I was just talking to my wife yesterday about how the "Mass Production" blimps don't really fit our needs and I was gonna look into building one up myself.

I mean I'm pretty good at blowing up balloons and this seems pretty similar.

Maybe we can go 'halves' on a home-made blimp! Can we park it at your house though?

Well the HOA is kinda picky but after a little investigating. It definitly restricts storage of motorhomes, trailers etc but ther is no mention of "Blimp" or "airship" storage storage so I think were good to go...

Again we agree.

I was very impressed with the site also.

Here's another that I think is great. (Belongs to a friend of mine.)
