The Great Outdoors





With the warmer weather rolling in I am eager to get outside and work on projects - of course getting eaten by may flies and mosquitoes is a set back, but that is why there is bug spray!  

But beyond projects, summer brings about a 5 year tradition for me and my boys - camping!  Now, by NO means am I a "camper" (you can read all about one of my adventures here - then you'll see why)- but lately, I'm addicted.  Why the sudden change?  GLAMPERS!

I want one. I don't have a car big enough to pull one and I'm pretty sure my boys would shrink with embarrassment but all that aside, I want one.  I thought I wanted an Airstream - but after finding this Facebook page, I see there are way more funky options!

So, what is Glamping?  Well, basically, glamorous camping!  And you had me at glamorous!

Now, I have 2 major obstacles - 1.  convince the hubby that I do, in fact, need a glamper and 2. how to decorate it!!  I mean, just check out these cute redo's I found via The DIY Dreamer

I've only touched on the amazing possibilities these campers hold - both in style and ways to use them other than camping!  So while I am off day dreaming about what glamper I want rolling into the White Mountains, shout out some of your dreams!  

Do you have a glamper?  Show us the pics!!!

  1. I want one too. I don't think my vw Bug would pull it either. It has to have a bathroom and A/C. It has to be able to sleep me and I am chubby and my 6'3" husband.......but no other requirements. If someone was smart they would making these for again. I know that Airstre probably still does but at a high price. We can dream, right.

    1. We sure can Debby!! I pass by this house all the time with an Airstream out in their yard that hasn't moved in years... one day, I'll get the courage to go ask them to sell it to me - cheap! :)
