Glamper Showing her UGLY

Well now that you viewed how she looked from the outside, (not to shabby), I thought I would give you a tour of her interior (not so pretty). At first glance, she's not to bad, but on closer inspection, her wrinkles start to show.

First view is the dinette area(with 1970ish) AC unit

Next the rear with the double bed and single canvas bunk

the " kitchen area"

Upon closer inspection, besides the peeling veneer, there was MOLD (YIKES!!!)

Lots of mold . . . almost all interior paneling will HAVE to go.

Upon seeing her for the first time, my son said, "Holy C***!, Mom, it sleeps 5!"

I responded, "Nope, she only sleeps ONE!"

Let the process begin! First scheduled campout with the Getaway Gals is in June!

Glamper in the Making

It has been a dream of mine for the last couple of years to remodel a little canned ham camper and turn it into a Glamper just for ONE! But as we all know, LIFE can sometimes get in the way! Well, after searching Craigslist for just the right one, the planets all aligned and now she is mine!

She is a 1960 Mobile Scout, produced in Arlington, TX so in a way she has come home.

Follow along as take you through her complete transformation!

(she really needs a major facelift ~ she is 54 after all)

Here are a few more of her before photos!

Checkin in, after Checking out!

As you can tell, life jumped up and kicked me in the tail! I lost interest in a lot of things (not from depression) but from a re-alignment of what I feel passionate about. I quit my old job, became a flight attendant for a charter company and began exploring self-sufficiency.

I decided to get off the proverbial treadmill, have a career that allowed me to travel, yet still spend a great amount of time at home as well and a little more money to enable to make necessary repairs to my 30+ year old "starter home".

Thank you to those who have visited me through my links on Pinterest! I will be sharing more about my dabbling into self-reliance as well as continuing on with my trash-to-treasure fetish.
