Hello from Michigan

Hello,

My wife and I are now proud owners of a 2010 International CCD 27FB that we purchased on 7/22/16.

We at one point were going to purchase a new 2016 Flying Cloud 25FB, but it didn't work out. We were lucky to find the 2010 International locally. Bought it and took it home the same day.

We have made our maiden voyage to Madison WI and back, about 900 miles round trip without any real problems.

Airstreams have been in my family since the 50's, my grandparents WBCCI number was 881. They were real active in the organization. My parents owned an AS, but were never involved in WBCCI.

As an 8 year old I was at the Auburn, Washington rally in 1962, and as a teenager Grand Island, NE in 1968.

I have spent time on this site reading and looking at all the invaluable knowledge that the members have and are willing to share. Pretty awesome.

Blair and Patti Warren

We call our AS Memaw and Papa's Roadhouse.

Welcome to the forums, and Airstreaming!

Wow, you saw the WBCCI in the days when the International Rally was really huge! It's not as big as it used to be, but after declining in membership for many years, WBCCI is growing again. If you're interested, the 2017 International Rally is going to be in Escanaba, Michigan. For further information, see http://wbcci.org/

I just read this article. This is copied from it :

Urban Air will be returning to the streets of the “island city” October 1-4. The event will involve a weekend of camping, kayaking, music, food, entertainment and much more.
Which dates are correct?

I think the TVs are parked elsewhere from the trailers. Look for a 22 Sportvwith Ontario plate.

I will look for your Ontario plate. I'm looking forward to meeting a fellow forum member!
Can't wait to see all that aluminum lining the streets.

Thanks for the warm welcome.

Unfortunately won't make Urban Air this year. Maybe Escanaba next summer.

Thanks again....

That is too bad you won't be going to Urban Air.
What is going on in Escanaba next year?
