Just got it yesterday - Best one yet! Bigger and thicker! More interesting articles!
Delivery must be improving to my area, because others reported receiving the last issue probably two weeks before I got it. This time I seem to be the first to report it.

Does it say anything about RL selling Rolling Thunder. I saw it on Ebay.

We were at the factory yesterday and I saw a copy, and was wondering why I haven't received it yet. But if it just came out, that explains it. Looks like another good one though.We did see a custom Airstream being completed for a overseas customer. It had almost black wall coverings, seating in 3/4 of it and one room at the front closed off by a door.. They were getting ready to install a bright Yellow Zip Dee.

We got ours yesterday. My favorite picture is of the monkeys jumping from truck to trailer in the Cairo to Capetown caravan. So Janet....is the picture of the trailer boondocking your backyard? or did you really camp there? After all you do live on the river.

Got mine Saturday (1/28) and read every page. Should I tell eveyone? They offered me a free one-year subscription. Must be because I bought a new Safari last year. Hope it's not a secret promotion that might offend those that paid $32./yr.

Yep we camped there. It was taken at Sacajawea State Park in Pasco WA - about 20 miles from home. They don't usually allow camping there - but we were there providing sound for a bluegrass festival at the park and they made an exception. Our trailer was 30 ft behind the stage and parked on the footprints of Lewis and clark. no services though...

Wow I got one too - I subscribed the first year and renewed - but then did not receive any issues - e-mailed a couple of times - thought maybe the visa did not go through (e-baying too much!) Never did here back - gee Airstream Life must be on the road
so this winter issue is either a carrot - or the lastest issues have been read by someone on my pocket book.
Rich if you check in here - the last batch I got was the package you sent me last year to replace my water damaged ones..(I honestly thought I had renewed) and yesterday - what a nice Birthday present to be able to get up late and read a bit of Airstream Life in Bed......
Rich - being in the publishing business myself - you must be on a very bumby road - words are dropping from your sentences
Maybe the editor has had a few too many margaritas or they are looking at the pictures instead of the text
Nice articles - nice mix - a good read - and I just love that Bambi prototype - now that is a vintage flavour - a nice blend between the late 60's style, layout and rich wood and brass - the perfect representation of the Top of Line Internationals on a changeover year - gold/brass trim love it!

I agree, best issue yet. Great read. I subscribed from the start and would love to go back and re-read some back issues but I can't remember where I stuck them!

Great issue!
I enjoyed the boondocking articles and seeing folks from the forum mentioned too. I like the variety in this issue, and the piece about the Beat Goes On really was nice. Keep up the great work Rich! So glad we renewed for 2 yrs!

Amen....
to all the comments said. I still can't figure out why we get ours a little later. Just got it yesterday. Do you have to make two loads with the truck, Rich?
Was happy to see the Fred Harvey article. Since I live in Leavenworth, I drive by his house quite often. It is a gem of a home. One of the last remaining Harvey girls lives in our fair town. Come visit!!!

Shock of shocks...mine was in the mail box today!
Every issue up to now has not arrived until weeks after the thread of people reporting their arrival of the magazine.
For the FIRST time EVER, I am on the front end of the rollout....wooohooo!
