Hope everyone is well and getting ready to escape the heat and travel! We want to share a photo of our new 20' R-pod travel trailer. So far, we are happy and learning more about her each day! Favorite things are an outdoor shower, bathroom, slide-out, and a nice size kitchen area! And our...

On this past Saturday, our sweet 550 Special "Katie" transitioned from us to her new family. The changeover was made a little bit easier knowing a great family was taking her out for a 2 week trip today! The 2 kids were so excited, but Mom was even more so! We, of course, have had more than...

SOLD!!! We are making a move to a 20'camping trailer, which means our wonderful 550 "Special" teardrop is up for sale! Working closely with Cary, we created a perfect, easy to maintain teardrop that was purchased directly from CI in April 2015. Condition: excellent. Approximate mileage is...

Hope y'all had a great weekend and didn't get rained on too much. We are sorry to have missed the fun. Thanks for handling the arrangements. How's Bobba Fett??

Dear Friends, One year ago today, we picked up our 550 Special in Necedah and launched our full-time Teardropping life adventure! It has been an amazing year of travel and meeting wonderful people along the way. We have learned a lot, changed things around, and discarded much, in our year...

We have Renogy 100 watt solar panels and are on our 6th day camping in a sunny clearing. We have the Camp-Inn installed 12v solar connection. The sun feeds our 12v AGM battery. We've noticed that our refrigerator has stopped working. Our on board solar controller reads "yellow". It doesn't...

In El Paso, this park is situated among the mountains and the scenery is so beautiful! The RV area is a small loop with only five spots! Saturday night all five spots were taken, Sunday night only two of us were here, and tonight it is just us! The tent area and day use area are far...

I know many of you travel and camp with your dogs. Does anyone do so with a cat? Sounds absurd, I know! Just wondering!

Doug and Amber and I briefly talked about setting up a meet up/camp out for those of us in Texas! Is there any interest in doing this, either later this year, or next year? It would be fun to get together! What do you all think? Thanks!

We're just celebrating five months full-timing! Over 7,000 miles through a whole bunch of states! It's been really amazing. Seen some wonderful places and have met terrific people. Boondocking often in beautiful places. Couldn't be happier! Our teardrop, Katie, has handled beautifully...

Altough I have updated our profile and signature, when I submit I am told my email address doesn't match the confirming email address. I have tried many times and when I preview all looks good. But upon submitting, I get that message. Help!

Yesterday was great! We picked up our teardrop "Katie", number 714, and met Craig and Cary and others who are part of the camp-inn family! I wish I had the right word to describe it all. We are so happy and thrilled with this entire experience! Cary is awesome as was the full day...

We have the SUV package for our 550 Special that we are picking up on April 1. Has anyone purchased and used tire chains on their teardrop? We'd welcome your comments and recommendations. Thanks!

Without a shout box this was my outlet for wishing you all the best in 2015!

Has anyone heard of or used the Aero-flo vent cover on their TD or RD (if you don't have the rain-sensing version of the fan)? We'd appreciate your thoughts on this brand or any other. Thanks! And Merry Christmas!

Craig sent our first photos of our teardrop being built! This trailer, K.T., will be our new full-time home! Are we excited?! You betcha! Can't believe it is happening!

Hi, If you're interested, I have a very new blog on blogspot that you are invited to follow. It is telling the story of how we found a CI teardrop and will document our life on the road, a diary of sorts. http://birderdiane526.blogspot.com/ Hopefully this link will take you to "Teardropping...

Anyone familiar with S. Dakota? Any sense if it would be a good state in which to establish residency? Since we'll be going full-time we need to obtain residency somewhere and SD looks promising. Also considering TX and FL.

Hi, We are going back and forth between needing/wanting a furnace -v- AC! We have the furnace on order, but not the AC. Has anybody used a small portable ceramic heater at all with success in cold weather? We think we are leaning towards using one of these -v- the furnace. And since we...

Hi! Does anyone use their side tent to take showers? Just wondering as I don't believe the floor would drain accumulated water. Any thoughts related to this? Thanks! Diane
