Teardrops n Tiny Travel Trailers

After resting up from five sleepless nights in Atlanta, I got a little done today!

Under this pile of clamps is the counter top, and the lower cabinet framing!! :lol:

I'll get a better shot tomorrow, when I take them off!
I'll start the doors in between work on another project.
I'm wondering if I'll have her ready for the NYS Tearjerkers meet, first weekend in June..

Like Gage says...

Remember 'Teardrop Time'.......Take your time, you don't have to have it finished NOW.

Haven't updated in a while! I've been struggling with interruptions for medical tests over the last two weeks, and a sudden increase in the work load at the "real job"!

I got the roof wired, insulated and skinned.
Here's some shots, More on my site!

The first outing for us is in Watkins Glenn, the first weekend in June! We don't have a trailer,sooooo

I'm not giving up 'til the last minute!!
Ray may be coming out for a 'glassing "lesson" :lol:

Things have a way of suddenly getting done!
I made a list Friday, and I'm already done with 5 items..but the list is 20 or so!! :shock:

That's just "camp-able"!
I'll give you a call after this weekend. I'll have a clearer picture of things then. Thanks!
