You've been bitten by the bug. There is only 1 cure, as Chip and some of the others will attest to...

You gotta start building.

It's weekend... I'm building!!!!
Is anyone else building this weekend?

Yaa... Storefront, lots of it.
Hey, one good thing about having to postpone the camping trip with the kids;
I just got a message from Kai, The Little Range is on it's way! Now I'll be able to do a shake down with it and bake them their pizza. (I just played Kai's message for them, so they don't mind having to wait on the camping trip a bit)

We figured out a name for our teardrop, it will be the Bobcat. I've added a pic to my album of a bobcat, now I've been trying to figure out how to add it to my profile. HELP!!!! I can't seem to get it to come up.

Make sure it's not too big... 150x150 is the max dimensions, and 21K is the max size.

Thanks again Mike. I found where we can order Bobcat decals for the side of the teardrop. Bobcat is a combination of our names, Bob and Cathy.

Now my home state (KY) has the KY Wildcats b-ball team so I am sure you could poke around searching by wildcats and find something similar if you need to.

I took that to extremes myself. Ordered the 1175# trailer and when I found out it was out of stock I ended up ordering the 1800# trailer instead since it was in-stock. I better build it fast!! I don't have a doghouse to live in when the wifey kicks me out!!

Cool name for your tear..... My wife and I are thinking we'll call ours the "Tinkering Turtle". Like the guy said on RV Crazy..."You have to add just a touch of wimzy". I like to think a theme adds class.

For model scale see if you can find a model or diecast model of your tow vwhicle or something darn close to it and build your model to that scale. It gives a much better idea of what you want. That's what I did. Alan

Now that would be one way to keep busy during the cold winter months

I'd prefer to camp out. I plan on ALOT of insulation in my TD. I have a 12v electric blanket also.

Psst... Eric,
Look where Cathy and Bob live.
(It gets just a "little-bit" colder there in the winter time :coldcold: )

Just a little, in fact, campgrounds close the end of Sept., some will close after this weekend. Summer sure flew past this year. Even if you did find a campground open, I think you would want an indoor kitchen. A teardrop wouldn't be nearly big enough for winter camping. Not enough room for boots, parkas, etc.

Cathy,

You will just have to plan a winter trip down here in the sunny south, it's cool enough here in the winter that you won't need the A/C! And forget the heater, a thin blanket will mostlikely do. When we were in MICH. lot's of people came down for "winter vacations" more like a break from winter! I liked the winters up there, but sometimes they are a little long and a warm, clear sky break is just the ticket.

[mikeschn]

Can we plan a winter trip down there too?
