it's thursday and i like my airstream because........
hi all
a week has passed, so i know you've all been saving up reasons to like your airstream....well me too.
gotta pace myself....don't want to list everything i've thought of at one time...and some have been mentioned already by others...i like that.
the reasons to date are great...and as diverse as the owners....don't be afraid to repeat one, in your own way....if you want to....
it's thursday and i like my airstream because.........
of the way the front sofa functions.....
first off it's pretty darn comfortable as a sofa....not too firm, not too saggy.....just right.
next it's the best sofa bed i've sleep on...firm, soft, no lumps or metal thingies....
and it opens/folds pretty smoothly with a durable mechanical feel...it should last.....
then there is that end storage under the arms, and behind the back.
also the drawers down under come in handy.....and the foot lockers over head hold a lot.
it's the perfect place for guests as long as they dont' mind sharing with the pooch.........
O.K. it's Thursday and I LOVE my Airstream, because....
Yesterday the big brown truck delivered my remote generator switch and hour meter. Since putting Airstream One to work last year with the Generac 40 Quietpac in the belly I've had to get out of the bus and open the generator box to start or stop the genset . This has been a real drag.
But what has been more of a drag is the inability of my local AS dealer to get off their butt and order a part that I was more than willing to pay them to get. I finally gave up and then saw the part I needed in a Northern catalog.
Now the only question is where to mount it?

"I'm not an expert. But I did sleep in an Airstream last night."
With the "Late Model" automotive world going RETRO, we're already there with ours!
We love our Airstream for most of the other reasons stated below but the biggest reason we love ours is how warm and fuzzy we all get when our wonderful Grandchildren camp with us. Now that's the ultimate in our book!
Because it releaves stress when I work on it, I know it is paid for!!!!!!
It never talks back, never leaves it's mark, and is alway's ready for adventure. Plus a nice place to go and have a nice glass of wine and relax.
-because I smile whenever I pull into the driveway and see it waiting there
-because it's fun to pull it down the road and have people wave at us
-because when camping we meet wonderful people who want to talk about it (including a very nice man last summer who felt sorry for us and offered us his tent so we would have the chance to experience tent camping, and he would help us by taking the Safari for a couple of days (um, we said no!))
-because we have a working hot water heater in it now!

This weekend is the Southwest's Tin Can Tourist rally. It's a first for us and it should be alot of fun. I'll take lots of pictures and post some when I get back!

- it's Friday, and I had to walk through a field and down a road to meet my pizza delivery guy, while talking to him on the phone all the time! What else could let me live like this?
