Hi all,

Just wanted to come out of the lurking shadows and say hello. I have just recently been bitten hard by the TTT 'bug' and I'm so glad to find a forum like this! The friendliness and support and the sheer amount of knowledge here is astounding. :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

I am still in the dreaming/planning stage but I hope to make a nuisance of myself real soon. :twisted:

Richard, welcome to the board. Another Oregonian, that's two in two days. Check out the Dam Gathering of the Tears the first weekend of May down at Shasta. Info here
Stop on by and you can see about 60 tears to get ideas and meet a lot of really great people. Plus Grant Whipp will be there (he's the host) and a great source for teardrop parts.

If you have to bring a tent, I hear rumor you wouldn't be the only one.
If you do what you've always done, you'll get what you've always got.

Richard, Ditto on the Welcome aboard. I'm up in the valley. Have fun, and just to warn you, You'll have a hard time thinking about anything other than building. There are so many options you can do dependent only on your abilities and tools.

One of these days we'll all meet.
