Newbie from Western Washington

Been lurking around awhile and finally decided to join up. I have done ever form of outdoor living from foxhole to fifth wheel. I am wanting to build a teardrop so I can have it my way and to fill up all my FREE time after retiring from the Army (oh and my back hates the cold hard ground). Can wait to see you all at the campground!!!

Welcome to this great site and thanks for serving our country Good luck with your build

This is a great place for build information, but do remember that it will take at least twice as long as you think it will.
Ours did! But we have had two seasons in it now and have met some great people.
We love the new lifestyle the TD has afforded us.
Good Luck! and keep us posted.

First,
Congrats on your retirement , I retired from the Coast Guard. It's great.

This forum is awesome, there is a lot of knowledge on teardrop building here. Be sure to keep an eye out for outings to visit. Everyone we met is more than willing to share their successes and mistakes.

Even when you get your teardrop completed It's never really done. After every outing we go to we find something else that will make it better. It's a never ending build, but its FUN!!!!!

Can't wait to see you at the campgrounds.

Welcome fellow Washingtonian! I just built mine this year, and it was fun building and has been a blast camping in... Just like you.. I did not want to sleep on the ground again...
I just posted some pictures in the Trips, Pics and Hiway tales section of some Washington Camping. Good Luck it will be fun!
