[VAC] Re: I finally got an Airstream!



Thanks for the advice, Terry.  I have a feeling the learning curve is about
to rise pretty steeply, in the next few weeks.   I am still in the "kicking
ideas around" stage, although I'm about to bust with excitement at the idea
of getting on the road and camping.  I have a couple of very large parking
lots nearby in which to practice maneuvering the rig, and I plan to go back
and dig through the archives for information in the next few days and weeks.

One thing I need to ask the group.  In my area, there is a rather large
population of Black Widow spiders (shudder).  We kill the darn things by the
ton in the summer.  Our house and environs are mostly wooded, and the nasty
buggers seem to thrive here.
They particularly love to get up under the covers my husband keeps on his
antique muscle cars.  I have a feeling they are going to be thrilled with
having new "digs" (MY trailer!!!).  Have you guys got any suggestions to
keep them out?  I don't mind the occasional spider, but Black Widows are a
bit much.

I'd be eternally grateful for suggestions,
