Newb from Indiana

Postby Moho » Tue Sep 13, 2011 9:07 am

I've been lurking for a couple months now getting my thoughts together for a build and finally started it. This forum was a WEALTH of information while putting my ideas together.

Build will be a Benroy shaped woody based off of a popup frame with an overhead bunk at the foot area for the 2 year old.

Started a blog to keep up with progress. I'm sure I'll be here often though.

Welcome to the insanity. The Hoosier tearjerkers group are a very active bunch with 3 formal gatherings a year ( 4 if you are really brave ).

The January Shivaree is always a good time if you are not faint of heart and don't mind the cold.

Our Fall gathering is Oct 14-16 at Mississinawa state park near Peru IN. Make it a day trip and stop in and say HI ! The pot luck dinner is promptly at 6:00 PM on Saturday and you and yours are invited.
Looking forward to seeing you there.

P.S. If you make it BillyK will be showing off his not quite finished but campable Benroy.

Here are a shot of me ( in the very large red shirt) helping him on his build

Welcome! I'm kind of a newb too. I have an almost 2 year old at home, so I'll be watching to see what you do.

Hey welcome to the group, Mo!

Greetings from the beautiful Blue Ridge Mountains of NC. I built mine with a sliding bunk, modified galley area to accommodate a family of five!

Keep us posted as to your progress!

Welcome, Moho. Nice to see some people from Indy here.

I haven't met BobHenry or the others yet, but I'm sure I'll be meeting them next year if I can't make it to the get-together next month.
