Craig's List Changed My Life

Last week I saw this on Craig's List . . .
I've been looking for a small trailer for the last three years,
but when I saw this sweet little motor-home  . . . my heart skipped a beat :)
I still can not believe it's mine.

As a child we did a lot of traveling.
My father was a contractor and we traveled many times for his work,
but never for the pure joy of having fun or camping.

It was an amazing price and everything on it works perfectly except the awning, so that's on our spring to do list.
Can you believe it is a 1987.

Well, I spent three days making it our own, 
and stocking it  . . .
then we took off on our first camping adventure.
These photos are where we set up camp.

The camp ground is called Silverline
and they are about 5 miles north of Winthrop, WA.

Isn't it beautiful.
We were hoping for fall color and saw some,
but in a week or two . . .can you just imagine:)

These photos were the first day when we got there. 

These photos are what we saw the next morning when we woke.

 

 

This is the view outside our kitchen window.
"Table with a view, please" :)

This is our camp site. 

The next few photos were a walk around the campgrounds later that morning. 

 

See the snow capped mountains in the distance.

I fell in love with this tree.

Our campsite had a lake on one side 
and a little creek on the other. 

 

 

Butchy loved camping.
We took so many walks . . .he was loving it:)
His hair is growing back very nicely,
but the scarred area is coming in brown and a little wirey. 

We had a campfire the whole time.
The air was crisp and the campfire felt so good at night.
Can you believe I forgot to bring marshmallows,
but I did bake an apple pie in my little motor-home oven, 
and the freezer kept our ice cream good and hard :)

These folks moved in next door on our last night.
Their little trailer was so cute that I had to get a photo to show you.
It had a bed and a complete kitchen inside.
I should have asked to take a photo of the inside to show you.
This couple was from Canada and the couple that came in on the other side of us were from Holland.
They rented a motor-home and were touring the country.

Here we are driving out of the mountains,

 and heading back to our beloved dessert.

My next post will be photos of the cowboy town of Winthrop, WA.
You are going to fall in love with this unique western town.

We are hooked on camping:)

I hope that I did not bore you
and that you had an enjoyable time tagging along.

Thanks so much for visiting.
Are you a camper?
