Congrats Robert!

It's Thursday and I still like my A/S because,

The last time I polished her was October of 06, and although she's parked out in the weather year round, she still looks great!
Although she does need a wash...

Wash her again and you may find out that she needs polishing again.

We are in a severe drought here in North Georgia so my Airstream is in a severe need of a wash. Guess that gives me an excuse for why it hasn't been done all summer/fall and probably won't get done before spring unless I find time to get it done at a truck stop en route on our next camping trip in December.

But, dirty or clean, I still like my Airstream!!!

...because she looks so Christmasy with the lighted wreath on her door. We don't go all out for decorating, but the wreath adds just the right note. She likes it so much, she won't let me turn off her holiday lights. I plugged them in on the outside outlet to the left of the door to test them out, and now I cannot get the plug out of the socket-argh! So she'll look pretty day and night until the lights burn out--maybe by Valentines Day. My plan was to attach a timer, but hey... ~G

Because in three short weeks I'll be burning my calendar and taking off my watch. I'm retiring, and my last day will be 12/21!! What a Christmas present. Now I'll be able to hook up and leave whenever the fancy strikes me. Too bad the DW has 8 years to go. Not too bad though, she's getting a well deserved sabatical next semester, and gets an expense paid trip to China.

Here's to freedom.

I like my Airstream because

It's Thursday and I like my Airstream because she reminds me (constantly) to get out more. Help! I'm trapped in my house and can't get out! Seven more weeks of disposing (in all manners) of house stuff and we close on the sticks and bricks and are purely and solely Airstreaming. Woohoo!

Robert, Happy Birthday and Happy new Retirement!

Tom, two more weeks and you get great hours, love your boss, and everything is pretty much up to you. We are three months and two days into it and LOVE IT.

It's Thursday and I like my Airstream so much I bought her a new tow vehicle! Tomorrow I take delivery of a 2008 F-250 PSD Lariat crew cab with all the bells and whistles. Can't wait to take her on her first trip in two weeks.

Congratulations. A nice early Christmas gift for the Airstream (and you). There's nothing like a new TV to make the view on a trip that much nicer.

Just remember your Manuel says to drive 500 miles before hooking up a trailer. Or at least the manuel in my '07 did.

Happy and safe trails...

It's supposed to be in the upper 60's and low 70's this weekend and the next week so I'll probably put that many miles on it within the next week just riding around with the sun roof open!

Thursday already? Gee, we were just outside sitting in our Coleman camp chairs (the ones with a handy adult beverage holder built in the arm). Kris finished 1/3 of the 2nd coat of POR15 on the chassis and I'd gotten the tires and shocks off one side of the trailer. We were discussing the changes to the original bath layout we want to make and the motif of the finished cabinetry...I was thinking Stickley, she's leaning toward Post Modern. Ah, the absolute pleasure of looking at an aluminum shell suspended above a naked frame! New technologies combined with the time-honored look of the Airstream; You just can't ask for a better way to spend those thinking moments on this mortal coil.

In the meantime, the Silver Tuna sits... patiently awaiting a rebirth into whatever configuration its owners desire. I like my Airstream because it allows the genies to redesign the bottle.

thursday greeting all!

it's thursday and i like my airstream because...

she refuses to acknowledge the weather...

"what ice, let's go" was the message in her voice today.

yes, she's a talking trailer, not a factory option but common with some models and years

cheers

Thursday again already?

I cannot believe it's already Thurs again . . .

and I love my Airstream because she sits at ready week after week although we cannot take her anywhere for six more weeks.

She's ready when we are! We can hardly wait -- eight more rooms of furniture (oh yeah, that's all the rooms) and less than a hundred boxes of stuff (we haven't packed those boxes yet) and we are free of this sticks & bricks existence.

Oh my gosh, I have that option too! Right now I need to find the volume control, it's hard to hear anything else. "Take me out the road is wating for us!". Can't wait for spring.

Merry Christmas

Brevard is cold

Its Thurs and I love my Airstream because she is very ably guarding Snow White until we find a longer term parking place for our African Argosy.

Sherry -- yeah we can hear the yelling too. We're getting close to going. We've sold over 1/3 of the furniture and are taking calls daily for the remainder. At this rate we'll be sleeping on the floor or moving into our Airstream in two weeks. We're in Charlotte, a teeny bit warmer than Brevard. Hang in there,

Jim

Because this time next week we'll be braving the brutal California winter in Slab City.

The day after Christmas we'll visit Slab City on our way to the FCU New Years Eve party at Mt. Picachu.

Because she is packed and ready to roll for our 5 day Christmas camping trip that starts tomorrow. Can't wait to deck her out in holiday lights and get a little lit myself. Merry Christmas to all!
