Seven year itch scratched!

My wife and I finally gave in to our airstream itch and scratched. We are newbies who've been wanting an airstream for almost a decade. When our fourth kid arrived (7, 5, 3 and 8 months) and we realized that we weren't going to be "fly to hawaii" people, we embraced our inner "trailer persons" and joined the throws ... and we went for it. We've owned our 25' International Ocean Breeze/Quiksilver for two weeks and have been out 4 times. We are in LOVE.

Not only will this be great for our family, but I also am a photographer and video podcaster and I've just found my mobile studio to travel the country and live it up in style. When we're "home", we live in Costa Mesa, California.

Thanks for making us feel so at home in such an amazing community as this!

Congratulations, on a great decision. My wife and I saved for over five years. We knew exactly what we wanted the entire time, and it never deviated.
No regrets, and it just gets better.

Welcome to the AS world. Sounds as though you have started hard out of the gate. It only gets better.

Welcome aboard. We'll have to have a SoCal Rally to celebrate.
