Made it to the trailer today, Bramble went with me too, taking out my new mini crockpot, some other miscellaneous items and looking at what I need to do. There are a lot of dead flies I need to vacuum up and do some dusting.
I rearranged a cloth purse with a Scottish thistle embroidered on it that is hanging on the wall above on window.
And, found a tiny screw hole that needed a butyl tape patch repair. I will touch that up with paint and touch up the paint on the wheels.
Then I lay back on the settee, looking all around at the adorable little "Reiver's Rest" anticipating our glamping trip. Found myself so comfy that I dozed off for a few minutes . . .

Bought a "shower/utility" tent from Walmart and set it up today. Robin and I plan to glamp for a week where there are no shower facilities.
We already have the shower bag so I thought we could do it this way AND set up a luggable loo in there as well, especially for night time.
Set it up today and I think it'll be great! 4x4 ft and 7fr. 2 inches tall with a sturdy for the shower bag, mesh pockets and removable "organizer". It also has a floor in it with mesh along the sides so it will drain. We can put a rug in it when using it for the loo.

CeeJay, rule of thumb, 'gotta to have list' will be whittled down by $$$ in the bank. That's my experience so I make my list as long as I can. Theory is the longer the list the more I actually get. Putting the list aside do have fun planning for your and Birdie's lil' camping adventure.

Sara,
My "gotta haves" are pretty much already purchased, it's just a matter of getting it all together in an organized manner.
Our challenge for this trip is enough food for a week! And, we aren't going to be all that far away from a grocery store but . . .
I'm SOOOOOO looking forward to it. We've done a lot of glamping together and we do it with style and class!

I love hearing about everyone's glamping preparations. Someday I'll join you in my glamped up tent, but until then I just love to listen in! I wonder how kitties would do in a tent?!?
Hugs and Happy Day!

CeeJay, when is your camping trip happening? Sounds like it will be grand and I hope you will take photos to share with us about all of the fun and adventures you have.
Grace, when are you taking off in your Scotty for a trip? Now that June is officially here, it is time to head out.
Wagons Ho!

Winnie,
We have reservations for June 14 through morning of the 21st. Oh you can count on pictures and posting! I'm just hoping all the snow is melted away in the campground (at about 9000 ft. elevation), etc. I'm praying for WONDERFUL WEATHER . . no rain, no snow, no wind and lots of Colorado blue skies! We should also be able to have campfires! For several years, because of our drought, campfires were banned, which is sad and takes part of the fun and spirit out of camping
Three years ago we were enroute to the Pacific Northwest to join up with glamper friends near Spokane, Washington. On Weds. that first week we were in day three of driving from my daughter's house in Phoenix . . . LL-OOOO-NNNN-GGGG drive. In 3 1/2 weeks of that road trip we put over 4000 miles on a rental van!

Your trip sounds like great fun, CeeJay! I will be praying you have lots of good weather too. It would be a huge bummer to miss out on this time with rain, snow, winds and whatever else happens at 9000 feet! Campfires sound like a must to me!! LOL!!

Diana,
AT Cayton Campground, just above Rico, CO and before you start driving up to the summit of Lizard Head Pass. Robin and I spent three days there last summer. It's a nice campground, with nice big sites, some with electricity. Not a big one and it's by the Dolores River.
About 45 miles drive for us, so not terribly far. I don't plan to ever take our trailer very far . . . I don't think she's up to long trips!

Well, our "drive through" the campground today was great! The snow is melted, the sites and road are dry, the host is all set up there and it's looking great! YAY!
Probably no wading in the river because it's in full spring run-off and high and very fast. Our drive up to the top of Lizard Head pass gave us the view of TONS of snow still on those peaks. Will be run-off for quite some time!

Bought a sportsman trunk to put on the tongue where the propane tanks (not using propane) used to be. Wanted something to carry tools, etc. in so that stuff doesn't take up space in the trailer or the back of the Envoy and can stay in the trunk!
Have asked "Birdie" to work on meal menus . . . she's good at that! I've started the grocery list.
