Howdy neighbors!
We've had our Airstream for a month and currently transitioning to embrace a minimalist lifestyle and live in it full-time. Hell, I have to say, as rookies - we were both so freaking nervous! We live in Houston and drove to Grand Rapids Michigan to pick it up. I am sooo thankful to the dealership as they allowed us to camp out on their property for 2 nights and taught us the ropes. Then we were off alone down south to Texas. Definitely a lot to learn! Like not to always listen to Google maps as it took us on a shortcut through a bad neighborhood on the south side of Chicago. We also learned if we are going to make a stop somewhere (like KOA of Hot Springs, AK), to check ahead of time if there are any big events happening and not to arrive late at dark! Big mistake! Hubby and I arrived not knowing that weekend was the largest motorcycle rally in AK! I was praying that he wouldn't knock over someone's motorcycle as a few guys hollered at us because we came rather close. Oh man! Sorry for the rambling, yet somehow... it's like therapy for me as I have no doubt many of you can relate to the "rookie stage". With that said, I look forward to your advice / guidance and best practices.
P.S. It was an epic journey indeed through the beautiful countryside and looking forward to more. Just the next time - not as nervous.
