Hailing from Alpharetta, GA

Hello to all from Karen and Glenn.

My signed contract and check are on their way to Wisconsin. Karen and I are looking forward to our 550 Ultra and the ensuing travels through this great country of ours. I'm a 49 year old computer scientist who's spent too much time behind a computer monitor. I'll be working less and less, and traveling more and more. Like a few others on this forum, I've agreed to buy a Camp Inn trailer sight unseen. The depth of information on this forum and the variety of internet media worked together to highlight the impeccable craftsmanship of Camp Inn. That made my decision easy. More than once I was watching a video of a new Camp Inn trailer only to learn that it was actually 4 or more years old.

My wife has done an incredible job raising our two children. Now that the kids are grown, we see this as a great opportunity to spend quality time together. My son and I did a lot of weekend camping in the past, and at first, I thought Karen and I could travel and camp using "rougher" methods. That was a non-starter with her, so I was happily surprised when I discovered teardrop camping. I took her to see another brand of teardrop and she felt confident that the concept will work for her. Oh yeah, and we have the ever-so-popular tow vehicle -- a 2014 Subaru Outback.

I'll certainly have more questions for other areas of the forum.

With warm regards,
Karen and Glenn (kogo)
 
Congratulations from one sight unseen buyer to another. The wait can be trying but we are in the final stages looking to pick up July/August. Gives you ample time to decide options and accessories.

Congratulations, Karen and Glenn. Its good you are getting an early start. I wish I had known about CampInn when I retired.I bought a tractor instead. I have really enjoyed the tractor and all it can do but I am turning tractor chores over to my Son In Law and enjoying my new trailer. During the wait I even changed my order to the 560. I had originally ordered the 550.
You are going to love your new camper. It is amazing how well designed well built it is.
 
My husband, Alan, was soakin' in the bathtub when I came in to the room to tell him I done bought us a camper....
Now he takes quick showers so I can't "shop" so much online!

Hope the wait goes by fast.
Karen will love her 2nd kitchen.
 
Congratulations, Karen and Glenn! You will love your Camp-Inn teardrop, and the good folks who make it, and the good folks on this forum.

Our situation is similar to yours, though we're ten years older! We're counting on our teardrop to make traveling and outdoor time more comfortable - so far, so good. Leaving Monday for a week on Lake Superior's North Shore. Night temps in the 40s, but we'll be cozy. With quick hot coffee from the galley!

Happy travels,
Judy

Any truth to the rumor that Alan was a mail-order husband and you selected him sight unseen?
 
Reminds me of the story about the farm lady that was widowed. After a while she puts an ad in the paper that reads: Husband wanted. Have farm and tractor.

The reply she gets reads: Interested in the offer. Please send picture of tractor.
 
Karen and Glen: When you get your trailer I would love to meet you to see the CI. I live in Dallas and work in Sandy Springs. As far as I can tell we are the only two in the ATL and I have not placed my order yet. I don't believe seeing one will alter my perception but will only make me more anxious. Good luck and I will be waiting along with you. Looking forward to meeting you in the future.
 
ThomasDudek,

Sure, let's meet around the CI when the time comes, but we are now looking at taking delivery in Spring of 2015. Just stay tuned to this forum. Also, I've seen another ATL based duo on this forum, I just can't remember who they are.

Karen and Glenn--

Congratulations -- exciting isn't it? My husband and I are awaiting our contract for a 550 Ultra. We did have the opportunity to see a 560 Ultra "in person" and it was beautifully crafted. However, we like the true teardrop shape and coziness of the 550. We're getting our's in April as I will then join my husband in retirement and we'll be fulltimers! Wishing you lots of happiness and adventures in your teardrop!
