Airstream RV Blog – Episode 1 : The Long, Long Honeymoon from Sean on Vimeo. |
It seems strangely appropriate that my first post on RV.net coincides with April Fool’s Day. You’ll never know how tempted I’ve been to post about space aliens converging upon Area 51 in flying Airstream travel trailers. But one suspects that sort of bad blog behavior (bloghavior? sorry) might bring my tenure here to a sudden end. So we’re going to keep today’s post on an even keel. Or to put it in RV parlance, our stabilizer jacks are down, and the refrigerator’s level. We’re on our best behavior.
Last year my wife and I got hitched, and began honeymooning aboard our travel trailer. We took the old “never stop honeymooning” advice quite literally, drifting around North America for months. We camped in private campgrounds, national parks, parking lots, you name it. We also started a blog to keep our friends and family updated.
What began as a hobby became something more. Our blog gave us the opportunity to share travel footage with people BEFORE we returned home. Our RV honeymoon played out like a reality show, without all the catty fighting and cash prizes. We met lots of people from around the world through our site, and had a great time doing it. So we pledged to not only keep on honeymooning, but also to keep on blogging. Our focus is usually upon the lighter side of RV-ing; the fun stuff!
Today’s video is new material. It dates back to that special time BEFORE we got married. We had just bought our Airstream and our truck, and were setting sail for the Florida Keys. They say you always remember your first time (your first time towing, that is). Thankfully, our first big RV trip was fantastic.
Please note that “Part 2” of this video is now available here:
