Met a black SUV with bikes on top and a tandem Airstream travelling eastbound, just west of Field, BC, on Sat. 18th, @ 16:40. This is the same day of accident in Rogers Pass with the 5 hr shutdown of traffic through that Pass. I have you on my DVR!!!!!

We are in Grand Marais, MN and have seen about 20 Airstreams with the oldest being a 1957. It's so great to see so many silver bullets!

We were in Maine this week and took a day trip up to Orr's Island as ZoominC6 had recommended it. On the way there (on Rte 24) saw an Excella being pulled by a red truck (Ford?). Then got a quick glimpse of Zoomin's rig and one in a site across from his but didn't want them to think we were stalkers so we didn't introduce ourselves :-)

For such a remote area, I was surprised to see 3 other Airstreams!!

Sorry no pics...

Another Airstream in the North Abutment campground. Met the owners. Real nice couple. They bought the trailer from his uncle who had a stroke. They have started renovating and updating a trailer that was really nice to start with. 1991 Excella 1000 32'.
His uncle started with a 1969 Bambi 16'. He upgraded a couple of times until his retirement when he bought this trailer.
The current owners tow it with a Ford F250 6.0 diesel left from when he had a 35' Montana 5th wheel. The went from a pop-up to a 26' travel trailer to the fifth wheel to an 18' travel trailer. They like the airstream better than any of those other trailer.

Missed the "edit" feature by just a few minutes - wanted to add that's Spruce Park RV campground on the Flathead River in Kalispell, Montana - near Glacier National Park.

Oops. I was east bound and the one I saw later being pulled by a black pick up was west bound.

Saw this vintage kin where we store our trailer at Marina Boat and RV storage in Marina Del Rey. Don't know what it is, but it looks cool!

On edit: maybe one of the Moderators can reorient the photo...

This one was a couple of spaces away from the TT in my prior post. Don't know what this one was either. Really love the jalouse windows in both of these trailers.

On our 2864 miles from Vancouver Island to the Ottawa Valley, we only spotted 3 Airstream units (all trailers) on the road.
One in BC, listed earlier and corrected below.
One heading west in Manitoba. (I did not note the time and am having difficulty finding it on my DVR)
And the third unit we met heading west, just to the east of IGNACE and HWY 102 junction. This was a White JEEP SUV, towing mirrors, roof rack, tandem axle Airstream.

My ARC (road camera) has not been working for most of this trip but I hope to have that problem solved before we continue down into the Mohawk Valley.

Dave


On the previous post listed below I will correct the sighting to read ""Black SUV TRAVELING WESTBOUND JUST EAST OF FIELD""

Spotted a late model 23-27 footer headed south on I-65 yesterday just outside Montgomery, AL. TV was a white F-150. Flashed my lights, but was towing a golf cart instead of the AS.

OK, I'm pretty sure that's not an Interstate in the photo.

I know that I-40 doesn't go through Colorado.

Nice rig, though.
