                      I spent the whole day cleaning and scrubbing the Flamingo Palace.. Please tell me how one 16ft vintage trailer stored in a barn for a year can  get so dirty, dust and musty?? Anyway, F.P. is out of the barn and all spiffed up..., I still have to toss the linens (towels, blankets, table covers and rugs) in the laundry.. tomorrows project. I need to wash the exterior also.. I'll post pics after F.P. is all tidy.. Got the fridge cooling and filled with sparkling water and a few beers for hubby in case he sneaks out into the trailer for a nap.

                      Although it's a lot of work, I bet it's a wonderful feeling to have your palace all cleaned up and ready to go!

                      Great work Grace! I love how you call it your Flamingo Palace! We actually had to sleep in our trailer on Saturday night because our AC broke and the house was a sauna. Thank goodness the trailer was nice and cool. Plus the kids liked the pre camping trip lol!

                      I have been enjoying sneaking out to my F.P. with my Sissy girl (kitty) just to sit and chillaxe..  Yesterday, while Sissy was sitting by the screen door looking out, 2 sets of Quails sauntered by... then a Bee decided to annoy Sissy by busing around the door..  Right now the Skeeters are horrible (waking up from the sudden heat wave) so I can't sit outside,, but in the trailer its the  next best thing... Happy Trails...

                      No special theme, just having fun being eclectic…
 
  
  btw: the red-haired rag doll is ‘LucyGrace’ I made her oh so many years ago while visiting with a handful of Farm gals over at Maryjane‘s farm.  We had fun making rag dolls and enjoying food and friendship. Great memories. Great laughter  Maryjane was the ‘Hostess with the mostess’  .

                      Your Glamper is looking all spiffed up again for some use during those lazy summer evenings or days when a cheerful spot is like a travel destination right in your own backyard!  Love the idea of using it for a glass of wine in the evening, coffee in the early morning, maybe a nap on a rainy day!  I love how you have it all fixed up!

                      I actually sat out in the Flamingo Palace this morning with my mug of Java.. watching the mama Killdeer and her 3 babies.. They are such funny and noisy birds. But now it's back to 'work',, my garden doesn't weed itself!
