While S/B on Hwy101 yesterday, we passed a newer 25'+ A/S parked in the roadside rest north of Paso Robles, CA. Looked like a younger family.
We honked, they didn't hear us.

I-295 North in Falmouth, Maine, Northbound, about 8:13 am. A big long airstream with a blue stripe (so it's newer, but I don't know how new) and two axles. Didn't get a chance to notice the tow vehicle. Didn't see any numbers on the back, but I _was_ paying attention to the southbound traffic, as that is the direction I was traveling.

Doesn't match the picture in his profile, as the 2005 Safari in his pic is lacking the blue stripe I saw.

Unless they got another one

A little slow in posting, but saw what i would guess as a 30'+ in the state park weekend before last...

Saw the folks walking across into another campsite and didn't want to intrude - but still always enjoy seeing others in the same park!

With most of the south-central RV's headed toward Talledega this weekend it was a matter of time 'till I spotted a 'stream.
Late '60's tradewind BLEW by me yesterday on I-20 east bound, I think he was trying to pass lapped traffic

Some kind of Airstream

We saw an Airstream going north on Range Line in Joplin, Misssouri yesterday, it was painted on the sides in some kind of colorfu l design. I didn't get a really close look at it, it was going pretty fast. All I could make out was the word "Experience" on the streetside near the front.

I35 in Texas

Yesterday on southbound I35 south of Temple I passed what looked like an early 70s Overlander being towed behind a black Suburban. Nice looking rig.

Urban Camping

There is a fairly new Airstream cozily parked in a back yard garden at the corner of Hanna and Rumsey in the upper middle class East York / Leaside part of TORONTO.

I haven’t seen an Airstream in the downtown core for many years. There used to be an old Argosy in the light industrial/ working class area around the Tarragon Theatre many years ago.

That was when I was just daydreaming. By the time I got up the courage to try to penetrate the NO TRESPASSING and MIND THE DOG warnings and knock on the door of the ramshackle house, the trailer had disappeared.

Spotted ~30ft? Airstream behind Ford SD pickup, heading south on I-85 just north of Charlotte, NC today. Had WBCCI numbers, but didn't see them well enough...

That's the infamous "Break Wind" I hear mentioned on the VAP occasionally.

Less than 1,000 lbs loaded will be tough to attain. I can't wait to see it finished.

If it isn't made by Airstream, is it really an Airstream or is it a something that looks like an Airstream?
