That’s right.  Prescott is quickly becoming the destination of choice for Airstreamers “in the know.”  Since I’ve arrived, we’ve hosted some of the “well knowns” in Airstream circles.

  • Rich, Eleanor, & Emma of Airstream Life stayed longer than planned….2 days….yeah right.
  • Gunny has rolled through several times.
  • Bert & Janie Gildart stopped in for well over a week.
  • Brent (ah, I’ll make you use the search feature on my blog) spent a good while here.
  • And now, Terry & Greg have popped in.

A slew of well known Airstream bloggers and plain old Airstreamers have paid a visit to Point of Rocks RV Park.  Beyond blogging and being tech savvy travelers they have another item in common.  They’ve all stayed longer than planned.  Hmmmm…. I once said Prescott had its own vortex, and I stand by it!

Terry (a.k.a TB Rich) and Greg have stopped into Prescott for a while.  They just spent several days down at Dead Horse State Park (Janie & Bert spent some time there), and now they’re revisiting Prescott for the first time in years.  Both commented that the area has changed a lot.  Wait until they take a drive around tomorrow!  Not that I know how much it’s changed.  My friends who’ve lived here for years have told me…..but I’ve seen change in only one year, so I get it.

I’ll include a link to their site tomorrow….I seem to have lost track of it (Terry, send it in e-mail and I’ll link it).  :)

I returned from work tonight and hit my mailbox to see what’s what.  Waiting on a few documents….ah, the exciting parts of live.  One of the park managers, Rick, let me know friends had arrived.  Ah yes, I knew they were coming this morning, but by the end of the work day I forget everything!

I took a ride up to site 65 (a great site….I’d like to move to that one) and met up with Terry & Greg.  They’d just unhitched their 19 ft. Bambi.  Pretty slick.  An 06′ model if I remember correctly.  And it’s a limited edition.  Better interior by far!

We chatted for a bit, I headed home, did the dinner thing, and we met up once more.  I took them out for the standard walk through the Dells (nothing standard about it), and their pups loved it.  Sadie & Annie….two cocker spaniels.  Cute dogs, and they enjoyed the walk.  I kept it mild as I didn’t want the dogs jumping big crevasses.  We still found a view of the surrounding area that was stunning (all the views here are), and I think my new friends enjoyed their initial tour.

Well, that’s it from the Dells.  Long day, and bed rest is necessary.  :)  More tomorrow.  Friday is a day off, but I have an outpatient surgery so we’ll see what I do and don’t do.  :)   Cross your fingers!  :P

  1. Nice pic of the dog! :)

    You are just a hotbed of airstream activity over there in Point of Rocks! You popular son of a gun.

    FYI - we are planning going to the lava river cave near flagstaff on sunday if you guys would care to join. :)

  2. I can’t wait to meet Terry and Greg! I’m sorry I wasn’t able to join you all out on the rocks last night…but, it was the call of the knitting for me instead! (although with all my allergies, and all this nasty wind, and the crazy prescribed burns around Prescott, it’s getting harder for me to be outside right at this moment, and I don’t think you want to carry me and try to take pictures do you?)

    I think that The Point of Rocks would do well to make themselves known as an Airstream destination spot…Their business would certainly doube! ;)

    Ohhhh…Lava River Cave? Sounds like fun!! (I make all my best dates with Tom and DaNece on this blog)

  3. Hey Rich… Very nice pic of Sadie in the wind…we enjoyed your initial tour very much … Thank you! And Greg looks great, too. You really should be working for the Prescott Chamber of Commerce!

    Enjoying ourselves in your great town!

  4. In part those of us who visit Prescott do so because of the area itself. But even more importantly, because of the great host–and hostest (Sadira)–who make it even better.
    Miss the biking, the hiking and great touring. Miss Point of Rocks! Incidentally, we talked abut dynamic lighting, and the new Nikon D300, I’ve recently learned, has a feature in the camera known as D-lighting. I’ve been experimenting and it does seem to help under certain conditions.
    More later…

  5. Glad everyone enjoys the company and the area! Still, I think with or without the Digital RV’s Airstream here, people would still enjoy the area. It drew me in! But I appreciate the compliments. :)

    Bert….I’ve been toying with Kelby’s 7 point system, and playing with my own photos after the lessons. Wow, just amazing stuff. Photos I was already thrilled with can be improved. I’ll be posting soon, but only tidbits. The “biggies” have to be saved for other ventures.

    By the way…..any further experimentation with HDR? I have a better feel for it, but until I have a worthy shot I’m holding off.
