We had our glamper, Gidget, "gussied up" all the way through Christmas, but had to put her cover on her before it got too cold. She's all bundled up, ice and snow all around, "wrapped up" like a big present to be unwrapped when spring hits. I CAN'T WAIT!
Oh my goodness, we miss her! We've been able to unzip her twice to go in her to make sure all is well, but we aren't using her or hanging out inside the camper like we were.
Went to the RV show yesterday at the convention center...made Spring Fever even worse! Anyone else just giddy at the thought of re-opening their camper for the season?

Nicole, my nickname in junior high was "Gidget." Having you post that brought back so many good memories for me. Now, with that name on your camper you can "take me with you" each trip.

I hear ya, Grace! Expecting almost a foot of snow tomorrow, so I am glad we didn’t open her up yet. Oh! I cant’t wait!
I am missing my “happy” place. I can’t wait to get started on fixing her up. This year, I have to work on the bathroom and the aluminum around all the windows and doors - needs shinin’ up!

Oh Grace! Adorable!!!!
I was worried with the big storm last week something would land on Gidget. She’s all good. I cant wait to get inside and set everything up again!

I don't have a camper to glamp in but it sounds like such fun. I feel envious, but I do have a little cabin we go to about three tenths of a mile away on our property. It will have to serve as a glamper without wheels.

Finally the wait is over, we just found a 1963 Yellowstone and that little sweetie came home with us last week! I can't believe she's sitting the in the driveway...sometimes I just go out and peek inside to make sure she's real. The weather has been crazy...snow, tornado warnings, more snow, nearly 3 inches of rain, so she's covered up nice and snug. Can't wait to really enjoy her! I'm thinking of naming her Maizy...what do you think?

Thanks for the good wishes...any and all advice is welcome! She's in good shape - the owners only took her out twice in 5 years and only wanted to sell her for what they had put in...lucky me! The interior/exterior were painted last year and she came with new turquoise seat fabric and red curtains. I just need to put my own spin on her...the fun part! I'm not a girly-girl, so I took out the lace, pink, and doilies...I'm thinking retro red/turquoise/white, maybe cherries? Will swing by all your blogs for inspiration!

I can’t wait to get to work on my little 63 Scottsman , I named Mary Jane!! I also have a Facebook page called Strange Art & Vintage Finds w/ Mary Jane, where I post my art, antiques and Glamper parts for sale. I am so excited about joining the sisterhood and making new friends! MyMary Jane should be almost done by the end of spring and I want to travel to different festivals and shows around Pigeon Forge TN where I live to Mobile Al where I have my home and family there , the beach festivals are what I’m looking for forward to since I have been in TN the last couple years. I can’t wait to see all of your Glampers.

Mary! How exciting!!! Congrats and have lots of fun. She is adorable.
We’ve got JANUARY weather and it is KILLING ME!!!!!
I did get to finish off the bathroom. It’s all done (posting photo in another thread I already started on camper bathrooms).
We had one warm day and we took advantage of it. Set everything up inside and out and PLAYED! Hubs and dd were home so we picnicked in front of the camper, and hung out all day in the sun! I was so happy!
You can tell how happy I am in that pic. It was a great family day.
Back to cold. Even my garden is behind because it is just too cold. My chickens don’t even want to come out!

Nicole, thanks for the kind words...I still can't believe she's sitting in the driveway. I have to admit I go out and take a peek inside to make sure she's real! When I finish the sprucing up I want to do inside, I'll post photos. The weather has been crazy in Ohio too...last Friday so warm we had windows open, then this week snow and icy winds. That's okay though...as much a I want to glamp, I have oodles of spring cleaning to do, yardwork can wait!

Nicole---this camper is absolutely beautiful. I love the colors. No wonder you love glamping---you are really camping in style. Everything looks so neat and pretty.
