Our Airstream

adam

We bought an Airstream.  Thirty-one feet of sweetness.  Yea, it’s got a full kitchen, bathroom & shower, bedroom and lounging area.  No big deal.

Our Airstream and lot in Clear Lake, MN

Heidi and I were out at the Clear Lake Airstream Park hanging out with the Wolleat gang last weekend.  There happened to be an open house for the park….how convenient!  After seeing this lot and the Airstream we couldn’t pass this deal up.  So we bought it.  That’s simple, right?

Our 1973 Airstream International is going to be a project this fall and winter.  We’re going to rip out the carpet and some of the cabinets this fall.  We’ll paint the interior, re-do much of the cabinets, and then get it ready for winter storage.  This winter we’ll reupholster some of the furniture and get new draps made.  We’ll be ready to rock out next spring.

More pictures of our Airstream.  Stay tuned for updates!

Stone Temple Pilots concert

adam

On Friday night STP rocked the Roy Wilkens auditorium. The whole band is back together again and it’s apparent when you hear them play. I was pleasantly surprised to see the band play with cohesion after years apart. Weiland was his usual goofy self, dancing all over the stage. The DeLeo brothers had great stage presence as always. Tickets were about 65$ with all the lame Ticketmaster fees, but it was well worth it. Check out their schedule and go see them!
