Welcome to the forum from the other side of Florida. Are you building or did you buy one or like many, still thinking? ;)

Hi Ken, welcome to the forum. I'm sure many of us would like to know a little bit of what brought you here, if you are interested in camping, or plan to build or buy a vilntage trailer or a teardrop. Many of us have been on the fence too, so enlighten us a bit. Thanks.

Hi Ken,
Welcome to the forum. Be sure to read the information about getting started and listing pictures. It takes a little while to learn your way around, but it is fun. I am a newbie from Georgia with a tiny travel trailer instead of a Teardrop.There are several fall gatherings coming up, one in Florida and one in Georgia. It might be time to join in on the fun. KF

How I came here

Postby AzureDolfin » Sun Oct 05, 2008 10:22 am

Thank you all for the warm welcome.

I am at the "thinking about it" phase. I was telling Mike, I found out about tear drops/tiny trailers in a TV show on one of the cable channels (HGTV, Travel, etc). I was fascinated by this idea, and realize that this idea goes back to the early 1930's. I can't really tell you why these tiny trailers really fascinate me , but they do.

Again, I am looking forward to interacting with all of you (or as they say down here "y'all"..LOL) and sharing my thoughts & ideas. Thanks for the warm welcome.

Warm regards,

Ken aka AzureDolfin

Image to the playground Ken. When you get that plan nailed down be sure to share it with us.

When you get to the sawdust stage, take lots of :pictures: :pictures: :pictures: to keep the bubble oil level and keep the Madones happy. :thumbsup:
