Re: Two Questions



Thank you all for the definitions of "courtesy parking", "SOB" and "on 
horseback." Now I feel part of the group.

Yes, I am a SOB owner right now. But I feel that this List is for both 
Airstreamers and SOB owners who are interested in becoming Airstreamers. 
Because I fall into the latter category, I feel I belong here. Notice I *DID 
NOT* say "interested in buying an Airstream." You can make the purchase of an 
Airstream, but does that make you an Airstreamer? No! Same as buying an 
Escapees membership doesn't necessarily make you a SKP in mind, word and deed. 
I don't merely want to buy an Airstream. I want to become an Airstreamer after 
I make the purchase. That means, not only talk the talk, but walk the walk. 
That's why I am here. And that's why I asked about definitions.

As an Airstreamer, I would use courtesy parking, and if I'm parked elsewhere 
and find out short term of a rally going on, I might come on horseback. Isn't 
that what Airstreamers do?
