I discovered Teardrop Trailers and Camp Inn specifically from my parents who had picked up a brochure at the Back to the 50s Weekend at the Minnesota State Fairgrounds. I loved what I saw! I checked out their website. My brother and I drove down to Neceda to see one in person.

I loved them even more. Almost as much as I love to travel. I've attached a couple photos from that visit oh so long ago. I publish a travel website www.welcometoamerica.us where I post photos and videos of all my travels. There is a link to me on the Camp Inn website so maybe some of you have seen it.

I have yet to get my dream home away from. But as I get to the point where I can make getting one a priority I am thinking about it more and more. What features I would like, or not. How to decorate and make it uniquely mine. What to call it. I came up with "Spirit of Adventure" from the movie "Up". I've been looking through the forum and enjoy seeing photos and reading about everyone's experiences with their own Teardrops.

I want to pay off my truck first but then I should be all set to place my order in time to have it for my 50th birthday trip to Disney World in 2020.

Welcome! The dreaming, planning & waiting period can be extremely exciting.........and excruciating. I believe the "dream" stage is definitely part of the right of passage into the CampInn family/lifestyle; and then it only gets better from there.....except for the pain of life's demands getting in the way of camping and traveling near as much as I'd like!

I'll have to get a few trips under my belt before I do anything too dramatic. After years of the idea being on various burners, usually the back one, I now have a pretty good idea of my timeline and how I can make it fit with my budget in a practical way. I'm going to have my truck paid off in January 2020 if not sooner so...

June 2019 - trip to Nacida and place an order
Dec 2019 - build should start. As I understand there is a 6 month waiting list?
Jan 2020 - Pay off my truck
March/April 2020 - Pick up my trailer and drive it back to Minnesota
April/2020 - First night with my trailer camping in "The Swamp". Basically my parents back yard that we always would have cook outs and Camp while growing up.
May 2020 - 3 day 2 night test trip to Northern Minnesota and the North Shore.
June 2020 - Florida trip to Disney World for my 50th birthday.
