Ken: It's tempting! We had such a great time in '08! We've got a commitment on the east coast and are trying to see if we can get back in time with the "Big Guy" to switch into something silver.... Let me know how the party is filling up!

Susan and Jim - just bring a big ol pot and and wooden spoon for the snipes - - - -

Lynda - for you we ALWAYS have room!!!

You don't have to twist our arms! OK, sign us up. The proverbial check is in the mail....only caveat being is if we can't return from the east coast in enough time to slip into something silver, can we bring the behemoth, Gus, once again? Remember, we have a pretty nice size generator if needed!

ps - we'd really like to bring something silver as we have another new silver toy...the same as jim & susan's from morrison, co!! Susan: Hope to meet you in Albq!

You can come in anything you have - you are an Airstreamer, last time I looked at Gus, I saw an Airstream..

Lynda,

It will be nice to meet you also!! I still can't believe we found #72 right in Colorado after our disappointing trip to CA to buy #30.

We are leaving for a 2 week trip this AM to Tucson. We are both excited & a little nervous. We have decided to call our #72 Sylvia.

Safe travels to you, Jim & Sylvia...perfect name!!

Update!

We have about 36 trailers signed up at this point! We will have a GREAT time again this year -

I've e-mailed everyone who has sent me a deposit or full payment - so if you did not get an e-mail from me, it means I messed up your e-mail address or I've not received your deposit...

There is still a little time to join us - so PM me if you would like to join us!!

The organizing committee is getting organized (hmm may need to put a committee together to organize the organizing committee

) and we will start planning for another great rally!!

Wish we could be there this year but will be somewhere between Vermont and Tennessee when your rally rolls around . And I had the perfect outfit for a trailer trash contest this year - a new sequined thong.

Ken J · 06-17-2009, 05:11 PM

Ah thats just a slight detour....

OK, AgSag....information overload!! We'll miss you, Beth & Bear. Enjoy your travels on the east coast!

Steve & Faith... Hey! Might just have to take you up on that! Gotta figure out which route we're gonna take up...

There should be several of us spending the night before (Thursday) at the KOA in Grants, NM. We will then leave sometime Friday morning and caravan to the meeting point around noon on Friday. The KOA in Grants is a great overnight stop and the owners are terrific hosts.

Jan and I will be traveling to Grants by way of Flagstaff on Thursday and will be stopping at Little America in Flagstaff to meet up with any others going that way.

Ken:
We are also rookies and this will be our first rally. Where do send the money?

I called and reserved space at Enchanted Trails for Thur. Oct. 1 so as to meet up with the 4CU Balloonies to caravan into the festival/rally on the 2nd.

They will put us streamers together in the same area. Seems like the perfect location to overnight if we are all going to leave from Camping World next door. Very nice people. They do not require an advance deposit. Give them a call and book your space as they said activity is picking up.

Vicki - who owns the campground - is a good friend of mine - she is VERY accomodating to us Airstream folks - and that is because she knows we are very good folks!!

Each spring she lets us pretty much take over the campground with our restoration rally - its a great time where we put up a big tent and tear into Airstreams showing all kinds of rebuilding skills.

Vicki and I (and some others) are also planning a Rt 66 New Mexico Motor Tour - it will be a really great trip across New Mexico which will include trailers (old and new) - lots of old cars - motorcycles etc - lots of historic Rt 66 stuff - should be a blast - watch for that in July 2010
