That is way cool, Mike!
I can hardly wait to see a picture of what the finished trailer will look like with the *real* Canyonlands in the background! Keep up the great work and hope to meet up with you and the family in the desert someday! Canyonlands is one of our all-time favorites, too!

Jeanette, We will definatly be there in Canyonlands this coming spring to ride the Whiterim, we had it sceduled for the first weeknend in November, but we didn't like the fact that the days were so short and who knows about the weather. So our new plan is to go out there in late spring.

Your sides are going to look totally cool!!
I know Minwax makes prestain conditioners for soft woods like pine that you apply before you stain to help get a more even stain. They do help. I'm not sure if they are used for water base stains or not, but the cans would say. Worth looking into.

We're trying but of course there are set backs, today we were supposed to start the epoxy process, but can't seem to find epoxy rollers on a Sunday or Monday due to Labor day, we need to wait until Tuesday to buy the rollers. If we can't make it with our TT then I think we will still come but tent camp it and bring pictures and hang them up.
