Lots of fun, check it out on the web. I'm currently on the Gulf Coast in South Ala and hope to 'get outta here' as weather permits. Florida and it's coast is kind of my stomping area so I'd like to head to Branson if time and weather permits. To me it's all about chasing 70*
Have not made it to sawmill. We have been wanting to check it out. Been to ones in our area and lumberjacks in south GA. Is sawmill pretty cool? Hope to make there soon. I hear it's a good winter getaway.

We're going to book our spot tomorrow and put it on the calendar. Im also going to see if they have cabins so we can drag some friends along.

The only remaining hurdle will be hooking up the Bambi and towing her out of town (sadly, this is often our biggest challenge)!

I made it home to KC. I canceled Chicago due to the weather. We got a ton of snow in KC but not as much as you! I'm glad to be home!

I can't wait to meet you both! They have small cabins RVs and tepees to rent. It's a fun place to visit. Did you look at their web site? I'm sick of winter!

Smart move, buddy. It was a wild and crazy storm. We live on Fullerton just west of the Drive, so I was glad to be indoors looking out. What a scene! See you in warmer climes!

We've been watching the Chicago weather- my cousins and aunt are in Lake Bluff and I'm there twice a year- I can't imagine, its always so nice when I'm there in June and October... glad to hear you're all doing ok, the stories of the people stuck on Lake Shore Drive were pretty awful.

Pride in the pines

dsrtgrls & TBRich I think we might be up for a road trip to flagstaff for pride. We always enjoy pride and for some reason we "stumble" on pride somewhere every summer. Seriously, we happended on pride in Vancouver BC, SanDiego in past years and then Barcelona Spain last year!

We didn't do a lot of Airstreamin' last year but we plan on doing a lot this summer. Are there some good RV spots in Flagstaff? I've been thru there but not spent any time. State park might even be nice.

Mike

Mike...

The Flagstaff KOA is ground zero for Flagstaff's Pride in the Pines...that's where we will be staying...along with everyone else who is RVing there for the weekend. There's not a state park close to Flagstaff but there are some good NF campgrounds in the area... Would be great to have you there! There's us, dsrtgrls, and at least 2 other Airstream FODs who will likely be there...

Hi from NY

Hi from NYC/Upstate. Nice to see this group forming. Not a lot happening in the northeast right now except snow. Arkansas looks like fun.

Signed,

waiting for spring.

I guess I shouldn't mention that the spring bulbs are starting to bloom here, eh?

Sounds like a great time. Always wanted to take a cruise. We turned one down with two other friends after I found out how much it was going to cost by the time they are done with Moho. Lol. Next year maybe. Love Hawaii It's a blast. Be safe and we will see y'all in a few months. Post some pics of your trips.
