July Photo Contest

Kicking this contest off on July Fourth inspires this month's theme:

"Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness."

Let's see your pictures illustrating this key phrase from the Declaration of Independence.

Maybe it is an Airstream Fourth of July memory. Maybe it's a picture of something you hold dear as an citizen of America or other country. Maybe it is your child discovering his or her own inalienable rights in or around an Airstream. Or maybe it is just you pursuing something that brings you happiness via your Airstream.

The image must include all or part of the interior or exterior of an Airstream.

The usual Air Forums photo contest rules apply – in particular, you must own the rights of the image.

Good luck!
Joe

Red White and Blue on the Oregon Trail in Guernsey, WY. To the left is Register Rock and off to the west about 1/2 mile are the Oregon Ruts where the wagon wheels cut through the rocks. The history of those that sacrificed on the search and trek into the west right there in front of you.

Thankful for those who fought to allow me to enjoy this weekend with my two boys (one in the window), my wife, our two dogs and in our new-to-us 71 Trade Wind.

I have a number of historical flags of the USA. I'm sure you recognize the 'Star Spangled Banner', the 15 star flag that inspired our national anthem. The one that isn't displayed clearly I believe is the Betsy Ross flag. The center flag is the 48 star flag that was given to my mom when she became a nationalized citizen in 1949. Note that the front license plate is a flag.

May I ask where that photo was taken? The property and fencing look beautiful - is that your land?
Best,

This is a challenge to Canadians. We are too busy complaining about the weather and taxes to think about stuff like that.

I'm not sure how well it fits the theme, but was taken yesterday in Our home base in Taos while imagining our next outing... - Certainly "the pursuit of happiness applies"

The winner of the July Photo contest is Thinair for the image below. The rainbow in the distance seems to be calling the traveler to find the next great place in their pursuit of happiness, and to use the Airstream and the freedom it brings to do so. Congratulations Thinair, and thanks to everyone who submitted such great photos this month.

Thinair, you now have the honor of hosting the August contest.

Best regards, Joe

The photo was taken at the Jackson Rancheria Casino RV Park, California. The Northern California Airstreamers hold their fall rally there each October. This photo was taken about 3 years ago. We will be there, same camp site, this October.
