Okay so in the kitchen of our Airstream on the wall between the two little windows, there was this sticker. I didn't take a before picture of it (how was I to know, really?) but it said something like "Don't use anything abrasive to clean this pretty pretty aluminum, or…

We found another spot not too far from home called Milo McIver State Park. It's wooded and pretty and there's a big reservoir there that looks like it might be good for kayaking. This was the view up from our campfire: We stayed here for a couple days but…

Today we planned to go have brunch with my mom at her house in Kelso, WA and decided we'd move the Airstream to a Washington State Park called Paradise Point State Park. We knew it was probably not really going to be Paradise since it was right off of I-5,…
