A girl walks into her friend's house for a spot of lunch, the house is being renovated by an indie contractor that the friend has known for ages. Introductions, lunch and back to work for the girl. Later that night a phone call from the contractor to the girl and a date is set for the upcoming Saturday night, fast forward 6 months and that girl and that contractor are happily making a life together and looking to buy one of these:
This isn't one of the actual ones they are looking to buy but that's the Soverign...
A 31' Airstream Sovereign. They are looking at two as the girl writes this blog. There's one in Orillia (1978) owned by a cool couple who took their Airstream to Burning Man a couple years ago. The other one is in Lindsay (1982) and they are trying to steal it from a guy who already put down a deposit.
This blog is about the adventures the girl and that contractor are having and will have from the day of purchase to the transformation of that Airstream and the adventures to be had and the new friends they make along the way.
Why an Airstream? The cool factor of course...here's what they look like inside right now:
After gutting it, it could possibly look like any one of these:
Stay tuned...bidding has already started!
