In the books I have read about vintage campers, it is suggested that you pick the name before you even start the project. If I had waited until I had the name, the bushes would still be growing out the backside because my guys would have lost interest. Nothing, I mean, nothing came to me for the longest time. And then, there it was. And I knew. After weeks of thinking and praying--yes, that probably sounds ridiculous considering the important things that there are to pray about, but I was desperate--it just was so very apparent. I was at the mall in Bath and Body Works, and saw this:
And standing in that store, I could see it painted on the side. And I let out a squeal. And Tessa *got* it right away. And I was happy, very happy. And I will try not to get carried away with this post. It's just that it communicates why I even wanted a vintage camper. The added plus is that I love the scent and have a gift card to buy it for when I get carried away this summer!

Ah!!!!!!!! I LOVE it!! It's perfect! I mean, if it was my camper it would be perfect because 'carried away' is something I feel on a daily basis - whatever the reasons...and so it's perfect for you because I know that being carried away or getting carried away or carrying things away is in you - whatever the reasons!!!!!!!! LOL!!!
LOVE LOVE!!
That is PERFECT!! What a great name!!!! Love it!
K, it's all about me wanting to be carried away to anywhere. :) Believe you me, it won't be too far from home. I'm not that brave!

Now, I'm thinking a cute little trailer might be nicer for company than a little cottage for company on our acreage.
You have inspired me. But Ray would HATE the job!! lol Got Cassidy, though, and he will do anything! :o)
Perfect! Leave it to Bath& Body Works for inspiration! Love their Fresh Cut Lemon for the kitchen!!!
I've been away taking care of "LIFE HAPPENINGS" so I'm just catching up on your Camper progress.
So first let me say-- THERE ARE BOOKS? i must go and check this out.
Do you recommend any in particular? a favorite perhaps?
And secondly... a name? I've had mine picked out since we brought it home.Honey and I decided together after seeing it. But wasn't sure if people named them or if that was just for Christening Boats! LOL...
I'll have to do a post about our name of choice.
you've left me inspired! Pat
