So this is how the silver slipper began. We have good friends that have been camping for several years now. Jim would blog about what they were doing, where they were, and every time I read what they were doing I wanted to be camping with them. So two years ago we went camping with them to Door County WI. This trip we took a pop up camper. Needless to say we had a blast with them. The next year, 2009 we decided to go with them to So. Dakota. This time we rented a class C motor home.. One sunny July afternoon Mike and I were having cocktails on the patio and started talking about maybe getting a RV for ourselves. Well, needless to say we got on e-bay and found the 1973 Airstream. After a couple of anxious days waiting she was ours. Adam went to pick her up for us. Her body was in great shape but, like most of us, needed a little update.
Without Rod she would not be the beauty she is now. Once he got inside he found many things wrong, plumbing, wiring, gray tank, you name it. She had to be gutted. Almost one year later she is almost ready for her first trip.
I decided she needed a name and yes that's how The Silver Slipper got her name.
Congratulations Cindy... she's a beaut'!!
