VERY COOL. I love the Spirit of '76. In 1976 I fell off the uneven bars in elementary school, breaking BOTH arms. My father painted the liberty bell on one of my casts for the bicentennial. My nickname that year was "claws".

Anyway, love your theme and would enjoy seeing more pics if you have time! Your trailer is beautiful.

We are in B9(close to the food I hear about). we are checking in on Monday and going home Sunday. We plan to go one day to .Biltmore and other places around the Blueridge parkway my favorite place. I look forward meeting the folks and putting a face and name on the People who post on here. come by and say hello.

Looks great! I'm still hoping my '76 will be road ready by Sept 1, 2011.

Eastern South Dakota is very pretty with hills, rivers, and trees.
