There were two of those at the International rally last year. Both were towing small vintage AIRSTREAM's.

Roof Patio 390

Saw a boxy moho with a big 'forehead' driving through Petrified Forest NP this afternoon. It was maroon. As it went by, I read 'Roof Patio 390' on the side, and saw the Airstream logo on the back. So I guess I have seen the rare 'Skydeck'!

Also saw two recent trailers, one of which I think had the rear hatch of a Pendleton or Eddie Bauer.

We saw this beauty yesterday heading north on US 11/15 near Duncannon, PA (just north of Harrisburg). We followed it for a bit because I was interested in the bike rack. The bikes appeared to be very secure!

Was watching "RV 2 Go" yesterday. It is like the house hunting shows where folks looking to full time visit an RV lot and pick out their future home.

Lady who works as a traveling nurse went to the Airstream dealer with her friend that had RVed for years. She looked at the 23D, 16, 19, and 23FB. Liked a lot about everything except the 16, because of the wet bath.

The dinette in the 23FB was a loser as a bed for her friend, but the rest was a real winner. Her perfect bathroom and bed room. The 23D was a winner on the couch, but a loser on the bed. She felt the bed was too short for her. But her biggest concern was her fear of towing a 23 ft coach.

She went with the 19. Her friend liked the dinette bed. She really liked the exterior shower and the awning. But her choice was driven to the 19, because she was more comfortable towing the shorter trailer.

Nice to see shiny coaches on the show. Pat

Not us, but I saw that trailer and a Bambi there last week, we left Gulf State Park on Friday the 9th heading back to NOLA. Saw an older one also and a newer one on the main drag. We were there for the Jimmy Buffett concert Tuesday at the Wharf Amphitheater. Got soaked in the rain storm but who cares, you can only get so wet. Ate at LuLu's. The new board walks are wonderful, great park.

Pharm, it will happen. We were coming home from a trip to Tennessee when an Airstreamer in Arkansas who wasn't towing at the time took pics of us then posted in sightings. Was a pleasant surprise next time I visited Forums

I've only been spotted once only after I first spotted someone else as we were traveling I-75 south on our way home from Jackson Center.

Airstream sightings

Spotted two today. An Avon parked at a Rest Area on highway 89 somewhere near Minto Ontario. Sorry no picture but it seemed to be a couple walking their dog. We tooted the horn and waved. The second was heading south on Hwy #11 at the 6th line of Oro about 2 today. A white pick up towing a 27? Not sure but we did get a picture. Good to see some airstream out there.
