All geeked out

When my friend John told me about a trailer for sale that was one of those "silver ones" I immediately thought of the Airstream brand. Kharim has always coveted an Airstream and I couldn't believe I might be so lucky to find one.

When we drove up the hill on the MacLeod's property I couldn't believe my eyes. It looked exactly how I hoped. But upon closer inspection I noticed it was from the Avion Coach Corporation, a company I had never heard of.

But, thanks to Google, that didn't last long. There are lots of websites dedicated to the cult that is Avion, just like the Airstream following. I spent the next few days clicking through page after page of photos and information about the joys and challenges of owning an Avion.

I had so much fun that I told Kharim I had full plans to get "all geeked out" and send my photos and story in to the Silver Avion website if I was lucky enough to get the trailer.

True to my word, I emailed Avion Guy my stuff earlier in the week. Less than 24 hours later he sent me a link to my page (my page!). Yeah, it's geeky. But I love it!

In other news, we're getting closer to spending the night. The toilet/sinks/shower are all working and so is the propane stove. We just have a few city commitments (street party, Super Nanny's 97th birthday) to get through in the next couple of days and then we'll pack up for a sleepover.
