He Said, "How Can You?"
A fun dialogue that has happened to us, on this issue, was in a campground. We had been given several positive comments about our Airstream, and the other Flying Cloud a couple of sites down, on a trip. Then, my next-site neighbor guy commented, "How do you stand to camp in that tiny, narrow trailer. Ha, I thought! He and his spouse were "camping" in a very tall and wide box trailer, with expansions open, all around. He was a great neighbor, who was fun to talk to. His "tiny trailer" comment came at me by surprise. He also mentioned that his wife wanted a bigger bathtub. They were going to trade this one in on a larger model, when they got home. I just smiled and said that we like to "rough it" in our "little AS." Honestly, however, we laugh about that very issue ... We hardly are roughing it in an Airstream. My take on this is that there are two types of trailer campers, and maybe some in the middle. There are people like us, who like a high quality, easy, light tow and set-up "camper-trailer." There are others that really are taking a "vacation cabin" to different places. For us, those really aren't into "camping." We meet and enjoy visiting with various types in the campgrounds. We did enjoy these neighbors, too. Yes, we have talked about a bit larger Airstream. But, every time we do, we stare at our prized Airstream "Easy," and realize that we have more here than we personally need, already. Viva la Difference. Makes the world go around, doesn't it! Dave
