Blame it on Uwe that I heard about this!

Oh, and I'll eat whatever I'm told to.

Hi Ingrid!

It's about time you chimed in. We were wondering where you were.

As to your question, Lake San Antonio Resort has cute cabins on the lake. Here is their web site http://www.lakesanantonioresort.com/lodging.htm

I think that would be your best bet as the resort is near the campground. Renting a RV would be pretty pricey, I think for a weekend. Anyway, glad you will be there!

Sorry to hear you can't make it Tinsel. But sounds like an exciting time to be moving to a new house. Can you take your name off the rally list on the calendar? Just click on the link in my signature and then click on "I will no longer be attending this event" at the bottom of the list and your name will be removed. I would do it for you but I can't.

Hope to see you and Mickey next time!

We!'re in ! Bringing the '57 Flying Cloud this time (sold the '67 Safari) plus the usual 'Singing Bouvier Douet".
Looking forward to a great rally.
FYI everybody- we will probably be shooting footage of everything with our new pro HDDV camera for possible documentary use on the growing Airstreamomania, so if you want to look good- get polishing!!!

Now that I finally read through this thread I noticed that TWO people wondered where I am...nice to be missed!

The cabins at Lake San Antonio are all available!! I am going to reserve one and guess what...the gal taking reservations has a 60's vintage Airstream! I told her to come on by. I don't think she knows about this site. She didn't know about the rally.

I'll be bringing my 7 year old she'll be delighted to have kids to play with.

And I'll bring food. Dessert? Brownies? Drinks?

I'm ready for my close-up Mr Demille!

Glad to see you joining up.

Hi Big Dee -

You can sign us up for a big pot of Texas Chili with Chocolate. It's always a crowd pleaser at our family functions and it goes great with red wine!

We are really looking forward to the rally. We've been working hard on the 'stream so she'll look her best (or at least better than she's looked in the last 20 years .)

Question: Is there a ice facilty close-by? Unfortunately we don't have a portable beer cellar in our Tradewind and will need to bring the mega ice chest.

Karin,

There is a little store down by one of the waterfront campgrounds, near the Marina. Perhaps someone could call ahead and make sure that it is open in October, and whether or not it is stocking plenty of ice.
Otherwise, it might be a long drive into town.
Ok, I called this number 1-805-472-2311, and the very kind lady confirmed that the store is open year round, usually very well stocked, and does carry lots of ice for the camping and boating crowds. Yay.

Vielleicht am Freitag Abend haben wir Oktoberfest.. Bier und Prezelen und (hoffentlich..) Weisswurst... Die Deutsche-sprecher wird (nach a paar bieren..) bier-trinken songen gebringen...

John McG

p.s. Rough translation: bring German beer and snacks for Friday eve party with perhaps singing of traditional German songs...
