New years day! Big pine key! Talked to the nice couple, lone wolves! Tickled me. 300 lb weight on front bumper, 300 lb tongue weight. Said it drove like a dream. :-)

Slab City...

Visited Slab City (near Salton Sea) this Saturday and saw a whole bunch of Streams, including some imitators. Here are a few.

Saw a 25'+/- wide body today headed toward the entrance to Highlands Hammock State Park. It blew past me while I was ridding my bike on the trail near Jackson Lake, so I did not get a good look. Not sure if they stopped at the park or not, since I'm not staying there.

Pulled into San Mateo CG in San Clemente CA tonight around 9 pm. While walking our dog Heidi we saw two 25 FBs and a Bambi. In the morning we will stop by to say Hi. Looks like we may have a mini rally this weekend.

Land Yacht Diner in SF "Eat Curbside"

My daughter has decided that we should skip the polish and go straight for the spray painted slogans all over the out side.

We just got back from a trip from TX to CA and back. We only saw a few Airstreams on the road, but we did see a few more parked in RV parks or on the side of the road. We also saw this just outside of Abilene.

Coming back from South Florida we stopped overnight in Lake City at a little RV Park behind a convenience store and within walking distance of everything. There were two old Streams there which had tires but seemed to be pretty much semi permanent or permanent homes. One was in decent shape, but one was on excellent shape, no dents or anything. Looked like a 1960s or earlier model.

As we were leaving a relatively new Classic came through which we followed out. Saw two others headed south on 75 yesterday, but couldn't make out makes and models. Also saw one of those incredibly cute vintage Mark Twain silvers.

Also, traversed north yesterday bucking a 25 mph to 35 mph headwind that occasionally hit from the west instead. One of them ole hold 'er Newt days!

However, box trailers, even fivers and mohos seemed much worse off. Passed a few box trailers cause it was too nerve wracking watching them sway wildly and almost tilt too far!!! We figured as we and other 'streams smoothly passed, the owners of the boxes said, "look at that blankety blank Airstream running' straight and true down the road!". Wind seems to only irritate Ezzie, up the gas consumption, and make her hunker down on the road harder!

I beg to differ.
When you feel the need to put the name of a website (that extols how free you live) on the side of your trailer, you are simply a slave to a different norm.

Who is this Norm guy anyway? Why does he still have slaves in 2012? Is he associated with Joseph Kony?
