New to teardrops

[monkeyislandrn]

We have been bit by the teardrop bug. We are VERY new to this and in the looking stage for a teardrop. I would like for my husband to build us one but he prefers to buy an older model and modify. Would it be okay if we came down to the gathering April 1st? I would just like to see more teardrops all in one place. We would just be there for a couple of hours, not overnight. (if I am not working that weekend)
Thanks!

Monkey girl(Icouldn't resist saying that) welcome to the board...you (and hubby) would be very welcome to come over to Beaver's Bend and spend as much time as you would like...bring camera amd note book, it looks like there will be 8-10 tears and around 20 people...you will get a chance to see some tears first hand and get a little idea of the social aspects of these wonderful little trailers

Thanks so much for making us feel welcome. Yes, you CAN call me Monkey girl, living on Monkey Island we seem to be destined for a monkey theme. Can't wait to check my work schedule tonight, hope we can make it!!

Welcome to the world of teardrops. No matter if you buy, build, or redo, teardrops become an obsession.

I haven't attended any gatherings, but am looking forward to Beavers Bend. Come on down, the more the merrier!

Monkey girl...You will find that a couple of hours at a teardrop gathering will turn into all day. You are more than welcome to come join us.. You will really have teardrop fever when you leave.
We are all looking forward to showing off our teardrops.
See you guys at Beaver's Bend

Welcome from another Oklahoman. But where the heck is Monkey Island?

YES Make it to Beavers Bend and stay and sit a while... Actually standing at the galley, and laying down inside a cabin of a teardrop will have you hooked !!!

I echo all the greetings above. We love visitors at our little gatherings. Linda is right it'll turn into a full day for you. Look forward to seeing you.

Yes, Monkey Island is on Grand Lake up in the far northeast corner of OK. It is really a peninsula not a true island anymore. It is really beautiful up here. We are okies that have come home after living 3 yrs in Florida. Just moved back last Sept. I looked up where Beavers Bend is exactly and it is quite a ways, but if I am off work we will try to drive down. Looking forward to meeting all of you!
