Thanks for your great suggestions...unfortunately (or fortunately!) I am 97% done with stripping the wood in Birdy. I'm down to the metal...have you ever tried the Silent Stripper on metal? I'm actually halfway done with it...but at the moment, very frustrated. The Napier Stripper I bought & just tested tonight, isn't all it's cracked up to be. Seems ike the Citristrip worked better...but I have to wait until morning to really tell, it got too dark tonight.
Anyways...welcome to the forums!!! Have fun with your Argosy ~

Shari,
Thanks so much for welcoming me to the group. Hopefully by next weekend I'll be posting a photo of our vintage aluminum baby. We're very excited. All we have left to do is pay

, insure

and register

.
I would love to have some suggestions regarding insurance. I have vintage auto insurance from State Farm and need to call my agent to find out if similar coverage is available for vintage trailers. I should start a new threat and ask for advice on this topic. And advice on joining clubs and joining campground associations or whatever they are called. I won't go on and on here. Do you think I should start a new thread with this info and get some advice? Maybe the info is in some old discussions. It would be fun for me to have a new one though!
I see you are from CO. I love your state. Camped there in a tent, near a stream in .... I think it was Rocky Mountain State Park. Recall the calming flow of the stream and the pattering sound the aspen leaves made in the breeze. And that was 15 years ago! Been so many places in a tent out of the back of a honda accord. Cadillac ranch, Car Henge, TX Grand Canyon near Amarillo, Nebraska, Wyoming, Missouri, Raton, New Mexico, Arizona -- love Sedona. And lots more. Come a long way from tenting with an eggcrate style foam to cushion us from the hard desert sand. Owned a lux condo and spent a lot of time sleeping in Vermont being lazy. Decided our son should see the country, not spend his childhood weekends and vacations watching his parents nap on a sofa in a lux condo in the green mountains. lol. Gonna pack our little guy into the family truckster and take a look around.

Aluminum Life is beginning...and a whole new experience for our son. So cool.
Well, I guess I will paste this into a new thread. I don't want to Hijack yours Shari.

Gonna work on my signature and all that other profile stuff too.
So much fun...can't wait for the rubber to hit the road. Just chatting about it is fun.
Thanks for your support.
Allie
