We stopped, looked in the windows and got the phone number.
The Patriots were playing that day, so we got home, hosted some friends, good times. Better yet - I got a call about the airstream.
We went 2 days later, checked it out and bought it!
It is a 1998 25' Safari in great condition. It was part of an estate sale and the older gentleman that owned it had passed a few months earlier but also had not used it for 3 years.
He was meticulous about the care of the AS and all the bookwork, notes, even dishes, teapots, etc. are still in there. We can use it without any repairs other than a very bad odor which I believe to be a dead creature. It was December when we bought it so until it warms up, we won't be doing anything about it. It seems to be in the bathroom area, I know, it could be a black tank issue but it is empty and hasn't been used for over three years.
We will cover the dinette cushions, probably add new flooring and paint the faux wood cabinets.
Many people don't like the "mouse fur" on the walls but I have seen many tutorials on how to clean it so I'm fine with it.
We can't wait for spring and some great adventures.
