I'm east of the Mizz in the Appalachian Mountains of southwest VA; count me in, please and thanks! What a fabulous idea, perhaps it will hurry up my trailer coming to me...where ever it is now...
What a great trailer you've landed, congratulations!

Oh, my gosh, I love this idea!! I have always loved the out of doors and camping. I have wanted a trailer for some time but since I know I can't back her up I just sorta' gave it up......well, and then along comes Sher who says "just keep going forward" Silly me...I just gotta do this! Thanks so much for giving birth to this idea,Kelley! Love it. I live alone and was a bit worried about traveling the US on my own but this is a perfect solution and a wonderful way to 'give back' to our USA. Have I told you how much I love this idea?

Not to put a damper on any of this but is there a way to have some conveniences? What years did they have frigs? And what about a portapotty? We won't always be going to parks with services will we? I am not a wuss but being over 60 sorta' made me turn into a 'princess' to some degree. Or is that a queen....well, maybe NOT!

FYI: Miss Kelley is at a rendevous in Oklahoma.... I can't recall when she will be back but it should be sometime soon. My cellular bill misses her phone calls...lol! So she will be posting in all her greatness asap.

karen, or should I say, Princess! haha! Usually the trailers that are 14' & smaller do not have potties....so we carry "chamber pots" & lots of plastic bags for those late nite "calls".... You can also buy one of those self contained port-a-potties at camping supply stores as well as Wal-Mart, Bi-mart etc.... The older trailer come w/ice boxes and the not so vintage have 3-way refridges.... I have not been to concerned about the potty as I usually camp in areas that have potties/showers. But for really Dry Camping I bring a port-able self contained potty. They cost around $65.00. The larger trailers, usually 15ft & larger have little potties & even smaller showers. Keeping in mind you have a 5 gal fresh water tank and another tank for your grey water and in some cases a 3rd tank for Black(sewer) waste. When you & I start snooping around for a trailer I'll fill you in w/more details. hahaha! hugz

Hi girls. Here's something fun for those of you who are discussing outdoor bathtubs. This morning, we received the following request from the New York Times:
******
Have an outdoor tub? The New York Times would love to see it.
The Home section of The New York Times is doing a story on outdoor bathtubs. Funky or fancy, we’d love to see what you’ve done. E-mail Joyce Wadler, reporter in the Home section, at jwadler@nytimes.com. The photos are not for publication, they’re just to give us an idea of what you’ve done.
Thanks for your help. Joyce Wadler
******
So if you've already made your tub dreams a reality, send Joyce your photos!

Would love to host a rendezvous in the Midwest. There are so many great sites with small towns and history abounds.
Crowder Lake, Trenton, MO, Gen. Pershing Park, Laclede, MO Watkins Mill, Kearny , MO.. a woolen mill, and heritage park Weston State Park, Weston, MO.
All I can think of right now is when Minnie Mouse and Mickey Mouse went camping and picnicing. Anyone remember that cartoon???

I am hoping that summer of 2010 will be a summer of "Farm girls on the Loose".... Currently a lot of us up here in Washington have put or are putting our lil Glampers away for the Winter... I currently am co-hosting w/another sister from Sisters on the Fly, our 2nd annual Spokane camping weekend for June 2010. If anyone is truly serious about coming up this way next Spring/Summer or early Autumn(before Oct) I would be most happy to host a group... The Bowl & Pitcher up here on the Spokane River is breath taking as well as picturesque. Who knows, maybe my Aljo will be road ready. If not then I will be camping in my Scotty w/a porta potty! lol! Wowzers Wende, sounds like you have the makings for some great camping....come on you mid-west farm girls....don't miss this opportunity to camp in MO. ala Mickey & Minnie style! lol!

We're planning a trip to the Black Hills in June of 2010.... I'm thinking it would make a fantastic farm girl outing. :o) I'd love to make a side trip to DeSmet to visit Laura Ingalls Wilder home. (We've been to the little house in Pepin, WI)
We've winterized our camper already. We're not vintage but LOVE to camp & fish.

Hey Deb,
Do you think we should plan a Laura Wilder week of travel with our campers.???
Next Sept. will be Wilder Days in Mansfield MO. There are so many sites that pertain to Laura Wilder. We can plan a week or less or more.
But..... the farmgirl farm fair in Kansas City will be Sept. 18 next year. We can camp at the site or close.
I have looked into a plan and sounds like a good time. Mansfield , MO, Burr Oak , IA, Pepin, WI and Walnut Grove , MN. Desmet, SD and Indep. MO.
We can get a map and plan it out. Make a huge splash every where we go and do some community service. Also the bed races in Mansfield. What a hoot.

I brought up the subject with the hubby last night and he outright told me that I will not be leaving him at home on this trip! He WILL be fishing with The Sisters on the Fly! LOL! So, I guess we'll be making at least one of the trips.
