Dreams Come True…

At least for us they have. Getting our 30 foot Airstream was our goal. We needed something to travel in to see the USA that would be reliable, sturdy and easy to pull. We were blessed with finding a used 2014 International Signature Airstream. We had to travel to Virginia to get it. But it was worth it. We are really happy with the quality of the craftsmanship of the Airstream line.

Our first stop was to go to Texas where we decided we would change our “domicile” and become Texans. But on the way, we stopped in Arizona and found the right truck for us in Scottsdale. What a difference in pulling a trailer to have a heavy duty diesel truck! It pulled our little Jayco trailer (our first trailer) right up the hills and mountains.

When we arrived in Texas, we found we had to register all our vehicles before we could get our driver’s licenses. But in order to register our truck, we had to have the pink slip. It takes awhile for the DMV to process all that. So we headed off to Virginia to look at the Airstream. We had pretty much made up our minds already, but it didn’t hurt to look. The previous owners were really nice and threw in a bunch of extras.

Looking at the weather on our way out of Virginia, we noticed a real winter storm moving in fast. We had to head straight south to Florida to avoid it. Even so, it got pretty cold for a few days. But finally, we made it back to Texas and warmer weather.
