We have now booked our trip from Australia to pick up our Airstream and do a bit of a road trip ending up at this great event! So we will be newbie Airstreamers and first time attendees at this event... Words cannot explain how excited we are and looking forward to meeting you all!!!

Darren, Sam and Grace.
Newbie Aussie Airstreamers...

How delightful! I'm looking forward to meeting you, Darren, Sam, and Grace and any charming or absurd talents you may care to share. We will be new to this group too.

Heck, just bring your didgeridoo and join the jam sessions.

Seriously, welcome to the states and to the Airstream family.

Well two things are official....

First - we got our attendance confirmation from Ken (thanks Ken)
Second - We just got back from picking up our (new to us) 28' Flying Cloud in Seattle . Got it back to Canada (4500 km later) and never broke anything. (thank goodness)

Looking forward to seeing you all in October.

Cheers
Doug

Looks like you were having a great time downunder weirdstuff!

And Pahaska, I'll have to see if I can fit a didgeridoo in the suitcase - could be fun!

Thanks Weirdstuff and Jenniflow for the warm welcome and Doug, we're very jealous - wish we were picking ours up now...

Sure hope we get our confirmation in this week on the rally, I am watching the mail very close. Really hoping we wasn't to late.

Ken J · 04-28-2014, 02:36 PM

Sorry to say it will be next week before I get any confirmations out as this week as I'm busy with the Vintage Trailer Academy this week - yay ! We will be taking apart and putting together Airstreams :-)

stream lady · 04-28-2014, 04:29 PM

Thanks Ken, I'll now know to watch the mail next week

Hi Monah! Charlie and I are going too and our friends here in Salem, Mark and Judy Barrall are bringing their trailer too! We are leaving Sept. 16th and fishing our way down to the rally fishing through Wyoming, Utah, Colorado and N.M. We are so excited to go and it will be fun to see some familiar Oregon faces too!

Now that sounds like fun! I'm assuming your Fly Fishing your way south?

cptfish · 05-08-2014, 09:25 PM

Yes, we hope to do some smaller stream fly fishing on Greys River in WY and in southwest CO. Since we would be passing near the Green River below Flaming Gorge Reservoir in UT and the San Juan River in NM we couldnt pass these up as we are never sure when we would get back that way again.

Arcticfox · 05-08-2014, 09:34 PM

Hi cptfish:

Thanks for the info on locations... I think they might be a bit off our path coming down from central Canada, but one never knows. Now I l have to remember to pack my gear...

Cheers
Doug

Well I still haven't heard if we are able to go this year, hope its not to much longer till we here something. My husband keeps asking me if we got any mail on the rally yet. { not yet } I have to tell him. Maybe this week.

Ken J · 05-10-2014, 06:48 PM

I have confirmed receipt of all reservations - so the confirmation is either in your spam box or I have not received your reservation - I have confirmed either attendence or wait list

stream lady · 05-11-2014, 07:14 AM

Thanks Kin for the response but I had mailed it out on April 20 and check my spam and junk mail and have nothing, so guess its lost and by now it would be to late. I had used the coupon in blue Beret and sent it to that address. I had sent a check #5614 so if you haven't received it by now I might need to stop payment on it.
Thanks Sarah

Ken J · 05-11-2014, 07:25 AM

Send me a pm with your last name and ill check on Monday when I get to my office

Landshark · 05-22-2014, 01:53 PM

Ken, how long is the wait list?

Thanks!

Vivian

Ken J · 05-22-2014, 02:55 PM

It stands at 6 right now - I expect those and more to get in - I'm always surprised at the number of cancellations - lots of various reasons -

Landshark · 05-28-2014, 09:55 AM

What is the procedure for getting on the wait list? Do we send a check and for how much? If for the full amount, do we get that or anything back if we never make it off the wait list?

Sorry for all the questions!
