It has been a great week on the road traveling Texas two laners and visiting small towns and out of the way places. Now i am back in Austin and staying at my favorite downtown RV park, Pecan Grove. This park contains a most interesting collection of vintage airsteam trailers and i have pictured a few for your viewing pleasure! One is owned by Lance Armstrong who visits several times a year. The last photo is a newer model, personally i love the flavor of the older units. If you have interest in vintage airstreams, you can find a lot of info at http://www.vintageairstream.com/index.html
The waiting list to stay in this park full time is measured in years and many of these airsteams have called this home for a long time. This park is about the only positive thing i can think of about the economic mess this country is in. Even though there is a lot of construction going on in Texas, it was all on the books, there is no new stuff coming out of the ground. So, even though this property is so valuable, it may be left un touched for a while yet. Look at the pic of the cranes in the background, this massive project is right next door!
I will spend this weekend in Austin, and then move on. I am very sad to hear the recent news of the passing of my friend Kymberly. You certainly will be missed, may you rest in peace.
