Heck Yaa... They have some rv sites the electric and water hook ups too.
Just get there early in the week 'cuse it's first come first serve over there.
There is also Grizzly Creek State Park about 20 miutes up the road too.
(They survived the Govenator's Teminator Budget Cut)
You could always try sneekin' into the IRG too. :thinking:

Ron and Lucia, :thumbsup: I really appreciate your encouraging visit and help today. Just a few more things left to do so I can move on to assembling and fiberglassing the walls. It'll be a (big) push to have a street legal, campable, teardrop by IRG. Once the walls go up things will pick up speed. :thumbsup: Have primer (on the outside) will travel.:thumbsup: :thumbdown: I really don't want to sleep in a tent at IRG. :thumbdown:

Steve,
You're not the only one who doesn't want to sleep in a tent at the IRG... :R
Just today, we finished the pulp mill shutdown, nine days ahead of schedule I might add... So I'm back in the loop.
I've got a ton of emails, private messages and phone calls to return regarding IRG stuff. :?
Let's see, what else?...
Oh Yaa...
Getting things squared away for the event... Any thing else?
Oh that's right... Getting my build "campable". (I didn't say finish) :R
First order of business...
Sleep in tomorrow morning, can't remember the last time I got to do that. :?

Kevin A,
Don't even think about calling me tomorrow morning. :fb

Looks to me that the challenge is of the three of us, are we going to be there with what is in work, finished or not. :thinking: ;)

Yup... Joanie says to leave off the fancy skins for now, says I'm too finicky and won't get it "done enough" if I tackle that...
Meanwhile... I'm gearing up for some fancy tinsmithin'...
For the next build. :lol:

Hint...

Think Mini-Spartan. :shhh:

If time allows, I might put my new found skills to the test and whip out some fenders. :thinking:

Looks like the race is on, whether I want to or not. Are there any others also racing to be done enough to camp in their TD at IRG?

I just want to be finished, enough, to camp in MY teardrop at IRG and Mendo. A "race" may make me more nervous and prone to (more) stupid mistakes. I've built two insulated floors. :x First one was too narrow and too short.

Besides, Gage, isn't the teardrop you're working on for your sis? So, whether it's finished, or not, you and Tanya have several choices of warm comfy places to sleep - in your TD or your Tiny Trailer. Won't it be your sis who may have to sleep in a tent if you're done enough with the TD in time for IRG?

:thinking: Maybe, you're under more pressure than you're letting on, Gage. Would Tanya and/or your sis make you sleep in a tent? :cry: Probably not. :shock:

Dean, enjoy some good sleep and rest. :)

Bed time for me too. Good night all.

Remember, campable does not mean finished.

No fenders, two screws and a bungie holding the hatch on and no sealant on the bare luan.

This is on my way to the IRG.

Just go camping.

Boy, you don't know my sis. But then again with your last line, you just may. Wouldn't be sleeping in a tent but there is the truck. Today was my sister's last day to teach. She wants to know if there is anything she can help with. :thinking:

Kevin,
Gold Coast (telephone solicitors) called me at 8:00am this morning...
The conversation was short and to the point...
They will not be calling me back.
