- Flying Cloud is the model name of our 1963 Airstream... now at large (but often just parked) in the 38th state.

history
- Our Flying Cloud was built in Santa Fe Springs, California around 1962. Airstream manufactured the Flying Cloud model from 1950-1963, so this one was the end of the line.
- It was originally registered as #11229 in the Wally Byam Caravan Club International, or so we have heard.
- We took over this blog along with the trailer from the previous owners. We are the Flying Cloud's fifth owners.

blogroll
So we finally got around to posting our blogroll (translation for Mom and Dad: list of blogs I like). Find it at the lower left. Unable to limit myself, I ended up with a little of everything. In general, I'm a sucker for anything well designed and pretty (with good content, of course)... these blogs are that! Tour of America is of course the granddaddy of Airstream blogs. Delicious:days, written by a couple in Munich, has long been my favorite food blog. Farmgirl Fare is also a very cool food/rural living blog with a great story. I figure I would probably be a better food/garden blogger than I am an Airstream blogger, but so it goes. All the garden blogs are good depending on what kind of garden info I'm looking for...and since we don't have a garden in Colorado yet I just live vicariously through them. And design blogs - as one would expect - are such eye candy! I am waiting for Michael to contribute his list of dow theory and macro-economics and energy and finance blogs.... Until then, you'll have to wait on the edge of your seat.
7/25 Update: I forgot to mention that poppytalk recently featured a very cute boutique-in-a-64 Airstream in BC, Canada, and I just saw the happy living blog posted about us! Let's cheer them on on getting an Airstream of their own! :)
