The story made our local paper too - if we were camping today, I'd put them out in his memory!
We never really wanted to get into the "pink flamingo" part of Airstreaming but first my wife's sister gave us two
"real" pink flamingos - the pale pink original Don Featherstone creations that she had had for years, still in their original box.
Then, Janet at the Wenatchee vintage rally gave us two more, saying "Seeing as you don't have any..." "Oh, no!" we protested, and got the Don Featherstone originals out (truth be told: for the
first time!) and showed her. Janet just said, "Well,
now you have two more!"
Then a neighbor gave us one as a hostess gift "for the trailer..."
We now have 5 and haven't bought one! But, we are proud of them now... Here's the little darlin's out for their morning sun!
