Teardrops n Tiny Travel Trailers

I recommend deep frying!

Sounds like a job for one of those inferno-causing deep fat fryers. If you use one, set it up away from your trailer....

But, if used correctly, they do a good job, so I've heard.......

I can cook one on a gas grill. How about a Thanksgiving potluck??
P.S. Diane, Thanks for the gifts, they look great in the tear!!

Steve & Phyllis-
I'm glad you like your gifts. It was nice seeing you both again. Looking forward to seeing you in October

Hi all,

Well after much discussion Joan & I will not be coming to the fall Tear Up. Our favorite kayaking event is the following weekend ,and with the cost of gas now days,one tank is easier to afford then three. As much as we wanted to see that beautiful area in the fall,I guess we will have to wait until next year. I have an Aunt & Uncle that lost everything in Gulfport , Mississippi. The family is pooling together money,and clothing to help out,thus the decision not to go. They are staying with another daughter in Alabama,and are safe ,and comfortable. Hopefully we will join you in the spring. You all have fun,and post some pictures

Hi Bill,

Sorry you guys can't make it this fall. Do hope we can meet up in the spring again though, it was a blast! Next years weather is going to be better too... I promise!

Hi all!

Just an update on the TearDown Oct 7-10...

So far we have 6 trailers / 12 campers...

Kate and I
JP, Kathy and the Twins
Norm and Jeanne,

Steve and Phylis
Ron and Sherry

Anyone else I missed?

Fish Creek closes some of the sites off as the season progresses. Only sites 1-138ish are available by mid October. This is fine as in the fall it is great to be on the eastern side of the ponds which offer fine views of the fall colors, the mountains and the moon!

The best bet for sites will be in the 101-124 range. Since at this time they do not take reservations, you'll be able to arrive and pick out your site. We'll hopefully be arriving early... maybe on the Thursdays ourselves, or early Friday to case out available spots and perhaps leave a note at the front gate to give you the scoop. Would be nice to get us all close/fairly close together.

Check out some of our photos from the same time at Fish Creek back in 2003 by visiting our Photo Galley at http://campadk.com/pjsnoozer/pjphotos.html and clicking on the Fish Creek Pond Oct 10-13, 2003 link.





Don't forget your bikes!





Cheers!

Hello again everyone-

We are going to try to get to the TearDown. Since we don't have to make reservations, it should make it easier. We went to PEI Cape Breton, and Nova Scotia for 12 days. Had a great time other than the gas was $5.30 a gallon. Glad we didn't have a 36' motorhome. We should arrive sometime Thursday.
Questions from Rick: Should I bring Tequila? Will Kate have her blender? Do you make the margueritas with Triple Sec or Grande Marnier?
Looking forward to seeing everyone.

Hi Rick 'n Peg! Boy you two get around in that Camp-Inn! $5.30 a gal? Really? No worry.. it'll be cheaper in NY.

Now about that Tequila. YES! We haven't been using any triple sec or GM, but we don't have a problem trying that out! I'll be sure to remind Kate to pack the blender. WARNING! I make them strong (Diane and Rick will attest to that)... so good luck!

hey guys, I'm the one who showed up late at the spring Tear up with white teardrop. I'll try my best to get up there for your Tear Down. You throw a great party and I would love to see you all again. Count me in for now.

Darla & Dennis are un-able to make the teardown. We are cutting costs so we can make the Fall Crawl in NC. We have reservations that were made way before all this weather and gas price crap.

Y'all have a great time and hope to make the spring tearup.

Dennis & Darla

HI there. My name is Dave. I am making plans to build my own teardrop and would love the opportunity to meet with you all at Fish Creek to get some ideas and hear some tales. Are reservatons necassary? Are marguritas necassary? lol. See you all then.

We just returned from our first overnighter in our teardrop. We stayed close to home. We went to Verona Beach State Park (1hr away) on the Eastern shore of Onedia Lake. We would love to attend the Fish Creek gathering. We really want to see how the weather will be. If the weather is raining we may try to go to the Liberty Bell Tearjerker gathering in NJ if the weather will be better. Both gatherings will take about the same time to get to.
Do you have an idea of how many teardrops are attending and the sites they have reserved. We would be staying Sunday night only. I'll try to make reservations at Fish Creek tomorrow.

Hi All-
Although Diane and I were looking forward to seeing everyone one last time before winter is upon us, we won't be able to make it to the Teardown. I have some health issues I have to address but should be right as rain for the 2006 Spring Tear-Up.
Steve- I haven't forgot about you, the profile for the Metzendorf is rolled up and ready to go. Any Ideas where I can get a six foot shipping tube? Seems they are a rare commodity in Syracuse. Maybe I'll have to use PVC pipe cut to size.
Hope the weather is good this weekend and everyone has fun.

Sorry to hear that We'll miss you both. Get well soon. Don't go out of your way too much about the profile! But, I get hinges from Grant Whip in pvc pipe. He plugs the ends and sends it UPS. Obviously, I'll cover the costs!
Take care, Both of you! We'll see you in the spring, and will keep in touch in the meantime.

Hey Dave! what sites are we shooting for?
