I got her last year from Cambridge Ohio. Hello, Land-O-Lakes unit.

Nice patch, adds great charm / character to your rig.

Been shot with an arrow...
Reminds me of the one legged guy on the train who would only permit one question

Was the Arrow a Hensley Arrow ?

Groan, Jim....

Nice patch, though I wonder who would bother to shoot at trailers with a bow and arrow...

Jim Clark · 04-29-2008, 10:21 PM

I heard that groan here in New Orleans.

A drunk would come to mind.

Nice repair; looks really cool.

Why Jim, them's fighting words!

Well, I'm not the one living off "Bourbon Street!"

We just got back late Sunday. We had a great time--there were too many high points from our visit to mention. We'll be back, hopefully with trailer in tow!

The way some deer hunters shoot around here, it's no big surprise. We get all kinds. Some really interesting individuals come to Cambridge to hunt. Some even come here to buy Airstreams.

Mine was shot up when I got it as well, so we named her Shotgun! It DOES add character!

wow... we have pheasants round here. I hope they don't get clumsy as I can appreciate that kinda character in someone elses trailer but I would be mortified if it happened to mine

Interesting texture though

I looked at a '54 Cruiser here in Austin about a month ago that had some damage from a shotgun blast. A PO said that it was sitting out on a ridge in Colorado, and somebody just couldn't resist.

Note to self, don't leave Airstream sitting out on ridges in the Wild West.

But I gotta say that being shot with an arrow seems much more bizarre.
