The axles are here!!! :-) Two for the Overlander and one for the Safari. I'm excited to get started on that project.
I also bought 1/4" and 1/2" Oak plywood to re-do some interior woodwork that's delaminated. :-)

Very interested in what you think of the Parklane. My wife and I will retire next summer and I want to upgrade our mattress.

Good planning. You will not regret owning an airstream.

Another opinion, but we had an RV queen Parklane mattress in the last trailer. We liked it.

We have installed Rocky Mountain mattresses of the appropriate configuration in all three Airstreams and have the 12" King version at home. We used the 8" queen in the 25FB, 8" twins in the Classic and a 10" in the 23D.

Saw one of those in the flesh, as it were, in the road near San Bernardino, CA a couple days ago.

Two recent additions to my trailer's kitchen. A lovely salad/serving bowl from CampCasual and a wooden cutting board from AHeirloom (that I helped design). Very happy with these!

Actually, I got a new 600 Watt 300 amp hour solar system last week for my Airstream. But I saw this thread today.....

My old Rand McNally GPS had a nervous break down during my trip to The Keys. Thought it was time to upgrade. Received my new Garmin RV 760 with rear camera today. After 3 hours to update the software it was ready to go. First impression is good. Tomorrow I will start on the camera install on the rear of the trailer.
Other project of the day was getting the wheel bearings serviced. Local Airstream dealer took care of that. I have been putting this off for too long.

Hi, my Caroline is an RV 760 Garmin and she does a great job. Georgette [Garmin 1490] stayed in my Lincoln. The Garmin RV 760 is great, way smarter, and has much more useful information. I still haven't installed my rear camera yet.

My new outdoor boondocking shower arrived today. I just couldn't bring myself to do the plastic, so sucked it up for the stainless steel. It looks a quality piece of goods. This should take a great deal of pressure off the grey tank.
