Hi from Alberta, Canada

Postby Albertagal » Mon Mar 26, 2007 3:03 pm

I am Beth from Alberta and I usually travel the back roads of here,
Montana and Wyoming. I also travel to annual Sturgis Rally in South
Dakota and Oregon down to mid California when I can.

I am a divorcee with married kids I belong to a wine tasting club, PT
Cruiser club and the Red Hat Society where I have my own chapter.

I like plays, cinema, rodeo, photography, writing rambles, mystery
novel, tv, fairs n festivals,cats, naturism, puttering around the
garden,visiting historic or naturalist area, having a good meal with
family or friends while the laughter and wine flows and so much more.

8) Hi Beth, from Alberta.
You intro states what you like to do with your life....Does it include hooking a teardrop trailer up to that PT Cruiser or yours? Just browsing the site, or building?? Whichever is the case, welcome to the site. If you have pictures, be sure to show them as this site sure loves to see 'em. You mentioned you get to mid-California, so how about the North Coast Redwood Region?? If you get a chance, check out the website below for the IRG to see some of the things we do in our neck of the woods.

Bye for now,
Joanie

Welcome to the board. Like TDN asks, what is your current Teardrop status? If you don't already have one, are you interested in buying or building?? Which ever, you surely can get the information that you need on this board.

I have been through the Redwoods a few times so thank you so very much for the link to the 2008 gathering. I do hook up my semi teardrop to my PT. Last long trip was to Cruiserfest in Modesto in 05 with stops along the way from the coast to Yosemite. While on the road I write "cowboy style" rambles to go along with my photography or maybe it's the other way around. ;)

I have a larger edition made 20yrs ago by a friend that holds 2 adults and has a back bunk area for 2 small kids or in my case now just me and my travel items. It does have a back hatch but only for the spare tires, tools and what evers. I am not a fix it lady so it is so very nice to find a site as this to learn more about making my baby look great .

This is so me.........

You will appreciate the humour in this I did not really know how to
attach it to the hitch. When I first tried it fell off the hitch as
I went down my back ally and the hitch went through the front of the
trailer. That is why it has a metal shield in the front of it now.
The hitch of course did not make the inside wall too pretty either.
Thank heavens for duc tape. The inside had wood panelling.


I also would like to get it painted to match my PT. Of course that
means my travel stickers and more that I put on the back would go
poof..:cry: Oh well the snow is melting so that means I can see it again :pinktear:

I have lots of gifs I can send you along with the RH games book and the 3 song books. I am velvetqueen on the QMB and am up to 1219 post the last one on this subject.

Hi AlbertaGal - here's a link to another thread with some Alberta folks in it. We even talked breifly about holding a campout, but some of us are still not very done on the building project.

Here's the thread...

Hi Beth from another Alberta gal. My trailer isn't a true teardrop, as its a cargo conversion. Its good to see another person on here from Alberta. It would still be nice to organize a campout to see how many of us there are.

To the other Albertans on here, do you think you might be close enough to completion to maybe get together Labor day weekend at maybe Gull Lake or some other central place?
