Here she is!

New York moment.

Update

Update: Just the (Astonishing) Facts:

Sunday: Alb any New York: Slept in & enjoyed Continental Breakfast (light yogurt, ½ slice whole grain toast)

Gllens Falls: Houston: We have landed! Arrived at Airstream, conditional still questionable, a dilapidated bucket or a classic from a bygone era. Some things work; some things don’t, but it STARTS!!!!!

Buy battery. Jeep runs. Test it out in quick trip to nearby tourists, historical haven of Lake George.

Drive back to Albany….return rental car. Now it’s just 2 guys, a jeep, an Airstream, and 3000 miles to go.

Back in Glens Falls. It’s time. We’re actually going to do it. For tonight, we’re heading to nearby campground. We’re off!

Half mile later: Hank pulled over by Policeman. 20 minutes later policeman says good luck.

20 Minutes Later. It’s dark. We’re camped at the lovely Moreau State Park & fire is blazing.
But right after fire has just warmed up enough to toast a hotdog we’re asleep.

Saturday, June 5, 5:00 P.M.
Safely arrived in N.Y. City. (Not pictured: Mobbing fans)

Breaking News!!

From James' comment:

"Well, we found out that this thing actually runs...to think we were flying out Satarday not even knowing if it would start."

And so the mission continues, well-oiled and planned, we take off in less than a dozen hours.

Planning

A journey such as this doesn't just happen. Consider this: Did Amundsen reach the South Pole without extreme preparation? Did Columbus sail into the Bahamas by sheer accident? Did Armstrong step on the moon without the full power of NASA in support?

So will James and Hank cross the country unprepared? Not those two! It would be hard to find two other guys with the attention to detail and the focus those two possess.

So in the spirit of preparation, here is the packing list. Is there anything missing?

Plane tickets

Wallet

Camera

Computer

Clothes for at least a week.

Reading material

Map!!!

Sleeping bag.

Towel, toothbrush, shaver, etc.

Phone

High Praise

If anyone can accomplish this, if America is still a place of dreams and hope, if the Airstream will even run...then there is one American out there who can pull this off, and it is you. Godspeed soldier!

James

Ever the master-negotiator, he leads the expedition to retrieve his father's legendary Airstream. The decisions he makes, just possibly may change Airstream history.

Hank

The brother-in-law who innocently agreed to go along for the ride. Who knows where this will lead to.
