All Better!

A little Botox....a little filler.   What gal in her 50's doesn't look better with help?

The First "Camp Out"

I  CAN hitch, tow and back a trailer.  Yes I CAN!  Saturday Vernon and I drove down to our house at Fort Scott Lake to camp in the front yard.  80 miles down and 80 miles back and didn't hit anything!  Be proud --- I am!

Little Toto visited Quiet Cove on Oct 8th & 9th for an overnighter. 

Almost dark, all lit up and ready for bed.  Vernon and Toby lasted until about 12:30.  Tight quarters for Toby to be comfortable so they went inside the house to sleep the rest of the night.  I stayed outside and listened to the night sounds - dogs, trains, hoot owls.  Very peaceful.  I could tell you that it was just like real camping, but I did go inside for a hot bubble bath before lights out! 

Big Girls DO Cry :(((

Do you see my tears on the ground?  Oh my heart was breaking.   I haven't even left the driveway and I broke her!!!!  Tuesday morning I backed out of the garage, attempting to avoid the recycle bins, and BAM!  Ouch!  Stomp, Cry, Yell!  I spent two days trying to find someone who would come to my house and fix this dent before Vernon sees it.  Since that wasn't possible, Dear Husband has seen the damage via cell photo, shrugged and said "no big deal, easily fixed."  Love that man!  Now Toto's friend, Craig, is going to have another winter project to get this all better.  Oh well, hope I do better on the road than I do in my driveway......

It's Time to Peek Inside

Ready for a front yard party



First class all the way --- ironing board bar, vintage camp chairs and table.  And of course, flowers.



Come on in and see what we've done.

Welcome!

Dinette table (makes into a bed), new white vinyl upholstery, pretty in polka dots.

It's all about relaxing....

Princess stove and icebox.  Please note candlelight and wine!

"Sisters on the Fly" is the inspiration for this mid-life adventure!

Collection of suitcases for extra storage

A girl needs a nice handbag, even while camping!

My Daddy had a lunchbox just like this.  Every day when he came home from work we'd look inside to see if he left us a treat.  Now it makes a perfect place to keep a first aid kit.

Cozy comfort - no sleeping bags for this camper!  Feather bed, down comforter and lots of fluffy pillows.  Even Little Toto is up for a nap.

Dining table - enamel coffee pot makes a cheerful vase

Such a happy and welcoming playhouse.  No Boys Allowed!  (Except those who install trailer hitches, buy new tires, order the parts and pieces to get this rig running safely)

Every Glamorous Cowgirl need boots and a petticoat

At the end of the day, we finally figured out how to put up the awning.  It's amazing what WD-40 can accomplish.    Piece of cake!  Now we just need to get out of our front yard and go camping.

Kickin' Up Some Sass!

Artist, Lisa Gentile, added a little more sassitude to Toto's Tin Can.  Here is Lori and little Toto kicking up their heels in a pink petticoat and pink boots.  They sure know how to have fun!

Lights, Tires, Action!

This is Toto's (and mine) new best friend, CRAIG KELLY from Olathe Ford RV (http://www.olathefordrv.com/) in Gardner KS.  With safety in mind 100%, Craig re-wired all the exteriors lights, checked and packed the bearings, and found a spare tire and rim, which he had painted gold to match the new trailer tires.  I have a feeling there will be other projects that I can keep Craig busy with over the winter.  Thank you, Craig!

Toto Is Home! She Looks Smashing!!!

Welcome Home, Toto!

Oh my, doesn't she look stunning!

Step inside and visit awhile.
 I'm having an idea to add a little something to the right side of the door. 
Sisters On The Fly logo will go over rear window.

Back window bling.

A wildflower garden.  We were stopping traffic on the drive home today!

One of a kind work of art on wheels!
