Hi From Chattanooga TN

Postby briandudeathome » Tue Aug 17, 2010 7:44 am

Hello everyone! My name is Brian, I discovered this site last week and have been reading lot's of post and looking over many of your pictures. As you can tell by the title, I live in Chattanooga, TN. My wife and I do not currently own a teardrop but are very interested in obtaining one. Anyway, I'll keep this short, just wanted to check in and say hi to everyone. I'll see you crazy kids on the road... when I get a trailer that is haha

Welcome! My mom lives in East Ridge so I'm familiar with Chattanooga. Lots of good camping spots within a couple hours in any direction. As for a Big Orange camper, maybe I need to build mine red and black with a bulldog? Nah, nobody has fans as rabid as thhe University of Tennessee!

(incidentally, I was born within view of Neyland Stadium but escaped...I mean moved to Hawaii).
I dream of a day when a chicken can cross the road without having his motives questioned.

I'm only 5 mins from East Ridge. I'm near the Hamilton Place Mall area, which I'm sure you're familiar with. Yeah, TN fans are a bit nuts if you ask me LOL

Hey and welcome, it is good to see someone else from Chattanooga. I made a post last week but for some reason it is gone.
I started out with nothing and I still got plenty left.

Jim,

I've not fully decided if I will be building or simply purchasing, I'm leaning towards buying. I'm not much of a builder honestly and I live in an apartment with no garage which makes it difficult to build. I'm very interested in the Little Guy line of TD's, but I've seen lot's of different ones that I like.
