Hi Guys & Gals, :D

After what seems an eternity, I'm back trying to get this foolish trailer finished so I can get some camping done this summer.

Health reasons have side-lined me for several months, and I've had to enlist the aid of a friend of mine who has exceptional carpenter skills and a great sense of humor.

He's helping me with the hatch and the door and I'm going to try to get it "campable" in the next few weeks.

In restrospect, perhaps I should have used some plans. :oops: but as they say, hindsight is 20:20.

Pictures to follow. :thumbsup:

Thanks for the kind words. :)

My friend is a lead carpenter for the company that builds Cheesecake Factories, but he is out of town for weeks at a time.

Yesterday, he accomplished more on the hatch than I have been able to since i started.

I have to take it a little easy because of my back, but I think I'll be campable before too much longer. :applause:

I'll get some pix up this weekend.

Thanks again y'all.
