Hello from the PNW!!!

Postby Bob Loblaw » Mon Feb 16, 2015 5:27 pm

Hello! I recently became interested in teardrop trailers after a trip to the local sportsmans show. They seem like such a fun way to go out on an adventure and a great use of space. I have some property in Central Oregon that I'm slowly trying to turn into my homestead. Having a teardrop trailer is going to make the trips so much nicer and warmer! I've already purchased my trailer and some of the parts, with any luck I should have it all built by April. Thank you all for the amazing ideas and inspiration, this website is awesome!

Welcome fellow PNW'er!! I think there are a couple others from the south part of the state.... You are right... they are easy to tow... easy to get up and go... we were thinking the same thing buying some property in eastern Washington around Tonasket... and the trailer is so easy to tow... we can take off quickly....

We are getting ready to go over to Prosser next weekend... that will be our longest tow... so far...

good luck and post pictures!!

Hi Bob
Welcome to the Forum! :thumbsup:
And Yes, there are a lot of Teardrop Events right here in the PNW.
As the new Chapter Director for the PNW Chapter of the Tear Jerkers, I am currently trying to prepare a Membership Roster
that I can share with all of the members in our Region.
This will act as a contact list so that we can keep everyone apprised of what is going on and coming up in the Teardrop Camping circle.
Please let me know when you are ready to join in.

Thank you all for the warm welcome! I'm going to start a build journal tonight or tomorrow. Luckily I've been taking pics of my progress so far (which isn't much lol).
