I love seeing the smiles on
people’s faces after they have
looked inside and are stepping out
of the trailer. It makes me feel like
I have spread a little joy around.
until I finally decided to make it so that her dinette table
could be set up on the side of the trailer and I made
to single beds inside and took out the overhead bunk
which made it feel so much more spacious inside. At
one time I had made a permanent King sized bed and
everyone would comment on the giant bed and asked
how many people could sleep in it. At one camp out we
actually had four of us in that bed!
I went on my maiden voyage just a few weeks
after getting Sassy. I took my nieces and nephew to a
campground for Spring Break that was about twenty
miles away. It was pouring down rain the whole time
but we stayed snug inside and ventured out to roast
marshmallows when the rain would die down a bit. My
dad was so nervous about us being out alone that he
drove to the campground every morning and evening to
check on us as there was no cell phone service. My dad
has since passed away so this is a very fond memory for
me. Even though it rained for most of the time it felt so
great to have taken her out, which really made her feel
like she was now really mine.
