Early April Update

Well, we keep buying and UPS keeps showing up. Eventually we'll be done and on the road. Things are really starting to shape up. It is starting to look like our future home away from home.

We are learning as we go along. The photo above of the bedroom area - after we got done with memory foam, sheet covers, etc, found making bed a problem as mattress overhangs by over 3" - nothing to hold sheets to.  I recalled a post on Airforums where someone else experienced the same thing and solved by adding another cut to shape piece of plywood under mattress. So, last saturday it was off to Perkins Lumber to pickup 2 4x8 sheets of 1/4" plywood. In the meantime, Mary had created a template to use to cut the rounded form to match trailer shape.  When all done, it worked like a charm and for a fact, I believe it made beds more comfortable.

The storage bins in the hall closet- saw that in another post/video related to Airstreams. Looked like a good idea, so we took some measurements and started looking. Found 1 unit at WalMart and others at Amazon. I definitely believe they will be of some use as we try to organize things and space.

Our Airstream & Mary's Fetish's

If you have ever seen our house, you know that my thing is fishing and  Mary's thing is Turtles, so without saying, both are becoming a part of our trailer. The turtles in this pic are actually from a fishing bait company. I just took the opportunity to re-direct their purpose to being a wall decoration.

Saturday April 12, we are off to Montpelier and a luncheon at Sarducci's with White Mountains NH unit of WBCCI. Hopefully we'll learn a lot about the group. At the very least, we'll get to meet Jay and Cathie Waltz and thank them  in person for all the help they have been to us.

Lastly, one of our purchases was Zia's "name tag", proudly posted just outside from door.
