Vintage Camping.

Here's a fun story for you. Jami's parents have owned a vintage 1967 Airstream RV for close to 30 years. But for the last 20 or so, it has not been used too often (except for that summer when Jami was entering 6th grade when we were moving from Horton to Hiawatha ... it was our temporary residence by the Horton Lake ... great memories!) Anyway, for many years, it's been stored in a barn in Kansas. Just recently, the Airstream has resurfaced and is in the process of getting a makeover. Jim has been working diligently on the RV to scrub, clean, reupholster, recarpet, etc. to prep it for the upcoming summer months. Can't you just picture how much fun Luke and Reid will have in Papa's camper! Fun times are ahead.

The other part of the recent Airstream adventures has been getting to know more about the "culture" of those who own these unique silver campers. This past weekend, Jim and Jami attended the Wally Byam Caravan Club International meeting (Wally Byam is the founder of Airstream). The meeting was held in Colorado Springs. The club focuses on upcoming rallies, repair assistance, and story sharing. Jim even won the door prize ... this lovely banner to hang on the Airstream when out camping.

Stay tuned for more "vintage camping" adventures...
