2012-0602 3rd Annual Alumapalooza (And Our New Segways!)
This time I took more photos than I know what to do with! HA! Here's the scoop...we went to the 3rd annual Airstream Alumapalooza put on by Airstream Life magazine and held at the Airstream factory in Jackson Center, OH. I'm not sure the total number of Airstreams and attendees but I believe it was just under 200 of the iconic travel trailers. Our friends Tom & Ella Brown who have a 2010 Airstream Bambi went as did our other friend (and Ella sister) Johanna "Tink" Bryant who has a 2009(?) rPod. Tink and Carie & I stayed at the Wapakoneta KOA in Wapakoneta, OH rather than staying at the Airstream factory's make shift campground with no showers and limited electric. And let me say the Wapakoneta KOA is top notch!!! The campground is one of the cleanest, well kept campgrounds we've been to and the owners and workamper staff are very friendly. The owners (will get their names and fill in the space later) work hard to make it a beautiful campground and it shows. http://wapakonetakoa.com/ and http://koa.com/campgrounds/wapakoneta/ While cruising around the small town of Jackson Center on our new Segways (!) we came upon the towns annual carnival and a cool auto show was just gearing up on Main St. so snapped a few pictures of that, too. Carie & I decided to get Segways rather the scooters because they are more versatile and can even be used indoors at many places. The main reason for the Segways is due to my having a hereditary condition where my feet blister badly after walking any distances so the Segways are sure opening doors for me to do and see things I couldn't otherwise do! And of course I couldn't just get me a Segway and not one for Carie. That wouldn't have gone over well! HA! Here's the pics...enjoy!

Looks like a swell weekend!
Alan and Carie.. when I looked at the motorhomes pics and saw one just like ours I almost laughed at how much we went DOWN in size when we got our T@B or even T@da! ha! we still have our 1984 345 m/h ours has a teal stripe down the side unlike any other airstream m/h. When we were at one of the 3 Intl. rallies that we have attended, anyway, we never saw a single one with teal stripe. :) just sharing is all. Wish it wasn't so far to travel with our 18ft.a/s vintage (1971) trailer to Mo.airstream Intl. rally, this summer.It would be fun to see you guys again if you are attending ??? enjoy your travels..! be safe!!!!
