Hi John:
Still building in Whitby. Guess it's a near tear. Hope to be ready for the vintage racing at Mosport in June.

Hi There;

I started building a couple of weeks ago.
Bought an old 4X8 Canadian tire fold up trailer and working on getting it into a Kenskill sort of 5X8.
I'll post picture soon. And I am located in Waterloo, Ontario, Canada

[LindaH-TNT]

Hi John (and all)

My fiance David (hinermad) and I just joined the forum and I am in Brampton. I automatically always list Toronto since not many people know of Brampton though!

To keep things interesting, David lives in upstate New York.

Ooh! Ooh! Do I count? I live in Ontario, Wayne County, New York. (The other Ontario, NY is Ontario County, which is southwest of here. That trips up lots of people. "Ontario is the seat of Ontario County, right?" Uh, no.)

I used to be upstate New York (Hamburg) before I moved to the deep South. NO way am I coming back to the North. My dad said he just turned off the furnace!!!!!!! I'm debating whether to turn on th A/C or not.

 

[jmullan99]

Well, my #2 project will be tear, probably oversized though. I live in Niagara Falls, Ontario, Canada (just so there is no confusion

My TTT is designed for tenting with, not sleeping in. Almost ready. I'm really hoping it is usable (see album for progress) by the Canada day long weekend coming up! Painting this weekend!

Cheers.

 

[Daid-TNT]

Hi All,

Dave from Grimsby here. I bought my tear the end of last summer from a guy in KW that custom built it. As the plywood was starting to delaminate, I paid to have it covered in aluminum this year. Love my TD! It's perfect for just me.

Has there ever been an attempt made to get a bit of an event together for all us little guys?

Regards,

Dave

 

[jmullan99]

I like the idea. Perhaps first an informal poll to see how many us in Ontario (even beyond) would like to have a gathering. Then determine a location. May be tough to arrange enough space at a campground anytime in the reasonable future. However, somewhere huge like Algonquin Park may be just the ticket.

PS: Dave, take some pictures and make an album.

 

[Daid-TNT]

I'm kind of thinking that a smaller private camp ground might be a good thing. I don't know how many people would want to come out for a weekend camp trip for the first year, might be a small group at first, but if it's good, we could certainly do more in years to come.

Album has been created, pictures posted.

Dave

 

[jmullan99]

Okay. So far, this thread has:

John & ? in Brampton, ON
Ken & ? in Ontario
Norm & Jeanne in Cornwall, ON
Dave & Kate in Ottawa, ON
Mark & April in Pembroke, ON
Donna & John in Welland, ON
Hermit in ON
Sandy in Whitby, ON
Norbert in Waterloo, ON
Charles in Chatham, ON
Linda & David in Brampton, ON and Ontario, NY
John & June, Niagara Falls, ON
Dave in Grimsby, ON

Not a bad list to start with. Not sure how many are monitoring this thread.......

So I will start with a formal request here.: Please, if you are in Ontario (or elsewhere if you desire) please let us know if you are interested in Ontario (Canada) based gathering, and suggestions of where abouts and possibly when.

Cheers,
John

PS: If there is a better way to go about this, I'm all ears!

If you got close to Minnesota with one of your get togethers, I would possibly make the trip into Canada. I'd have to figure out if I needed a passport yet.

I live in Sarnia, Ontario, with a partial teardrop build, we have a party of four in are family my wife, myself, my daughter and a Rotti. We purchased a 77 Boler, camped with it for a couple of seasons and have just recently sold it as of (Aug21/09). We had some likes and dislikes with the Boler all said and done we still enjoyed camping with it but would like to build and try out the teardrop which I believe would be more comfortable. My teardrop was or eventually will be in between a Modernair and a cabin car I have the profile and most of the parts to build it complete with the trailer frame with torsion suspension

 

[jmullan99]

I live in Sarnia, ontario with a partial teardrop build, we have a party of four in are family my wife, myself, my daughter and just got a new Rotti pup in February. Even though I want to continue with the teardrop build we decided it would be a little to crowded for the four of us and purchased a 77 boler. My teardrop was or eventually will be in between a modernair and a cabin car I have the profile and most of the parts to build it complete with the trailer frame with torsion suspension and would like to build and camp with the teardrop when it would be just the wife and myself. I like the boler and it has a bit more room and I can stand up in it but it still isn't a teardrop and I sure like those little campers!

Welcome Demtears. Boler or Teardrop, an Ontario gathering of Tear owners or enthusiats is valid either way!

I have not seen much response, but many may just not be monitoring this thread and do not get email notification.

Perhaps we'll have to send some PMs, if that is appropriate. Hmmmmm.

No problem, and in are neck of the woods if any are traveling this way or through these parts we do have a nice Provincial Park that we frequently visit called the Pinery's located on the shores of Lake Huron. A very nice park with many hiking trails,biking trails,and a nice beach to relax on. The park is also located just a few minutes from Grand Bend your typical beach town with the main strip or road that brings you through all the towns shops right down to the beach that has a parking area. Maybe this is old news and you have been here but here is a link http://www.ontarioparks.com/ENGLISH/pine.html
