My back door bird and its little toad
Here's a picture of my bird from the back and as you can see it's got
its toad in tow. I'm trying to think of a way to use that back door- maybe a deck? or something like that? Jon http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y4/1942...aru008.jpg Jon Lechich 1978 Wanderlodge Bremerton Washington |

My back door bird and its little toad
-Jon, At an RV show the other day, we toured a bunch of trailers &
motorhomes that had back doors like yours. Their doors folded down to be used as a patio. They had cool awnings that formed a solid square tent like roof & netting rolled down to cover each side. One of these 'patios' had foldable bars that formed a rail around the edge for safety. (they un-latched and swung down to fold flat against the floor/door when closed).I think it would be easy & cool to adapt yours for this purpose. Much more living space, bug free, great spot for table & chairs. Late night card game?

those rear door type. I will go on the internet tonight and maybe I can come up with company and get some idea's. Thanks Jon tracyt3 a bunch of trailers & motorhomes that had back doors like yours.

My back door bird and its little toad
OK Jon,
I am picturing the back of a rail car with a nice porch, wrought iron railing and overhang to keep off the weather. Then you could rent out the coach to politicians. Or move the hinges to the base of the door and you could use it as a ramp to go back and get stuff out of the car while you are traveling. 8-). Although on mine, a back door would look like a loft door on a barn to get over the engine. I am really envious. With a herd of dogs, a back door could lead to the portable kennels and keep them from tracking thru the whole coach. The other day going westbound on the Ohio Turnpike, I saw a converted pusher schoolie (or bookmobile) with a new cream paint job and "Charter" painted over the windshield. Looked like a really nice unit and a heck of a step up from a rented limo.

Very interesting that you would mention a pack of dogs! This is the reason for
the backdoor on the Rebel Bird. The original owners were a couple who raised and showed Great Dane's around the Southwest and California. At one time there was a kennel in the back but now its been converted back to a bedroom. I have attached a picture of the lady who originally owned my bird and her great big dog.
