++Sl@yer Posted May 12, 2014 Share Posted May 12, 2014 I am sure that many of you like to camp. I have been going camping since I was a little boy. Our family used to camp in lake Champlain in New York when we lived in Chateauguay, Quebec. My wife of almost 23 years and I used to tent it until about 3 years ago. I was picking up Garbage in the lanes of Calgary, Alberta when I happened upon a man cleaning out a 1978 Bonair 1100 tent trailer. I pulled up a jokingly asked if he was going to package that properly for pickup. We laughed and he asked if I was interested in buying it. I asked how much? He says a hundred bucks, needs a little work with the corners though. I was like what????? I explained I had just helped my Brother in outlaw with his tent trailer not 2 weeks earlier, I know how and have the tools to do this. I'll be back right after work. This thing was bad, only 1 of the four corners worked and after screwing around with it for a few days steady, I managed to get it working. I decided to call this "The Rolling Turd" here it is: Worked for what we needed for then, we just got this and this weekend is going to be the maiden voyage. Its a 2009 Spree KZ210, the older couple that owned it used it maybe 2 times a year. I wanted to call it "The Killing Spree". My wife isn't too keen on that. I have friends in the sign industry, as you can tell by the last trailer. Maybe this could be called "The Camping Spree". Once I get the graphics done I'll post a finished picture here. Why don't you all show me your homes away from homes. Maybe share a funny story about a trip you may have taken. Let's talk camping. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

parrot Posted May 13, 2014 Share Posted May 13, 2014 My parents have a 5th wheel, and they are on a 30 day trip through the Western US. I'd love to have something similar, but I'd want something bigger to fit all 6 of us into. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
