I still find these scattered about the alley, my garage and near the trailer. Brings back good memories. Anyone recognize the photo?

Awning Install Party

Thought it was about time for an awning. Got this installed yesterday just in time for a trip to sunny Eastern Washington.

Looking good Norm.

Want to put a streetside on mine. Who did you buy from?

Cheers,
Steve

We bought direct from Zip Dee. Very happy with their service and the quality of the hardware. Expensive shipping, but we were able to combine shipping with a friend's order which helped a lot.

Norm,

Great pics, as always. Very jealous of the shine and the awning. Looking very good.

Quick question -- on pic 3 of 4 (with the most yellow), what is above and to the left of the awning? It looks like 5 "waves" in the aluminum. Is that part of the awning hardware or part of the trailer?

Still a couple years away from our trip to the Northwest, but will definitely let you know if we head in your direction.

John

Hey John,

Good to hear from you. The waves are actually the casing that wraps around the awning fabric when it is rolled up. It's a really nice feature of these awnings.

NORM!!!!

Looks great. I'm looking forward to putting another awning on mine, I've been using 10x10 EZ-Ups and they just don't look as nice...

Hope all is well with you and yours.

Still Camping!

Haven't been on the forum much lately, but the Captain is still camping strong. Went out to Grayland State Park a few weeks ago and have another trip in a couple weeks. Unfortunately we lost our awesome storage site next door as our neighbors finally decided to build on the vacant lot we have parked the trailer at the last seven years. I miss being able to pop over and work on the trailer whenever I want, so it's time for a little landscape work at our house to open up a parking space.
