Labor Day Camping trip

Did anyone else do anything fun over the holiday weekend?
We went to a small campground not far from home...a village park in Stockholm Wisconsin right on Lake Pepin, which is a wide spot in the Mississippi River.
Great weather...got to play with my new Coleman oven. It unfolds to make a box that sits on top of my gas stove. Made some good muffins for breakfast, some cheese-garlic biscuits to go with dinner and a very good appetizer pizza.
Met a lot of people, once again...everytime you stop people want a tour and want to know all about the tiny camper.
Perfect weekend...even the guy next door, he turned out to be bluegrass guitar player and we both had our guitars. Lots of playing & singing at our campfire that night.

How heavy is your tear? Any problems with the PT pulling it? I am in the thought process of building a TTT and I have an 06 PT 5 speed.

Kitcarguy - No problems towing with the P/T. Mine is has an auto trans. It slows down a bit on some of the steep hills in our area but I can easily run 70 mph on the interstates. I used the Generic Benroy plans but built it 4' wide and lowered the axle on the trailer so it tucks in behind the P/T real well.
I haven't weighed the trailer but it's a fairly basic, light build I'm guessing that loaded for a weekend it would be just over 800lbs.
