Howdy from Texas!

I am somewhat new to the RVing.

I own a 1966 Airstream that I'm restoring. My wife and I just took it on a 3k mile trip around the Southeast and met a lot of nice folks with all kinds of RVs and travel trailers.

I wanted to join this forum to say hello and perhaps connect with other RVers out there (not just Airstreamers).

Looking forward to reading and sharing!

Thanks for all the welcomes!

Thanks for the welcome. I'm in Austin out near Lake Austin. It's about 5 minutes away on a bike. So, outside the city limits but still just 15 min from the city.

The trailer is a restoration in progress. I have a thread over on the Air Forums if y'all are interested in that. 1966 Airstream Globetrotter (Twin) - Airstream Forums

Here are a few pics from the first road trip we just took in it after months of repair/restore:

Welcome neighbor. I live out by the Pedernales River near Lake Travis. That is one beautiful specimen of an Airstream. I bet it turns lots of heads. Would love to see the inside when it's ready for viewing.
