This was a scary sight for a first timer. She will get on the road again in the next year or so.

The backing-up class A was able to miss the overhead branch in his site. We were better target.

GREAT thread idea - I love it! Sadly I have nothing to contribute - thank goodness, although I truly admire the artisans amongst us.

I'll wait for the "best photos of you greeting your Airstream as it rolls off the factory line and its' already been through its' punch list while you are dipping your appetizers in Gray Poupon" monthly photo contest.

Actually, I won't have anything to contribute to that thread, either! I'm sure my ship will sail...

Exactly! Maybe I will think twice before I whine about the little things I have had to do. I love these contests and never thought I would be happy NOT to have an entry. But I sure am!

Ooooh - and ya gotta remove the insulation to get rid of the smell .... and that means all those rivits that hold the inside skin in must be drilled (seems like there are at least 1,000,000 of them).

I don't miss that part, because the heads of the rivits seem to get stuck on the drill bit .... I hate the bloody and tender finger part ...
