:: Not My Camper-

Or Random Phone Pix…
Wasn’t sure what to call this post as I’ve already got a TAG title NOT my camper.
Very simply—these are pictures of campers, the pictures are mine; but the campers are NOT MINE and they are usually taken AT RANDOM,  with my iPhone,  when I’m out and about. They are also in various stages of repair. Because the LORD knows—I will pull-over to look at a camper and take some pictures.

We are still in the remodel stages of our camper.  Little by little getting it done. I see little campers like this, very basic; and it gives me hope and encouragement!

Soon enough we will hopefully be at the PULL-AWAY-FROM-HOME stage.
Looking like this simple beauty--- hauling it down the highway!

Until then,
Grace and Peace…

:: Floor Plan Inspiration::

This weekend while out toolin' around...actually, coming home from the park for a birthday party... 

We stopped to look at a camper near our home town. It caught my eye a couple of weeks ago, when I saw it.

 We are not looking to buy another one--just gathering information for the one we have; and mainly because We still have not identified our camper Make and Model. 

We  haven't made much head way in the rebuilding of our camper. Back in 2011, when The Honey had a heart attack; it pretty much but the camper on the back burner! 

It is still something we want to do; but as it stands...

it is empty. Gutted completely. 

The lady that owned this camper said she had just sold a couple of weeks ago and had let the purchaser pay it out!  It sold for $800.00 !!!  I think she got a very good deal. 

Still she was happy to let us look at the inside and since I had my camera with me...she allowed me to take some pictures. 

Coming in the door: 

A Shower Toilet Combo 

to the left a Refridgerator

and even further left a Closet complete w/ water heater! 

combo Shower- Toilet! 

Oh How I want one of these! 

Inside the storage closet w/ water heater

Ample storage-- with cubbies over the Refridgerator

 Continuing Left and facing the Rear: 

A full size bed. 

With a bunk over top. Yes! This little door does open, but if you look in the top almost center of the photo; there is a latch holding the whole cabinet face in place. It folds down and makes a top bunk.  I believe this camper is designed to sleep 6. 

The kitchen is complete with the loveliest Harvest Gold fixtures: 

3 Burner Stove and oven. More storage. 

Dual Sink and extra counter top! 

This is the fridge and bathroom side again...looking toward the front 

The front at one time had a booth...the table has been replaced with a pedestal table and 1 swivel rocker. 

My camper won't have a swivel rocker...I hope to have the booth built and that will be the other bed in our camper. Sleeping 4 Only.  That is my plans. 

Speaking of plans. I found these plans online. We're hoping to implement some of these features in our camper.

Can you believe it?  I took all those pictures of the camper's inside. .. And I forgot to take one of the outside. 

Fortunately... you can see what this 'Bell " Camper looked like. 

It is very similar to ours. However, I don't think ours is a Bell...but it is close enough. 

We're hoping to work on this some this year. 

It's been a long time since I've posted here... I know. But I've not had much to post. 

Seeing this "Bell" has me excited to do something with ours, provided The Honey is up to it and the money is there to do it. 

How ‘Bout Orange?

 

   This is me dinkin’ round with LIVE WRITER~   

   YES!  it’s more car show pictures.

   Nice ‘VETTE.

This is what I’ve learned about Live Writer (with the help of my friend Gail @ My Repurposed Life)

  She has so graciously agreed to---ehem… well really, I tracked her down and made her help me.

You can upload pictures and give them lots of different frames and layouts. For instance this picture looks like an instant photo.

   While some of them look like they have been laid down on the paper and have a shadow behind them~  

   … some may have frames around them, too.     Check out that matching luggage.     The picture can look like photo paper and even have a water mark on them.     You can also round the corner and give them that softer look ~    …or they can have a really cool ‘reflection’ Which I happen to like on this particular car…to remind me  of the past like I’m looking back! 

Isn’t that cool? 

So how about Orange?   My personal favorite was the Bel-Aire with the matching luggage.  I like they way some of the die-hard car show enthusiasts stage their vehicles. 

Well done.

I know you’re probably sick of seeing car show pictures.   But this post was mainly about Live Writer and me testing it out.

Thanks for letting do that and Thanks for reading!

Thanks Gail for all your help and tutoring with Live Writer.

Grace and Peace~ 

More Car Show: The 'COOL' hot color!

These are more pictures of the car show. 

Turquoise and Cool Blues were very HOT! that day-- and quite a few of the vehicles caught my eye! 

I guess I didn't realize how many were in the BLUE SPECTRUM  until I downloaded my photos. 

* Again, let me say- these cars were really packed in so; Me being the not-so-savvy-photographer and cramped quarters-- the pictures are NOT quite as good as I'd like. 

But I just love this color! 

 Blue Pony. 

I liked everything about this truck right down to the White Walls! 

 Can't get enough of that chrome! 

 Beautiful Truck! 

 I talked to the owner of this Thunderbird-- he re-did his car himself. 

 Amateur paint job. But very nicely done. 

 The inside-- Sweet! 

Room for a party inside. 

 A cruiser for sure! 

The Way. 

Under the Hood. 

 Little G.T. Oh My Goodness! 

 I think this was my favorite Muscle Car of the day. 

Don't get me wrong-- there were lots of Ponies there that Day... but the GTO, man- you gotta love it! 

 Blue Book ends! 

 I Loved this little Ranchero. 

 I talked with the owner for quite a few minutes. She enjoyed restoring this little car/truck.  She said she shopped around for just the right color of  Turquoise and took it personally to the paint and body guy to paint it. There she is sitting in her chair.

 She paid particular attention to detail and added little 'pops' of turquoise throughout. 

Love that bread box. You could have a picnic in the bed of this truck right on the beach! 

 Then I asked if I could get her picture.  She was just the cutest thing in her Ranchero get-up with turquoise jeans! The Lady Ranchero and her Ranchero! 

 I think this was my favorite.  The Falcon Ranchero. 

And lastly another muscle car. 

There are still plenty of car pictures to show.  

I'll post them periodically.  I don't want to bore you with all of them at once. 

I haven't forgotten this is supposed to be a blog about my TIN Can-- 

Which by the way, I'd love to see painted with a sweet Turquoise Stripe down the side-- 

But if you've read my other blog (maybe you have maybe you haven't) But Honey (aka: the husband) recently had a TRIPLE BYPASS-- and so all projects are currently on hold. 

I hope to do a few things slowly with the camper. But for now-- my days are filled nursing my man back to good health! 

Thanks for reading.
