This is the place where you can introduce yourself, and include a photo if so desired.

Would like to add our Nor Cal welcome! We're just up the road in Chico and have set the Dam Gathering as our unofficial target date for completion. We just ran up to Redding a couple weekends ago and picked up all sorts of fun stuff from Grant. Hope to see you soon!

Hi! I grew up in Paradise and had family in Chico for years - Nice to meet you and look forward to comparing rigs (once I get it built)... Must admit, I've been hitting all the teardrop sites and have decided a couple of flamingos seem to be the essential item that trumps even the frame for importance... ;>)

Image to the playground Jon. I see the N.Cal suspects have found you. You can forget backing out now. 8) I hear they are good at hunting coons so you might be able to talk them into hunting ghosts.

We're obviously going to have to round some of these single women around this part of the country and send them to the dam gathering. Most have built their own TD though 8)

Have fun and we will look forward to the :pictures: :pictures: :pictures:

Hi everyone - I dropped off TNTTT for some years due to the stroke my father had and was helping take care of him for the final years of his life. I decided to pull the trailer project out of mothballs in March of this year, two years after Dad passed away and have been busy getting the trailer rehabilitated ( a redtrailers.com model ) and building the floor along with massive amounts of research here and on Youtube.

I've put together a build log at http://jonsteardrop.blogspot.com and will be posting my progress with regular articles and videos. My goal is to finish this teardrop by Summer and to be out on the road saying Hi to all of you!

Thanks for this site - it is a great resource and is already saving me from loads of mistakes! :D

I sure can relate to taking care of our parents. Can't wait to see pictures, trailers and ghosts.

Sorry to hear about your dad. That is a tuff deal but what a blessing to have you there for him when he needed you. Well done!

I'm looking forward to seeing your build come together for sure. Hope you still have a fine pony car to pull it with! If not a vehicle trade should be the first priority... :eyebrows2:
