Since leaving Texas we have seen more Airstreams on the road. There are 5 Airstreams parked in yards on the road that enters the Flatiron County Park at Loveland, CO. When we arrive here 2 days ago there was an Airstream in the park but it left yesterday. None of the above AS' s had numbers.

Sorry I did not know you were in the area when we were there a few days ago. We are in Iowa tonight at a wonderful state park just outside of Red Oak.

I always stop in the I-80 Truck Stop whenever I pass that way. Definitely worth it. Great assortment of truck lighting products in the store and delicious home baked pies in the restaurant. Bill Moon will thank you from above.

Glad you are enjoying your travels. My husband talked to you at the campground in Gallup NM......we were in the other Airstream. He said to tell you that you still need to add Alabama to your "places visited" map. Safe travels.......

Thanks Fred, it was great seeing you at the rally.
Yes, we need to get the Bama decal on map but it is not going to happen this trip.

Speaking of Luke, we are at his place now. He was gracious to give us a place to stay for a couple of nights. Did not who he was until we arrived. We are enjoying looking at the Vintage Airstreams.

I've been too busy with 2 houses to keep up on threads, so a welcome surprise that you are one the road again. Let us know if you are coming through western Colorado—we have plenty of space in Crawford (much less in Grand Junction, but maybe it is possible).
Or, we'll see you are the balloons.

We should be adding another state and a big increase in the Airstream number.

I don't think counting the Airstreams in JC is quite kosher. And if you do, do you count the ones in the factory as half Airstreams, one quarter, etc.?

We'll get there next Thurs. I'm countin' on seein' a passel of 'em.
Pardon the apostrophes (ies?). There's loose talk of gettin' rid of 'em so I'm tryin' to get mine in before they're gone.

High and dry in OK...
Richard and Jan:
We're now staying with Margaret's folks in Gore, OK... 27 days on the road - only 5 states, dozens of Airstreams. Nice front yard parking area here, too!
Headed to CO on Monday.
Below pic taken at Grand Lake of the Cherokee's in NE Oklahoma...
Be safe out there!
