Our 6-week summer adventure

We went on a 6-week trip with our 4 kids and dog, pulling our '65 Overlander. Here's a little bit about our adventure...www.OurAirstreamAdventure.com

Wow, great photos and wonderful experiences for all.

I wish my kids would do this, but it is very difficult to break my twin teen Colombian girls away from “phones, friends, and fingernails”, etc. Plus my job won’t let me take 6 weeks... but even 2 weeks would be great fun.

Thanks for sharing. Reminded me of the summer camping vacations my parents took us kids on in different SOB (some other brand) campers. Great memories.

Awesome! You guys just enabled some kids to be what this country needs really badly now. Real parents, spending real time, making real memories and building a real foundation for some real leaders. Carry on!

Thanks so much for your post. It is uplifting and full of life despite all the turmoil that disease and death can inflict. You appear to have a wonderful family and those kids are so fortunate to have you as parents. Time is the one thing we have so little of in this life. Why not spend it with those you love and share with them the awesome glory of Creation. And the Airstream is a fine way to see it!!

Thank you so much for sharing your journey. It's wonderful to see the family enjoying this country's natural wonders, with the lovely family dog along for the ride. Good for you! Your children will NEVER forget what you did, and saw, and tasted and felt.......all seven of you in that beautiful old trailer! Well done!

NICE!!!

Your kids will always remember these trips. Well Done!

I used to think some of my pics were pretty good - they pale next to some of yours. Nice work on the web site too.
