Introducing Ty Arian (The Silver House)
Our Airstream is a 2014 27-foot International Signature model. We purchased from A to Z Motors in Winters, California with a superb buying experience provided by Vince Cardinale. And given a strong Welsh family roots connection on Julie’s side, we named our silver beauty with an affectionate Welsh moniker.
