What a long weekend that was!

Can you believe I had to spend TWO whole days with the Ladies? I now know why they are nicknamed the “Twinadoes”. My big brother Josh thanked me for being good to the Ladies. You can’t imagine how hard it is not to hiss and bite them when they are teasing me. Mom put up the baby gate so I could have some me time ALONE.

Wow this is the first time that I have seen either one of them being still. The one called Ava decided that she needed a nap. I was just checking on her for mom.
 
Hee hee hee Ma was having fun playing with stickers. Zoe was wondering why I kept snickering when she walked by me.

P.S. I am looking foward to camping next weekend. Gotta go make sure Ma packs everything I need.

Just got home from the rally


Got home from the rally a couple of hours ago. Man was I exhausted. Ma managed to get the meds in me before we left Montello. I slept most of the way home and took a nap while they unpacked the trailer. It also rained all the way home and for hours after we got home. We also discovered that the new front window seals in the Shasta failed. What a mess.

I am looking forward to camping in Wild Rose in a couple of weeks. Ma said that we are going to take the ’53 Zollinger because it is better insulated.

Open House Day


Ma & Pa were concerned that I might get a little overwhelmed by all the people touring MY camper during the "Show & Shine" so they locked me up in my portable playhouse. Here I am harassing the neighbor dogs. Hee hee. Stupid dogs. Mom said she counted 222 people that went through my trailer. I greeted the last 20 or so. The "Show & Shine" means that the campground is open for the public to tour the trailers.
Travis stopped by after the open house to check out our "Trailer Mail" mailbox. He wanted to put a few spit miles on it, but dad would not let him because dad smelled alchol on his breath. Snooze you lose gnome!
Here is dad in front of his baby "Shaz" she is a 1961 Shasta Airflyte. Ma & Pa bought her in 1999 and used her for years before they decided that she needed a restoration. This is Shaz's second year showing at the rally. We got a lot of compliments on her this year. I really enjoyed my first "Midwest Vintage Trailer Rally". I hope that I can come back next year. Ma & Pa said that in a couple of weeks that we going to Wild Rose camping with the Sargents. I can't wait!

Finally Met My Blogging Idol

Wow what a day Thursday was! Ma & Pa were up early drinking coffee and packing up the Shasta for the rally. I just knew Ma was up to something. Turned out she tried to drug me! First I spit it out. FAIL. Than she tried a different tactic. Crushing the pill and mixed it with water and injecting it down my throat. FAIL again (dad was surprised with how much spit I have). Than she tried brute force and shoved the pill down and rubbed my throat. Dang it that kinda worked. I still was a little worked up most of the trip to Montello.

When we got to the rally I finally got to meet Kimberly and Gibb. Nice folk Kimberly and Gibb. I was pretty tired and freaking out so for the Cocktail party Ma & Pa put me in my playhouse while the party was at my trailer.

I learned Friday that Travis, and Big Bill were parked next to us. While Ma & Pa were occupied I sauntered over and introduced myself. Hmmm. Big Bill ain’t so big, but I was not about to tell him that to his face. Travis was real cool. Did you know Gnomes live to be thousand of years old? Who knew. I am having so much fun meeting all the vintage people and getting to tour their trailers. I am going to take a nap now, after all camping is all about relaxing. Here is Big Bill, Travis and me Oscar meeting for the first time.

Whoo hoo!



Remind me to NEVER screw with cousin Ollie. In less than six months he totally destroyed his scratching post. Good thing Ma saved the left over carpet.

My bags are packed. Shasta screen door and propane leak are fixed (and I helped). We are almost ready for the Midwest Vintage Trailer Rally. Ma just has to pick up my traveling meds, make the food, pack the coolers and trailer. I can’t wait. I’ll post about the rally when I get there.
