Melissa likes to read historical novels, Wired magazine and absolutely anything about Airstreams. Baking things made of chocolate, oatmeal cookies and berry pies. Watching scary movies and then being too scared to go the camp bathrooms by herself (Thanks Roman!). Eating spicy foods (especially Thai), dim-sum (with Dad in Chinatown was the best), gummy candies, drinking GOOD dark roast coffee in the mornings and hot tea before bed. Occasionally remembers to take the time to meditate and enjoy the present. Likes to go snowboarding and to Shambhala Mtn Center to meditate and sleep in a dusty old army tent while mice eat her backpack. Loves Airstream rallies with the SNU and meeting fellow Airstreamers on the road.
“A human being should be able to change a diaper, plan an invasion, butcher a hog, conn a ship, design a building, write a sonnet, balance accounts, build a wall, set a bone, comfort the dying, take orders, give orders, cooperate, act alone, solve equations, analyze a new problem, pitch manure, program a computer, cook a tasty meal, fight efficiently, die gallantly. Specialization is for insects.” ~ Robert Heinlein
“A true villain is always preferable to a fake hero” ~ Tom Robbins
Roman is an avid surfer (this is why we bought the first Airstream) who loves warm water, sunny days and streams full of wild fish.
He is a loan officer and builder by day and an amateur pyromaniac (campfires with him can be scary) by night. He says of late the he is fly fishing his way through his mid-life crisis. He loves to go Fly fishing for trout (catch and release only) and someday hopes to go “Steelheading” up north. He hopes to someday to discover a his life’s calling and simultaneously find a place to live where there is warm water to surf in and plenty of fish to catch.
Indy is a 13 year old Jack Russell who thinks he is a pit bull. He loves to hunt bugs or anything smaller than he is. He can jump six feet vertically when he is chasing something and is surprisingly fast. His favourite treat is whatever is on the bbq or on your plate. He loves long walks on the beach, chewing through leashes, playing keep-away, cuddling, barking at squirrels and laying in the sun. We think he likes camping in the Airstream too.
