I was a bit concerned as well given that I had not winterized so went to the storage unit and put a small space heater to action in hopes it would keep a deep freeze from happening. Checked things out yesterday and all looks well.

I wondered about the fate of all the Airstreamers, Vanlifers, and other people who typically congregate on Padre at this time of year, because the entirety of Texas went solidly below zero, including Brownsville. That virtually never happens.

2017 AI Lounge

Finally had a chance to break in 'AIRPLAY' this weekend. Annie and I spent the weekend in Thornehill Broome Beach and have a few photos to post. We are hoping to meet a few other AI owners in the Los Angeles / Thousand Oaks area whom enjoy long weekends in the wine country or at a race track - if you fit this descriptions and want some travel friends, please IM me.....

Chaparral (Chappy)

Here's Chappy at Homolovi State Park Arizona. We picked him up in Las Vegas and had a three day break-in trip back to Dallas.

Sabre-Dog IV is home

My, new to me, Airstream coach came home for the first time last evening in the rain.

This is my 4th Airstream; the first 3 were trailers, 22,25,and 28. The name came about because the riveted aluminum reminded me of the F-86D Sabres I flew some 60 years ago. The planes were universally known as "Sabre-Dogs." I already ordered 2" high red vinyl lettering with the name to go on the door. It will be also known as the "Great Silver Whale."

Spent the day today trying to cram in even a fraction of what came out of the 28. I'll have plenty for the thrift store.

Welcome to the Interstate World. Have always enjoyed your write-ups of the wonderful modifications you made. Look forward to your interpretation of the new rig.

On a similar theme as Pahaska, this appeared on Insta yesterday. Looks like we'll have more Interstate bloggers, although I don't know if they are existing Air Forums users. Quote from their explanation as to why they traded: "If we want it ALL, (and to clarify, we do), we just can’t be 54′ long."

I traded because at 84-years of age, the trailer was becoming more of a chore than a pleasure. The 28 was getting quite long in the tooth and needing a lot of maintenance I was no longer able to easily perform.

I had decided to sell the 28 this spring. Now, I see me driving the coach for a few more years and attending rallies with my Airstream friends.

Do you reckon I got my money's worth on that parks pass??


Perhaps this is a good pic to show those OPs who are on the fence about whether or not they should take the plunge and buy an Interstate. Is there any possible way that I could have done this amount of state park camping if I did NOT own one?

This is just Texas state parks, excluding other local parks, out-of-state locations, boondocks, and international locations (Canada). And my husband and I are both employed people, not retired, so our traveling time is limited.

Virginia International Raceway (VIR) this weekend at a "racingforheroes.org" event. Great time driving fast cars and shooting fast guns with fellow vets and families.

My I-phone did the same thing with the last photos I attached, but when I refreshed the post they were only there once. Must be a new software "feature"
