We took the easy route, Airstreams with wings, to visit Alaska.
Once we landed in Anchorage and taxied to the terminal, Catstream my co-pilot, shouted out in exitement: "Look, I see polar bear." Half of the passengers started laughing and looked with pity at that fresh tourist, about to be unleashed upon the wilderness.
Little did they know that Polar Bear was Curtis's 1979 Airstream Motorhome, driving into the parking lot of the Airport.
Curtis and I met at this very forum, when he was preparing to drive his newly acquired Airstream from Seattle to Anchorage.
Upon his safe arrival in Anchorage, we discovered that we have sequential Airstream serial numbers.
The last 4 digits are 5142 and 5143.
That was a good enough reason for me to plan a visit. Curtis and his family were kind enough let us stay in the Airstream at the Anchorage RV Park for the duration of our visit.
And what a visit it was. Alaska is truly the last frontier. Friendly people and overwhelmingly beautiful scenery!
