It is also Breast Cancer Awareness Month!! I have to admit that I haven't paid much attention to this because cancer doesn't run in my family and I have no relatives that have ever had breast cancer. The awareness part of the program though alerted me to the FACT that 80% of breast cancer diagnosis' do not have a family relationship to the disease! Whoa! That's staggering and shook me out of complacency and made me make an appointment for a mammogram. </span></strong><br />

<strong><span style="font-family: Courier New;">My favorite Ohio RV dealership and sponsor of Girl Campers, "Camper College" program, Haydocy Airstream of Columbus, Ohio, is taking their support for women campers to a whole new level with their October campaign to support the Susan B Komen Foundation through the sale of their Tab trailers! Tab trailers has a "Tabitha" model trailer designed by the talented Mary Jane Butters from Mary Jane's Farm Magazine. The sweet Tab is "girly"! It has the touch of femininity that we girl campers appreciate. Haydocy has taken the Tabitha and "pinked" it for Breast Cancer Awareness month. For every sale of this special model Tab, Haydocy will donate $250 in the buyers name to the Susan B Komen Foundation. </span></strong><br />

I want to make sure my 'girls' are aware of the dangers of this disease. If I can do something to make that happen, I am happy to do so." </span></strong><br />

RV Family Travel Atlas Fall Rally! <div align="center">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">I hate to see the camping season end and each year I extend it a little further into fall. This year I am winding up the season at the RV Family Travel Atlas Rally at the Philadelphia/Westchester KOA the weekend of October 23 and 24th. I attended the first ever RV Family Travel Atlas rally in the spring of this year and met some really great new camping buddies. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">This trip is going to be a winner for my husband who, by trade, is a home inspector with a specialty in historic homes. We used to live in a house constructed in 1749 with additions in 1850 and 1905. My husbands hobby and new passion though is landscape painting which makes the Philadelphia/Westchester KOA the ideal spot to 'camp like a family' for us. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">This campground is in the beautiful Brandywine Valley which is home to Longwood Gardens and Winterthur Museum. I really want to get to the Winterthur Museum and Gardens in Winterthur, Delaware which is a 25 minute ride from the campground. I have always wanted to go there and even though it is less than two hours from home and, last year had a beautiful exhibit of the Downton Abbey costumes, I have yet to make it down there. In addition to the stunning gardens and grounds there is a DuPont built family manse that is now the museum. It is always fun to see how those blessed with extreme wealth lived in the days before the words carbon foot print even existed. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia;">In addition to that there are the Longwood Gardens which I have been to in the past but never in the fall. Longwood is, according to their website, a "horticultural display garden created by Pierre DuPont in the 19th century". It too has a magnificent home/mansion attached to it. It looks like a starter castle compared to the "home" at Winterthur though. It is only 15 minutes from the campground in the same direction as Winterthur if you are hearty enough to do both in one day.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia;"> I won't be doing that because my husband feels that once he has paid his admission fee he is somehow obliged to read every single little placard explaining every single little detail of mansion life. Our children have flat out refused to accompany him to museums anymore! I just endure and get the headphones tour so I can avoid what my grandmother called the "Pete and Repeat" syndrome. Here's how it works...Rick and I are standing side by side behind the velvet ropes with our maps and brochures in hand in a group of fellow curiosity seekers. The tour guide says, "The fireplace mantle came from a castle in Europe that was pillaged by torch wielding villagers and an agent of the duPonts was able to secure it at the fire sale and bring it here for their castle." The head nodding group begins moving to the next fortuitous acquisition and Rick turns to me and says, "Hey honey, the fireplace mantle came from a castle in Europe that was pillaged by torch wielding villagers and an agent of the duPonts was able to secure it at a fire sale and bring it here!!! How cool is that?" After thirty two years of stereophonic museum tours I have now developed a system that is fool proof. I pay for the headphone version of the tour and every time Rick tries to repeat to me what we all just heard, I gesture kindly, pointing at my headphone covered ears to signal that I am listening to a segment and can't chat right now. This is fool proof because there is no danger of Rick springing for the headphones himself. He has been asking since he turned 40 how old you have to be to get the senior discount! With the advent of the headphone option, I am now safe to enjoy the tour without back up! </span><br />

It's no secret that I think the Riverside Retro is a great alternative to a vintage camper. The Sisters on the Fly had a hand in designing a Sister on the Fly model and I have been pleading with my friends who are connected to the manufacturer to help me persuade them to build me a custom Riverside Retro for my upcoming summer of 2016 tour of National Parks!! After rebuilding 10 vintage trailers and camping for the last ten years in vintage ones, I know exactly what I like and don't like in floor plans and design choices! Now, if only I could get someone to build me my dream trailer!! </div>

Haydocy Airstream and Janine Pettit, Girl Camper, will be hosting a Camper College on Friday, September 18, 2015. If you have ever thought about joining the Girl Campers but don't know a thing about owning, operating or towing a travel trailer, please be our guests at this complimentary event. The staff at Haydocy will take us through all the steps involved in hitching up a trailer, getting the systems working once you arrive at a campground and what is involved when you are ready to leave. A question and answer session will take place after the demo and light refreshments will be served. <br />

These Camper College events are designed to help those considering an RV purchase gain knowledge and confidence. The RV dealerships that I partner with are carefully chosen and have a supreme reputation for service. They understand that they are building partnerships of trust and that the immediate "sale" is not the goal. Successful RV dealerships know that "service" is an ongoing commitment and relationships with buyers extend past the contract stage of purchase. I believe that any dealership whose buyers hail from 39 different states has got a reputation that precedes them! That is Haydocy!<br />
<br />
I have been working with Haydocy Airstream for several years and came to know them through their appearances at the Country Living Fair. Like most people, I harbor the Airstream dream! The team at Haydocy has opened their doors to the Girl Campers for after hours demonstrations and given us the grand tour of their line up of Airstreams and, the ever popular with Girl Campers, the Tab trailers. <br />

Sisters in law and trouble, Cindy Smith Pritchett and Donna Pritchett Smith! Confused? Donna married Cindy's brother in 1979 and Cindy returned the favor by marrying Donna's brother in 1980! They have been joined at the hip ever since sharing the same in laws, grandparents and owning children who are double cousins! It was only natural that they should become glamping partners. When Cindy joined the SOTF and bought a 1971 Play-Moor to cart behind her on all of her adventures, she naturally wanted her life long side kick to join her. </div>

Bella, the 1971 Play-Moor that Donna and Cindy play with! Although the trailer literally belongs to Cindy, it is actually thought of as "their" trailer. Sisters, on the fly and in families, are generous by nature. </div>

Sisters on the Fly<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">One of the many things that I think makes Sisters on the Fly the best group ever is their commitment to works of charity! Paying it forward and helping those in need! Who wouldn't want to do that? Several times in the past generous and warm hearted sisters have donated their time and talents for great causes. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">Sisters on the Fly has been a partner with Casting for Recovery, a not for profit organization that helps women recovering from breast cancer, for many years. At sister on the fly camp outs generous sisters raise money among themselves by raffling off what I call "Sistertastic" trailer finds. Every once in a while though that generosity is exceeded by a phenomenal donation like this 1957 Mercury "Quicksilver" vintage trailer donated by Jennifer Smith. It has been beautifully restored by Kent Kraemer at Blue Moon Caravans in Missoula, Montana. Thank you Kent! In addition to all of that it has been beautifully decorated by our very own sister on the fly "trailer whisperer", Kristin Manas. Job well done Kristin! It really speaks to me and I think she has expertly enhanced the classic charm of this Birchwood Beauty!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"> These trailers are harder to come by everyday and having one ready to roll usually involves a big investment! A $25 tax deductible chance could win you this piece of nostalgia though!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">Can't become a girl camper because you can't have a trailer wherever it is that you live? No room in the budget for an RV purchase right now? No problem! While the trailer is a big draw for many women, for me it is just the icing on the cake. If I didn't have one, I would still camp. It is about the camping and not what you're camping in. It's about friendship and going places and doing things. </span><br />

Morning coffee in camping PJ's is a staple at Girl Camping events. Before you know it, it's noon! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia;">There are many women who camp without owning a trailer. Most campgrounds have cabin rentals and often there is a Girl Camper wannabe willing to share the cost. There is always the tried and true tent brought to new life and comfort with a woman's touch.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">There are also the really brave at heart who don't care what they sleep in as long as they get to come for all the Girl Camper fun and they sleep in their cars! There are also some who come along and stay in a nearby B&B. That's not really camping, but I won't tell if you don't. </span></span><br />

There are many times when women who own campers choose to tent camp or car camp because the drive is too far or they are nearby without their trailers and don't want to back track to get them. Who cares what you are sleeping in as long as you are along for the ride. </div>

I have discovered in my almost ten years camping with these amazing women that attitude is the difference between those who embrace life and those who endure life. I want all the women who think that this looks like fun but there are too many obstacles for them to be able to do it, that adopting a can do attitude will propel you forward. Take one weekend of your year and make some new friends. You don't know what impact it will have on the rest of the things you do! <br />

To refresh, Camper College is a free evening after hours tutorial on all things ''travel trailer" related. As Kevin Stone, second generation owner of Stones Camping World pointed out last night, there are no dumb questions. It was just great having all their knowledge and expertise available to those entering into the camping world for the first time or maybe, like me, returning to it, sans the tent! </span><br />

One of the things that newbie trailer owners worry most about is the trailer actually falling off of the hitch. Here Kevin takes us through the process one step at a time. This is standard operating procedure at their dealership for all new owners. You don't leave with it until you are completely comfortable with each step. </div>

What is Camper College? Camper College is a complimentary evening of demonstrations and Q & A at an RV dealership. The event is designed to help alleviate anxiety and answer questions about owning and operating a travel trailer. Whenever I am at events, I always hear the same concerns being expressed by women. "I don't think I could hook that up!" "I would be afraid it would fall off the car." "How does the electric get to it at the campground?" "How do I back it up?" "Where does the toilet empty out to?" "How do I set it up once I get where I am going?" These are all legitimate questions and I am working to find dealerships who are interested in building partnerships and mentoring women entering the RV world.<br />
<br />
We recently did a Camper College at Ketelsen Campers of Colorado in Wheat Ridge. They were selected by RV Business Magazine as one of the Top Five RV dealerships in North America for 2015. They did a phenomenal job at their Camper School and the feedback I received was stellar. Ketelsen's knows that they are building relationships with women who are coming into the RV world for the first time or perhaps for the first time as a solo. It was reported to me by many that they felt no sales pressure and a genuine concern for and attitude of, "how can we put you at ease?" Thank you Ketelsens and Stones Camping World for leading the girl camping charge in NJ!!!<br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">Going places and doing things was so much fun this past weekend when Go RVing hosted us at the Country Living Fair in Rhinebeck, NY. The beautiful Hudson Valley was as appealing as always and the Duchess County Fairgrounds were their usual manicured perfection. Stella Shows makes it all look so easy. They have been producing this show for almost ten years with events in Columbus, Ohio; Atlanta, Georgia; Rhinebeck, NY and this year as a first timer, Nashville, TN. All my favorite vendors were there and I managed to get a little shopping in. It was all about the people though and as always, meeting and chatting with new friends was the best part of the show. I think we recruited a few new "girl campers"! </span><br />

Every once in a while our amazingly talented sister "Q" does a trailer rehab and although she always wants to keep them, her husband thinks six trailers is too many! Some people "get it" and some people don't! This trailer was "for sale" this year. Completely ready to roll with all the hard work done. A lucky new sister, Kathy, took her home! </div>

At every Country Living Fair I have to get to one of my favorite booths, "Hi Ho Home Market!" I love everything about her booth. Creative designer, Stylist and entrepreneur Heidi Hill-Haddard (we have the same maiden name! ) creates a space that draws you in! I kept getting drawn in over many things but mostly this vintage plaid suitcase on wheels! If it is red, I like it. If it's red and plaid, I love it! If it's red, plaid and wool, I'm done! More on this hardworking lady coming soon! </div>

The Country Living Fair is so much fun each year. We meet the best people and have made all kinds of friends along the way. If you have never been to a Country Living Fair you still have two chances in 2015. Columbus, Ohio, September 18-20 and Atlanta, Georgia, October 23-25. I will be in Columbus and will be hosting a Camper College at Haydocy Airstream on Saturday, September 19th.</div>

First ever East Coast Camp Like a Girl event! You don't have to know "how" to camp and you don't have to have a tricked out vintage trailer. You do not have to belong to an existing girl camping group. What you do have to have is a desire to be part of this sub culture of crazy women who like to dress up, sleep away from home, hike, kayak, go junkin', cook great meals and make new friends!! If you have been stalking Pinterest and Facebook watching all the fun these women are having and not knowing how to get on board, here's your big chance to try it out!! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia;">Here's how simple it is! Join the Meet Up site, "Camp Like a Girl" and register for this event. Details are posted there. It will take place Oct 2-4 in Central New Jersey. Actual location is for members of Camp Like a Girl only! Make your reservations now as the park is a county park and fills up quickly. There are 64 sites and tents and trailers can share a site to save on costs. There are also three cabins that sleep six each. Grab five girlfriends and come! </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia;"> How is a girl camper different than a 'regular' camper? Most women make a home no matter where they are. We like comfort and we like company and we like to be surrounded by things that we love, even when we are camping!!! Notice the red table? It folds down into a suitcase! They were made in the 40's and 50's and came with picnic gear in them. They are hard to come by but after an exhaustive search (on Ebay! and elsewhere) my friend Pam found one at an Ohio estate sale and called me from the sale asking me if she should pick it up and mail it to me. Only one catch, it was $75! Without hesitating I said YES! Paired with my $5 vintage Coleman lantern that means I only paid $40. Girl Camper Math! </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia;"> I love anything that is red! Add polka dots or plaid and I'm in love! This trailer belongs to a sister on the fly and I took these pictures at the Rocky Mountain Hi Meet Up in Wyoming last summer on my way to Cowgirl College. So much eye candy! </span></div>

<span style="line-height: 1.2em;"><span style="font-family: Georgia;">When I am at RV shows and meet women who want to become "girl campers" there are so many questions! Ketelsens kindly hosted nearly 50 women in April for an evening event to answer those questions and provide hands on demonstrations. As many as did come, there were many sending regrets that the date didn't work for them so Ketelsens is repeating the offer! A noon time cook out is being provided to boot! Bring your hubby along, there might be a toy hauler he likes!! </span></span></div>

Lots of questions. As good teachers will always say, "There's no such thing as a silly question." In an effort to get those questions answered by those in the know, I partnered with Ketelsen Campers of Colorado to invite women wanting to learn the do's and don'ts of trailer travel. </span><br />

If you did not grow up camping you will have lots of questions regarding the propane tank. Do I shut it off while I am driving? (Yes!) Can it leak? How long does one tank last? How do I turn it on and off? Can it fall of the trailer while I am driving? A Ketelsen employee explains! <br />

The Riverside Retro Trailer is behind Randy. I will admit to an unapologetic partiality to this trailer! If you can't redo a vintage trailer and want most of the charm of vintage without the worries, this is the trailer for you! I see one in my future. <br />

And your trailers!! <span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">
</span><br />
<a name='more'></a><span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">It is true that the Sisters on the Fly attract "doers"! One such ball of creative energy is our dear Georgia sister Swanee Owen! I have loved, loved, loved every trailer Swanee has ever done. She has got the trailer bug baaaaad! She just keeps doing them and doing them! Here are a few pictures of my new "favorite" Swanee trailer. It will be hard to knock this one off my pedestal! </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"> <span style="background-color: #dddddd;">Of course we have to have the "before" shot! It would really take some vision to look at this and imagine a refuge could be created in it! </span></span><br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"> Swanee hired a local artist to create her vision of a "Rusty Ritz"! Here he is with his girlfriend showing off the finished product. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"> Before all this painting took place a lot of prep work went in to making the trailer water tight and prepping the skin to receive the new paint. This just looks old but it was all sanded, sealed and primed. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"> Ah! The front couch rebuilt to accommodate a guest. I love the storage underneath! The "tin" baskets under the couch are actually plastic that has been faux painted. Swanee installed hidden hooks that hold a large bungee cord horizontally across the space to keep them in place when she is towing. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"> Over the wheel well this clever storage trick which doubles as a night stand. Check out all the yard sticks Swanee collected for this project. She bought 50 of them from a dealer on Ebay who said he was getting out of the yardstick business and might send her a few extra. He sent her 500! She stained them different colors! </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"> Swanee created a dry kitchen and repurposed the metal suitcase for her paper towels. The rusty old cheese grater is a lamp and that is the actual panel box for the trailer. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"> In case you haven't guessed that orange flowered table cloth is hiding the porta potty! <br />The garbage can to the left sits on an old rusty metal lid that Swanee bought for five dollars and attached the legs to. When she is traveling the bucket goes in the back of her tow vehicle and holds all of her extension cords. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"> I thought this was so clever. The hardwood floor is actually a sheet of plywood that Swanee's husband sawed these lines in to give the illusion of hardwood planks. He actually set his circular saw to a shallow depth and ran it along a fence every six inches to get these lines! I love that! Distressed paint job finishes the look! </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"> More yardsticks! Not sure how many she used but they look great! Allof the linens were beat up old cutter quilts that she cleaned and patched for a "make do" mentality. I love them and am really partial to old beat up quilts myself.

One of the perks of large families is that in a crisis, it's "all hands on deck" and that is how it played out with my dads illness. My five living siblings and my late brothers sons all rotated shifts in Texas assisting my mom with household jobs, getting prescriptions filled, attending doctors appointments, shopping for, preparing and serving anything we could get into my dad whose stomach inexplicably quit working in August. Having been surrounded his whole life with "kids, kids and more kids", being alone never sat well with my dad. He didn't like being overnight in the hospital by himself and so we never left him there alone, not even one night of the over two months he spent there. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"> I was on a Texas shift when it was determined that Dad needed a feeding tube and this "slam dunk" procedure was the way to go. I was all set up with one of those cozy hospital chairs that turns into a really narrow and hard "bed". Dad was uncomfortable but predictably stoic and upbeat. Complications set in and what was suppose to be a two night stay turned into three weeks. I entertained my dad with slide shows of my vintage trailer overhaul projects on my laptop and my cowgirl adventures in Wyoming last August. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">We got a routine going. I got the paper first thing in the morning and then secured two cups of coffee although, Dad never really could get the coffee down. I got him one anyway and kept telling myself, "It's the new normal". We talked about our family vacations and our favorite campgrounds. We talked about our favorite memories and the silly stories that became family legend. Fundy on Sundy, not Mundy, referring to our trip to the Bay of Fundy. Rest stop picnics and peaches from roadside stands. Endless hours of singing rounds of 99 bottles of beer on the wall and Hey Lidi Lidi Lo. "Let's keep it down to a college roar" was just one of my dads favorite phrases, frequently repeated for my moms sake more than his. Dad always seemed impervious to noise. So many wonderful memories surfaced as we killed time, instinctively knowing it was to be treasured more than ever. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">We were "camping" at Baylor now though. I kept the camp kitchen tidy with all the leftover saltine packets and confiscated creams, sugars and unopened jell-o's that I secured from the collected trays waiting in the hallway to go back down to the kitchen. My dad got a big charge out of my covert operation to pick up supplies for a possible dry spell. When I would come back to the room he'd ask, "how'd you do"? I would report my haul and install the booty in our little "kitchen". We had so many wonderful talks in those weeks, mostly in the middle of the night. I was blessed with really wonderful parents who loved each other and us. My dad was a full of life dad who played the guitar and banjo and was always up for a sing along. Our house was a gathering space for anyone who rang the bell. I never went to bed one night as a kid feeling afraid. I always knew in my gut there was nothing to fear; Dad had everything under control. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">In those weeks camping at Baylor my dad kept saying to me, "I can't say enough about how good my kids have been to me". We can't say enough about how good he always was to us. He reaped what he sowed. Every second of caring for him was a gift to me and my siblings. God called him home on December 8th. To the last he had us all laughing. My wonderful nephew Matt wanted to put a clean shirt on him a few hours before he died. Matt said, "put your hands up Papa so I can put a clean shirt on you". When he raised his hands in the air for Matt to remove the dirty shirt he said, "Don't shoot me Sherriff! I'll go peacefully". He did go peacefully a few hours later with all of us who loved him so much surrounding him. The leader of our band walked them golden stairs and now waits for us. We will never stop missing him. He was the center of our lives. He gave us the gift of music which lives on in our family. My dad was never happier than when all the kids and grandkids were gathered with their "gitboxes" and the opening song, "Rock Island Line" was played. His presence will always be felt at every gathering, every campfire sing-a-long and every time I pick up a tool and remember all he taught me. The man who measured wood to the 64th of an inch will be measured by the love and stability he gave us, the habits he instilled in us and the amount of undiluted good will he had for every person he ever met.</span><br />

My dad spent a lifetime making people happy with his gift of music. He was given this Gibson banjo as a gift from his father for his 40th birthday. He had always played the guitar but tackled this new instrument with his usual "can do" attitude. </div>

Here is a link to Go RVing's blog on the sisters on the fly who will be attending the Country Living Fair at Stone Mountain Park in Georgia this weekend. So much trailer happiness! I am leaving for the fair on Wednesday and can't wait to see the 80 sisters attending. I will also be camping in my new Lake House trailer for the second time! Took her overnight this past weekend and have lots of work to do for a long trip! Didn't even have a bottle opener on board! <br />

Here are a few pictures that didn't fit on Go RVing's Sneak Preview! <br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">I just had to add to this and post all the details that make these trailers so special.

This is so clever. I wish I remember who made it so I could credit her! A lampshade frame with a single bulb hanging in the center and then hand crocheted lace attached with baubles and broaches accenting it. That's how to camp like a girl. </td></tr>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">When I was in Buffalo, Wyoming last August to attend Cowgirl Boot Camp at the Willow Creek Ranch, I had the opportunity to stop in and have lunch at the Occidental Hotel in Buffalo with about 80 sisters on the fly attending their annual, Rocky Mountain Hi gathering. It was great meeting so many sisters I "see" on Facebook but I really was just chomping at the bit to see all those trailers in one place. There is so much detail, love and personality in each trailer. I can see why so many women end up having more than one! I just had to share the love. </span></div>

When a good wife suggests to her husband that even though she <em>does not</em> camp, really <em>isn't planning</em> on camping, but loves those glamped up trailers all over Pinterest; a smart husband gets right on that! That is what my new FB friend Kim's sweet husband Bryan did. He first took her to see all the new ones available at RV dealerships. Bryan though just didn't seem to understand that she didn't want granite counters and dark cabinets. It seemed silly to pay 20K for a brand new trailer and then rip it all apart. When Bryan saw a 1984 Citation on Craigslist he made an appointment and took Kim over to see it. They were so impressed by the condition of the trailer and by the owners pride in it. He had taken out the front couch and installed two comfy "TV watching" chairs for his wife and himself. Other than that it was in near mint original condition.<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

The trailer had been lovingly and meticulously maintained. Bryan thought, "Great! It's ready to use" , and he agreed to pay the full asking price; $5.00! </h2>

I really like that this trailer has an actual "bedroom". </div>
<br />
The first thing Kim did was pull off all of the doors and drawers and prime everything with Kilz primer paint and then whitewash the entire trailer in Eggshell. It was hard to do this because the trailer was in excellent original condition. A vinyl peel and stick floor that looked like wood and was very similar in color to the kitchen counter and table was the next install to be made. It took Kim 3 hours to do this by herself. <br />

It all began with the quilt! Pinterst inspired, Kim shopped the fabric stores for fabrics that reminded her of the quilts her grandmother made when she was young. She was so pleased with how it turned out that she used it as the jump off for the accessories, including the beautiful pillows she made in her embroidery business and the southern belle pillowcases she embroidered by hand for the bed. I think it is so inviting. </div>

<br />
I am sending along the link to my blog post for Go RVing. It is a starting point for those who want to know exactly how to become a girl camper. Sometimes you just have to jump in. There are those that wade into a pool adjusting to the temperature a few inches at a time and there are those that don't even dip a toe in first; they just dive! When you make this Sister on the Fly dive there will be 5000 women clapping and yelling and offering you a helping hand and an adult beverage! Just jump! We promise to catch you....<br />

This is the seam on the roof where the two roof panels come together. There are barely visible screws there where you know there will be wood underneath. In my case when I had this camper gutted I sistered a piece of wood to the existing piece because I knew I was going to do this. If your ceiling is not ripped down inside the chances of catching wood on or right next to this seam are good. You can do a pilot hole first to see if you hit something. Be sure to caulk it after you do. </div>

This is the C Channel that I bought from my trailer guy and we added a full strip of butyl tape to it before installing it on the ceiling with #8 stainless steel screws. </div>

You can see that I butted the C Channel up to the existing seam where I added the support wood underneath. I think it would be possible to install this on top of the seam that is already there if you are unable to add wood from inside. </div>

Once that channel is installed I want to get the measurement for the actual awning length. I placed the end of the tape measure into the channel and tape it in place. This saves on multiple trips up and down the ladder as well as swearing! </div>

The finished width of this particular awning needed to be between 74 and 76 inches. There is room for error here. The trailer is 78 inches wide and I think I cut the C Channel at 76 inches. I left room here to roll the seam over twice for a nice finished edge. </div>

I did the extra step here of sewing down the inner seam one more time at the top 12 inches. I do this because once the rod pocket is sewed and you try to insert the rod, it can get hung up on even a little piece of fabric that can fold over. Small step that saves aggravation.</div>

I use threaded 1/2 inch steel rods from Lowes for the inside. I like the way that the threading grips the interior of the fabric but you can use the specific awning material if you want. This costs less than $2 though and does the same thing. In addition to that I don't have to order it, wait for it and pay shipping. Winning! </div>

I made the rod pocket sleeve from the salvaged fabric that I cut off the sides when I reduced the width. I cut a 10 inch width of fabric and made a tube which I then turned inside out and pressed. </div>

I drew a pencil line 10 inches from the bottom all the way across the fabric so that I could use it as a guide to sew the rod pocket down, first across the bottom on the line and then just by smoothing it across I sewed the top of it down. I then added fringe to the overhang. </div>

These are the flag poles that I installed on the outside to receive the awning piping. I like these because the angle is adjustable and the water runs through them at the attachment point. I did put butyl tape behind them too. Because I knew I would be adding these I installed added wood from the interior while the walls were off inside. They are fairly close to the edge though so I think you could hit wood with the two outside screws if you are installing after the fact. Once the poles are in, I tighten them with the set screw attached. The hole is for a larger pipe but I did not want that weight. I have had no trouble with the smaller pipe in this tube. </div>

Even I didn't think I would <em><strong>never</strong></em> renovate a trailer again but the plan was to take a longer break than 6 weeks!! Trailers have a way of popping up though and this classic 1966 Go Tag Along was right here in my own town. I couldn't resist. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia;">The plan from now on is to just gut them. Now that I have done it once I think it is easier and it gives me more peace of mind when I sell them. I can tell the buyer that I replaced absolutely everything! </span><br />

After my dear hubby pulled out the back wall, the wood "supporting" the wall over the windows disintegrated in his hands. The leak stemmed from the running lights. Even if it seems as if there is no water coming in the lights should be taken off every few years and new buytl tape put on . This is preferrable to just caulking them. </div>

And here is a sneak peak at the inspiration for the new interior. Just a hint. Lots of work to do before the fun part!! </div>

They can't imagine doing that. In overcoming this objection (which is really fear) I want to first focus on the bewildering aspect. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">Everything that we don't know how to do holds a sense to us, that there is some secret skill or God given attribute that the person who knows how to do it has that we don't. Those who are not athletic are in awe of people willing to run 26 miles for fun. If you can't make it to the mailbox without rapid heartbeat the idea of becoming a marathon runner yourself seems impossible. The thing to remember is that the runner did not wake up one morning and run 26 miles. There is a START point in all new things and with towing it is this. </span><span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"></span><br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">Adopt the<strong><em> attitude</em></strong> that you will learn how to do this and you will be successful at it. I learned a great deal of skills from my dad who was, and still is, a classic 1960's dad who did all the home repairs and renovations himself. I oftened helped him in his basement workshop and even as a kid I can remember thinking that my dad, who was not a carpenter by trade, knew how to do a lot things that he was not employed at doing. I asked him one day how he knew that he could make all the kitchen cabinets in our house and his reply <strong><em>changed my life! </em></strong> He said, "Well...I looked at the guy who does this for a living and I said to myself...when he gets up in the morning he puts his pants on one leg at a time. I put my pants on one leg at a time so, I guess I can do this too". </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia;">The life changing part, that I did not realize was life changing at the time, was that I started to look at things that I wanted to do and didn't know how to do, with the attitude that I will just have to <em><strong>learn </strong></em>this. Towing is a learned skill like any other. You start off slowly and build up. You learn the basics and you build from there. You start in your church parking lot and then you begin towing around your neighborhood. You hook up and unhook your trailer 20 times until you feel that you've got it down. You pick a time of day when traffic is low in your area and you practice getting on and off the highway. You drive two towns over and park in the far end of the shopping center and pull out again. You get a friend that tows and you ask them to encourage you and to ride shot gun with you and talk you through it. You <strong><em>start </em></strong>by reading everything you can about it and having information. <strong><em>Knowledge reduces fear. </em></strong>You watch Youtube videos that give tips. </span><br />

The most important thing to have is the<strong><em> attitude</em></strong> that you can and will do this. Remind yourself that it is being done everyday. The women who are camping and towing and doing things and going places had a starting point. There was a time in which they knew nothing at all about it. <span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">My friend Mary was such a person. She was fascinated by the whole sister on the fly, girl camper movement and thought it was a cool thing that other people did. I kept telling her to join us and she kept saying, "I don't have a camper. I don't know how to tow. I've never left my family before." With encouragement and patience Mary learned to tow, bought a camper and is now going places and doing things with her girl camper friends and with her family too. Mary has converted her family into campers. She overcame her fear and took it one step at a time. This same Mary who was so shy that she wouldn't ask a question at a PTA meeting, is going to Wyoming next week to learn how to rope and ride and brand and barrel race. It all starts someplace. It's one step at a time. Just start today by reading about it. Slow and steady does win the race.</span></div>
