We will be bringing green beans for the pitchin and maybe alittle something else. Lisa's birthday is on the 18th, so I will also be bringing a cake. Can not wait to see everyone. My favorite time of the year. TEARDROP TIME !!! :D
I am a workaholic that loves a good challenge. It will also give my dad and me a good project to work on together. I plan on putting several miles on this teardrop, so I want to build it right.

Hey Kurt do you still want a redneck hot water heater or did you find one?


Anyone else ??? I have two 32 cup coffee makers extra. [5 to 6 bucks each]

They make a great toy hot water heater
( and a good big pot of coffee too)

Still have 3 satelite dutch oven tables complete with shelf. [ 40$]

I am only gonna drag them along if someone is interested.

Bob its an awning not a canopy as i said before
it has no legs 2 arms that fold in and you use a crank to
bring it in and out i made a crank
to see if it was still good
And low and behold it works and the canvas is in great shape

Like a "sunsetter" awning on the TV commercials or similar to the big RV ones. That was what I had visions of.

Don't think I'm going to make it down there this weekend. Camper is not done and my weekends to work on it are filling up.

So i think I will use this weekend to make some good progress on it. I really do hope to be ready by the summer gathering.

Hope everyone has fun and I want to see lots of pictures.
