Is that what they meant when they say traveling with kids in tow? Can the 345 be the engine to pull that train?

That's why they call them Michigan Trains. All that aluminum will never get near the legal axle rating. Sounds like a plan Brother Waggin!

Welcome to the Triple Airstream Club! (oh wait, TAC's already been taken).

I guess your 80 feet of Airstreams trumps my puny 78 feet.

Not so fast Joe. After some modification it is actually 81 feet.

Hi All,

My mom made this message center for Grady's birthday. It attatches to the outside of the trailer with suction cups. The black square is chalkboard fabric. I just thought it was really cute and wanted to share.

Now I am going to hang out in Dave and Rhonda's new trailer. I see they added it to their "official" trailer list, so I guess chances are slim that I will get to keep it.

Yes tksbaskets. we are also mostly state park campers and most of the time we are the only silver in them ... oddly enough the oldest trailer as well. But we will be nowhere near either the weekend of this rally. The date was the August one I dont remember which days off hand... Someone will

Just got home from 5 nights at Hartwick Pines State Park in Michigan and we were the only AS there. Lots of folks stopped to talk and admire thought.

I guess the Rally is as full as it will get and we don't have a decision to make this way.

Have fun all - maybe we'll just stay home and work on the Safari instead.

Did you like that campground? We've talked about going there but as I recall there isn't a place to swim.

We will be at Harrisville State Park next week. We will have some AS company part of the week. Our good friends have an Overlander and will join us for part of the week.

Thanks Brother Waggin, I'm on the right side of the dirt and that's enough of a reason for me! Corn is alright, but Happy Hour Tour is way cool.

Joe,

Email Rob Baker... I think he has a spot reserved and won't be able to make it.
