Still pop into this one and occasionally post. Life & teardrops keep us busy!

Still visiting even though I'm no longer a teardrop owner. Gave my little Simple Rimple to a kayak friend and now enjoy traveling in my custom coach.

It's always fun to talk "teardrop" when I see one in camp.

I've been a member since 2006 when I was first planning to build but I never did. Family and life just got in the way but I have never let the dream die...….NEWSFLASH!!!!!! I JUST ORDERED MY TRAILER FOR MY FIRST BUILD!!!!! I'm gonna build a simple or rimple since its only me and my wife now. My kids are both grown and out of the house and I finally convinced my wife its not "like sleeping in a coffin"! I'll try to do a build thread but right now I gotta get a lifetime of crap out of my garage!

Ten years? I just arrived.
Holy cow, Rose is a teenager now! Done? Surely you jest. A teardrop is never "done".

Just checking in. . . . joined date Sat May 12, 2007
it's been a while since I have posted, but with an increase in responsibility (job) comes less time for other activities. We are still building small campers, but now with grandkids!
Since joining, we have built at least 10 tiny campers! Thanks for all the help you have given us. :thumbsup:

I joined Wed May 19, 2004. That's a while ago although I haven't posted since 2012 before today. I posted in the "For Sale" section as I'm selling my 5x10 homebuilt.

Joined May 12, 2004. Sold my teardrop years ago and moved to a vintage trailer. There is enough crossover between the two to keep me interested and there are enough discussion lines
of interest to me. Now I also follow things to help advise a friend who is trying to follow her own teardrop dream. I check back most days, it is sad to see the decline in activity but it ain't dead yet. :?

Looks like I joined in 2008, but didn’t get a TD until 2012, and my fist post wasn’t until 2012.
