Welcome To JacknDiane.net
Hey there! We’re Jack and Diane Noel. We picked up our Airstream, 27’FBQ Flying Cloud, in December of 2021. We then started traveling, building confidence, and learning the basics. Also, the NRVTA training was invaluable, providing additional knowledge. Each trip was a lesson, paving the way for future adventures.
Each year, we explored destinations further away from home. Each trip offered new experiences and skills, keeping us motivated. Every mile added fresh scenery, stories, and a deeper love for traveling.
From nervous beginners to seasoned travelers, we’ve grown confident and comfortable going wherever our hearts take us. Every experience has shaped us into confident adventurers. Every challenge has turned into a lesson, and every destination has become a cherished memory.
Now we’re excited to plan longer trips, checking off our bucket list destinations and turning our dreams into reality. The road ahead is full of possibilities, and we can’t wait to embrace them.
Our website documents our adventures, showcasing the cool stuff we’ve seen and done. Sometimes, we revisit these amazing places we’ve visited over the past few years, reliving the joy of our travels.
We have traveled in our Airstream for 3 1/2 years now. At the end of May 2025, we will pick up our new 2025 Airstream 28RB Classic. We are very excited about the adventures that we will have in this new rig.
