Maiden Voyage








We took our trailer to Tahoe.  I can suggest going to Tahoe at the beginning of May, or in October.  People forget that they want to flock to the lake, and it was mostly left to us.  We spent some time hiking towards the Desolation Wilderness, until the snow covered the trail.  We ate home cooked food and washed off in a hot shower.  We came home refreshed and happy!  The cold nights weren't a bother, and we learned all the workings of the Airstream.

I wasn't expecting to have other campers want a tour of the trailer, but it is cute and fun, so they wanted a look.  Good thing we are so friendly.

The Long, Long, Trailer

My new plan is to take photos that are horizontal!
 





I have wanted a trailer since I was small and sat on the floor in front of the television and watched Desi Arnaz and Lucille Ball, haul a long long trailer on a vacation.

This is our Airstream.  I really wanted something old and nice, instead of new and cheap.  We looked around, and as if by design, I saw this on the way to work.  It then snowed for a few weeks, and the trailer was still for sale.  So we bought it.

It is our plan to haul this to Yellowstone at the end of the summer and a few shorter trips before then.  Now I am scouting out dishes, pots, pans, sheets and towels so we can be ready for our maiden voyage.      I'm read for an adventure!!

Hopefully our only misadventure will be singing in the front seat a bit too loudly (the best laid plans of mice and men....)
