Sheriff Spiffy Came to Blogtown.

we can do better and we knew it.

perhaps it's a late case of spring cleaning taking effect, but we decided it was time for a major blog overhaul. see the new graphics?! new palette!? and from here on out...better content, like:

more stories that actually do happen on the road (and beyond!) but never quite seem to make it to the page. also, more pictures that i am constantly taking of our travels but don't make it off the camera card. (shameful, right?)

we are gearing up for another weekend trip, albeit close to home, to the north GA mountains. just a few nights away can be such a nice change of pace from the same four walls you face during the week. hot, juicy topics of conversation around the house regarding the coming trip include:

- biscuits and egg beaters for breakfast (regular style or southwestern? hmm. these are serious decisions. )
- will the AC stand up to 96 degree temps this weekend?
- will miss pickles (our boston terrier) ever stop having anxiety attacks everytime we travel?
- the "fishtail": our new secret weapon for maneuvering the trailer out of some tight spots and campsites. (try getting a 27" trailer into a back-in...takes some practice.)

oh, yes. i told you the content was going to be better. (tantalizing, even.)

we hope you'll love the love we're putting into sharing the airstreamin' life with all of you.

happy travels,
jen

Hi,

I have been following your adventures, as I try to get my blog back on it's feet and caught up--never let is slip like I did. We're leaving on June 30 for Canada. You can follow us at www.silvercabin.net. I like your new look.

OK, so I was logged in as the wrong user. Let's see what happens when I post!

Well thank you Randy! There will be a ton more postings for this summer. Actually have some stuff I've shot that I haven't gotten a chance to edit. Our next trip is to Chattanooga, TN this weekend, we're ready to go right now!

See you on the road!

Ah. Much better!

Jen and Richard,

I LOVE the blog and have been camping "virtually" from your posts, keep them coming. If you're ever in CT you can set up in my backyard. Look forward to getting together soon.

Thanks for the invite Steve and Lisa! Will actually be heading to Rhode Island (where I originally come from)! We've already made accomodations though. Normandy Farms,here we come!

At least stop buy for lunch!

Steve! Good to hear from you!

Just posted our itinerary. Don’t think we’re going to have much time. We may (probably not) have another waypoint that we need to hit. After 2 days of driving, we’re going to need to decompress for a bit.
But, we may hit you up in the not too distant future. Don’t suppose your garage has a 30 AMP electrical outlet? :)
