March 2009 Photo Contest

We have given thought as to what would be a fun theme for the March 2009 Photo Contest, and we think it would be interesting and entertaining to see how Airstreamers decorate their campsites to create a fun/festive/welcoming atmosphere for their own and their neighbors' enjoyment...

Photo submissions must show an Airstream, of course, and could feature an entire campsite ambiance created to be enjoyed by campers and visitors alike...or photos could feature a small detail of your campsite like the ever-popular flamingos, a welcome sign, wind chimes, whirly-gigs, an entrance name plaque, a table set for a feast, or campsite yard art in general. Or if you went all out for a holiday, rally or special event, that would be good, too.

Show us your campsite creativity!

Below are a few examples from our own memories...

Pic #1: Our license plate sign with a chain saw bear carving...
Pic #2: An wind chime hanging from the with a backdrop of the Verde Valley in AZ...
Pic #3: ScrapIrony-2's flamingo campsite/yard art at Dead Horse 3...
Pic #4: Sandy's campsite at Lake Pleasant, AZ with Tasha & Cody all settled in and the table set for an al fresco BBQ feast...

Great idea for this month's contest.

The picture below was taken at the Airforums rally at Moraine View State Park, IL. I believe the cup was given to us at another Airforums rally in Branson by our friends at Airstream of Arkansas. If you look closely, you will see six Airstreams in the picture. Coffee is good anytime.

Here are photos from several rallies and or gatherings. In no particular order is the New England Region Alumination Celebration Rally in NH, the Salem, OR International Rally and the first Vintage Jam held in Saratoga Springs, NY.

We always try to remember to have the sunflowers for open house day. The fireplace display was for Alumination Rally. Wildlife was it represent creatures we met while on our cross country trip that summer.

Awning, old bicycles and lil' skunks also come into play at times.

The sunset and desert flora helped make this a great patio last weekend at Gilbert Ray in Tucson.
