Yo, Dean!

Congratulations on "finishing" the build! First rate all the way, and B-E-A-U-T-I-F-U-L-! to boot ... :thumbsup: ... way to go!

I'll look forward to seeing it & you in person one day, soon! Love the pic of your daughter in her bunk, too ... my wife (Lisa) may be in touch with you after the Dam Gathering for more details and possible inclusion in an upcoming issue of Tales & Trails.

In the meantime, go out and enjoy the fruits of your labor ... you certainly deserve it! As always, then ...

CHEERS!

That looks fantastic. Very classy curves on the fenders and the galley is superb looking.

Beautiful job! Looks like it was worth the wait to me. Now it's time to go out and enjoy it, and summer is just around the corner 8).

Beautiful - Beautiful! The color looks great with the tow vehicle too! That was pretty darn smart to incorporate the sliding bunk. Now the camping madness starts... :thumbsup:

Man, that looks great Dean! Oh and campable translates into "Done" enough to call it done. I thnk the consensus is that it is never done, and so far I am seeing that as true, but that's alright. Your teardorp looks very professionally built!

Great job!!! I love the fenders and that bunk.
As a dreamer of dreams and a travelin' man,
I have chalked up many a mile.
Read dozens of books about heroes and crooks,
And I've learned much from both of their styles.

Beautiful job, Dean!

The 4.5 years was time well-spent! Now take your family camping again and create some great childhood memories for your daughter!

PS, have you noticed yet that bunks are actually diving boards? :lol:
