The Official Thread for Busy People

[HeyCori]

So how would everyone like a sticky to announce when they're going to be busy for a few days?

And on that note, I?m going to be busy till about Sunday. The in-laws are in town for camping.

First nobody is allowed to be busy...lol

We could make a thread but I am worried I might miss something that gets berried. I like it better if you all just start a new thread.

O-o camping sounds awesome I wish I could go.

My wife and I have went there a couple of times. My neighbor inherited a real nice Coleman popup trailer when his parents retired and moved to Florida. He didn't like camping so I rented it from him a couple of times and took it to Indiana Beach. It was one of their big popup trailers, I had to get a class 5 hitch on my truck to tow it. Then he let his two boys, 6 & 7 years old use it one summer as a playhouse and they totally destroyed it, and I mean destroyed it.

I don't know anything about trailer hitches. What does class 5 mean?

Most trucks have a class 1 trailer hitch on their bumper that's good to 2000lbs a class 5 hitch is good to 18000lbs: Trailer Hitch Classes Review | etrailer.com

It was the biggest one they made. It had air conditioning, a toilet, a shower, a refrigerator, an awning,,,etc...but his two boys totally destroyed it one summer.

Those have to be some boys! I can't imagine kids that young totally destroying a trailer like that.

I am saying his boys because he opened it for his two boys to use as a playhouse, but there were probably other neighborhood kids in there with them destroying it.

That to bad about the trailer. Needing a class 5 hitch for a pop up trailer kind of defeats the purpose of getting a pop up. I want a new camping trailer some day. I want a pup up because they are usually easier to pull. I have had 2 different ones in the past. Right now I am using a 35 foot pull behind its a pain to pull. Don't get me wrong its a nice trailer j just hate pulling it around.

Amazingly I've never been to Indiana Beach, lol. We're camping in this little spot slightly outside of Indiana in Michigan. They have this little pop up trailer and a few tints along a small bond.

Amazing how a thread goes from "can we have stickies?" to "kids destroying trailors"
