N00b from PA

Ack, I hate being a n00b. :)

Just saying hello... I'm going to attempt to build my teardrop from the generic benroy plans found on this very site. I've lurked her for a bit, after finding that many google searches end up here!

Hey Gus,
Welcome, where you from in Pa Im in Altoona. Your gonna love this site. All kinds of helpful info and the people are great. I just finished up my paint on my Tear earlier today. Did you join the TearJerker site? Its a camping club that apparently has some great gatherings. Nice people there also.
Good Luck on your build.

Knoebel Park Gathering

Postby BillandMarijo » Wed Sep 10, 2008 7:28 pm

Gus,
I believe there is a gathering at Knoebel Park Campground on Sept 19th weekend. I dont know where you are from but maybe its closer for you.
We havent made a gathering yet but I still am trying to get to the Fall Foliage in October at Parvin State Park.
Good Luck on your build.

Hey! Welcome! I was roaming around in your area on Sunday.

I think Sunday was the nicer of the weekend days, so that's good! I think Saturday was just a deluge. :(

Welcome Gus. I'm new too but everyone is very friendly and there are great ideas on this forum.

Hi Gus,
I'm an "almost newbie" myself, from New Hope.

Thanks! It's good to have somebody else embarking on the Benroy at about the same time, maybe we'll run across similar questions along the way.

My build has begun in a little bit of a strange fashion, I've actually started with the cabinets, as I haven't picked up my trailer yet. Figured I'd do something between then and the time I picked it up. :)
