This would be fine if the text would wrap to whatever screen width one’s browser is set to. I don’t like the screen real wide. It makes my eyes hurt to go back and forth across the entire width.

I like it (hence my vote for “Yes, this is a keeper”) but I miss the blogroll. You had some good stuff on there. I think this is a schazzy site, keep doin’ what your doin’.

Bill,

Hey there! Well, the banner actually rotates through about 50 photos. Every time you refresh, hit another page, etc., you will find a new photo. And yes, a few Airstream photos are sprinkled throughout. I’ll be adding more. My intention is to add many photos from my travels over time, and add new photos as well. But keep in mind, full-timing with an Airstream doesn’t always mean travel (like the last 8+ months). More often than not I’m not in the Airstream. Even during my travels.

As Rich L once noted on his Airstream Life blog, it’s funny when people pull into an RV site, put the antenna up, and stay right with their RV. Now that I’m feeling better, I definitely don’t just stick by the Airstream…..

And yes, I’m planning more travel. Thinking about Anza Borrego next month for 4 or 5 days!

Sadira,

Glad you like it!

Rich

Well, the first time I pulled up the new layout, there was a climbing picture of Rich In Shorts…so that’s always a keeper

I actually like picture headers…and the fact that they change with each page load is cool (cause’ you KNOW I had to try it…and it totally worked) the gray background is a nice classy touch as well, plus it sort of matches the Airstream…Your blog layout and design is really up to you…but, I like this one.

I like the basic lay out but if its is going to be titled as Gadgets Airstream Chronicles then it seems to me that you would need a picture of the Airstream in the banner. You might have one with the truck hooked up and rolling down the road somewhere in the pictures you have taken over the years. Just one mans thoughts. I do love the dogs though.
