so what you'r saying is, that we camp-inn owners shouldn't be giving so much credit to those two slouchers out back. they were just doing what they were told.


Oh, I wouldn't go THAT far...I merely expressed what I felt I needed to have in order to be comfortable (slight claustrophobia here). They are the ones who figured out cool ways to make it all happen.

every Camp-inn is handcrefted and specially built for each and every owner with special care given to all the needs that each owner has


And I would go THIS far...Subsequent Camp-Inns have added features/options that came from requests of customers. :)

And now it's time to return this thread to your poll. :yes:

I have a 1947 Lazybones I fixed up. But plan on building an other in the near future.
Is it true? Is it necessary? Is it kind? Ask yourself these simple questions every time you are in doubt about any action.

hello madjack,
I looked but theres no box to check for a fish trailer,
I guess my box might say "fish outa water",
Just kidding, I know my trailer barely fits in around here and I'm glad yall let me hang around. I really did plan to build a teardrop when I started but the damned thing kept growing in size,
My original plan was for a fish / teardrop shape, 5' X 8' - 5' tall, but when I started construction my plans changed. I guess there is something to the old fish stories, they do (fish) grow quite a bit after you catchem,

Say George, in the beginning I was following your build. I was always second guessing what you were going to do next. ;) Then all of a sudden either the site disapeared or I just lost track of it. From what I can see in your Avatar, it looks like something you would find in a Gypsy camp (that's good). Do you have more finished pictures somewhere?

Have a good day.

:thinking:

Those " Little Guys " sure are nice too..

Much of the question whether one buys or builds, boils down to..." Have you got more time or more money ?"..LOL

Being retired and with a health challenged wife...I have more time rather than money...

Teardropping sure can be fun, either way...

We have a 1995 Lonely Teardrop. They were built from the 1980's thru early 2000's.

Haven't decide who is building who. OUCH.
Mine is in the garage with tools all around,waiting for me to give it attention instead of sitting here wondering where the muscles went.

chipper :thumbsup:


An optimist says: There's a light!

A pessimist says: It's dark in here!

A cynic says: Why did I come this way in the first place???

Therefore, I'm glad to see you at the optimist stage, whilst I am stuck in the cynical phase with mood swings into pessimision...
