Just got back from a weekend of tailgating for a football game here in Austin. My friend parks his 1972 Winnebago next to my 63 Overlander, and it's quite the setup.

We just got back from a 4 week ramble around the Pacific NW. SE Oregon, Yellowstone, Port Townsend WA, Jackson CA, up the Coast, through the redwoods, Beaches in Oregon and more. We had a blast and have the dirty trailer to prove it

We just got back from the Branson Fall Rally and Chili Cookoff at Branson, Mo, had a wonderful time! Lots of good friends and great food!

Decided we needed a short break and took the 23FB to Asheville to enjoy the changing color of the leaves and have a bit of fun. Weather was good the first day, and then rain and cold, but oh..... the trailer sure was fun! Have been working so hard all summer, that we have not been able to go anywhere, so off we went. It was hard to come back to reality!

We just got back Sunday evening from a trip to Gulf Shores, Alabama. We stayed at the Gulf Shores State park campground. Very nice and highly recommended.
We also stayed one evening on the way back at Joe Wheeler State Park in Rogersville, Alabama. It also was a very nice campground that could accomodate long trailers. The staff at both parks very friendly!

Had a great time with the Ca. Streamers at Rivernook #3

Okay, today is Tuesday, but we are on the last leg of a 3-month trip (minus a 10-day break for Maggie to tear the cartilage in a knee/have surgery) to Minnesota, Michigan, Indiana, Ohio (2 stops at JC), Pennsylvania, New York and Maryland! Will be home in a few hours, hugging and kissing sweet grandbabies.

We have had an absolutely wonderful time in our '06 Interstate, which ran like a top and with which we are in love even more. At 61,000+ miles, it and retirement travel remain a dream come true.

We boondocked more on this trip than ever before, enjoyed some beautiful, scenic areas and one morning in the Catskills saw A GREY WOLF chasing a deer---as we were drinking morning coffee! Wow! We enjoyed a lot of Revolutionary and Civil War sites, made some new friends, visited with some old ones and spent time with adult children.

May everyone at some point in their lives be so fortunate. Life is good.

Camping area has its own boat ramp and parking; also a swim area. Restroom/shower facilities are clean and in the process of being remodeled. Electric and water hookups at all sites; has a dumping facility. Most sites are back-ins; although there are a few pull-throughs. I thought that most sites were pretty private (lots of trees) but since I am new to this I don't have anything else to make a comparison to. Downtown is less than 30 minutes -- hard to believe that something so wonderful is so close to the city.

We love our Airstream!!!!!!

We just bought a 28 International CCD and went on our first family outing near home as well. We went to Brown County State Park in Indiana. It is about three hours from our home in Centerville, Ohio. This park looked like a mini version of the Smokies and the fall foilage was in full regalia. Enjoy the new Airstream. We sure love it. Also, I am traveling with my three little ones who are 8, 5, and 18 months.

Welcome to the forums. Nice to know that your first outing went well. Enjoy the life-style that comes with 'Streamin.

We just got back today from DisneyWorld in Orlando. Not my first choice of places to go but the kids loved it (girls 6 and 9). Stayed at Disney's Fort Wilderness Campground--a huge place. The campground itself is a half mile wide by a mile and a half deep. Well run and spotless, though.
How refreshing it was to return to the tranquility of our Airstream each evening after fighting crowds and being herded through lines like cattle all day.

My son-in-law would agree with you about the tranquility of returning to the campground. He said he felt like a gerbil while he was in the parks.

As for the campground, I highly agree. I rented a cabin at Wilderness for the daughter, son-in-law, three kids and myself during spring break this year. All of Wilderness Campground is beautifully maintained. We used all the free transportation during the week and didn't have a problem. The food at the dining hall is wonderful, especially the fried chicken. The staff is ready to help you with anything at anytime.

Now, I have to convince hubby that we need to go back and take the Airstream.

Has anyone streamed at Mr Nebo in Dardanelle Arkansas...beautiful fall colors and a beautiful winding road to the top of this modest 1300 or so ft peak...Mt Magazine just up the road in Paris Ark is also a delight and higher at about 2750 feet....

Anyone been to Caprock Canyon State park in Texas....I am planning a trip there over the thanksgiving time period....any thoughts???

Time to revive this thread...

It's Monday and I just got back from the Lousiania marsh...
2 days for work related to dat big-o-oil spill
and
3 days for some fishin' with pals...

We rented a 'camp house with wheels' and I parked the stream right by it (plugged in and tripped a couple of breakers...)

One of our two boat's limited on Red's and the other did fairly good also...

Chilhowie Campground in the great Tennessee mountains. We had 105 kids show up for a free kids fishing day loaded with prizes, food and lots of fun. Then chilled in the evening. Great campground, sites are not on top of each other, fishing and a beach area at the lake. Also close enough to raft or launch your own boat on the Ocoee River.
