Ohio Turnpike
Spotted a newer Safari (~21 ft) Eastbound on the Ohio Turnpike yesterday morning near Lordstown (215 mile marker). TV was a blue pickup.

Saw two newer Airstreams in Michigan last weekend. The first was at the corner of Highways 66 and 57 on Saturday afternoon. Looked like a 25 footer, pulled by a red pickup. The second was eastbound on I-69 between Flint and Port Huron on Sunday evening. It was a Bambi with Ontario plates.

We are in CO. We are 3.5 hours west of you in Canon City. Unfortunately, we are not headed in your direction or I would stop in and let you get your Dane fix. Drake is particularly good at loving people and I'd would love to meet you.
I forgot that between Raton, NM and Pueblo, CO we saw three A/S last Sat.

Oh too bad it won't work on this trip, but another time hopefully. Every morning I take a walk with my Shiba Inu to pet the neighbors horse. I figure a horse is the closest thing to a Dane fix
Happy travels!

Just pet the horse's muzzle and it's almost as good as scratching a Dane under the chin....

Airstream sightings
While traveling to Springfield, IL, I spotted a late model Airstream of about 23-feet being pullued by a mid-to-late 1980s Lincoln Town Car that was either midnight blue or black. The rig was headed South toward St. Louis, and I just caught a glimpse as I was merging onto Northbound I-55 from Illinois Route 4 heading in the opposite direction toward Springfield, IL.
Kevin
P.S.: Always catches my attention when I see a travel trailer being towed by a large, American car . . . seems so much more natural than pickup trucks . . . . I am afraid that I grew up on a farm and I have no desire to be in a pickup when I am on a vacation to get away from the daily grind . . .so the full-size automobile/travel trailer says elegant getaway to me. . . .

Yesterday (Thursday 4 Aug) we were sitting in the truck at Sonic off US 75 in Oklahoma having a burger and a cherry limeade, and I saw LCurrie pulling in with their Bambi. We had an impromptu mini-caravan the rest of the way to Eureka Springs.

$ 3.63 for gasoline. That just knocks me out. I think we are paying around $ 6.50.
