Blogger messages..

Well fiddle sticks!! for some reason, I have not been getting text messages through my BlogSpot site... So for those of you who have my personal hotmail address, pleaaee use that.. I still have issues trying to post on here.. so I just have not bothered.. In a Nutshell,, all is well.. We are having a long cold and snow filled Winter... I try to spend more time in my crafting-sewing room and less time by the television.. :>) Our sweet rescue kitty, Sissy, has turned into such a 'love-bug'.. she wants to be around us all the time... she tolerates Ginger our dog and Ginger wants so badly to be friends.. I think it will not take to long for Sissy to be comfortable around Ginger,.. Sissy has been with us 9months... and she thinks she is the boss of the house! (and she is !) I have decided to start back to Cross-stitching.. a hobby I loved so much, but had stopped doing because of my poor vision.. I have been motivated by a friend in Berlin, to start cross stitching again. Wish me luck..
I stitched up this little Gnome for Autumn and I also made one for Christmas, but I forgot to take a photo before I put away all my Christmas decorations..
Yes, cat's do love boxes! :>)
When I tell Sissy she is not the Boss.. she just laughs!! Have a healthy and happy weekend..

It's almost Done!

Yay!, it's almost finished,, well except for the removable front door panals...
All that is left is to seal it up.. but because of the stupid rediculous price of lumber (thanks to COVID-19 and no one wanting to work).. so a normal sheet panal of plywood is $20 and now about $60 Crazy, but next summer when things are back to normal, well construct front removable panals. Hubby built a temporary front enclouser using white Tarps, I will have to take a photo, when it's not so cold outside! Because of COVID, we chose not to go camping,, which is ok, because we had lots of projects to finish up around the property... Now it is Autumn, and we are looking forward to the upcomming Holidays... Stay Safe and Healthy

7 Months Later...

7 months later, and I have not posted... Well Bummer! Summer was soooo slow to arrive and then when it did,,, it did so with a vengence! We had several weeks of being up in the 100' degree temps, the hights was 107' which is Not normal for us here in Eastern Washington. We also have a lot of work around the property to do,, as well as several large renovation projects, that have kept us home,,, but,, I did pull the Aristocrate out of the Barn, and set it up so I can hang out in it and read.. how ever,, with the hot temps.. I can't sit out there for to long. Hubby and I did not get to do any camping last year due to the COVID-19 pandemic,, and so far, no camping due to work.. but our plans are to wait until the end of September and hit the road for a week or two, maybe go to the Coast for a week and then over to Montana for a week.. Hopefully we'll be back to Camping and Glamping next year.... fingers crossed.. In the mean time, Wagons HO... even if it is only in my day dreams.

Almost the End of Camping Season...

Well, here it is, almost the end of camping season,, and I still have not been able to take either of my wee trailers on a camping trip... Before you know it,, it will be Winter,,, and my trailers will once again be back in their cave hibernating. I hope 2021 will be a much better year for camping.
Oh sigh... but at least I have fabulous memories from years past...

Sweet trims for my Trailers..

Still can't get out to camp, but no reason to not trim out my trailers to make them feel loved...
 fun festive colors for the Aristocrat...
and pastel colors on vtg. lace and embroidered linens for the Serro Scotty...
 
Both banners were made for me by Marilyn, back in Texas.. 
I sent her the blue and yellow banner ...
 
 
The banner swap was a fun swap.

Barn Trailers...

Well the trailers and motorhome are still tucked away in the barn,, until the new Well is drilled,, we want to keep them out of the way...
Oh how I miss taking a afternoon nap in them....
 
Oh and on the plus side,, even tho the Motorhome is in the barn,, I still can watch T.V. in it.
Maybe I will sneak out there tomorrow and chillax..... and hide away from the world.
 
The only problem,, which one shall I hide out in?
 Motorhome...
 Aristocrat...
Scotty....???

Spammers strike again!

Well, this is frustrating... my Blogs are getting annoying SPAM comments.. like this one,
 """Wow! this is Amazing! Do you know your hidden name meaning of your name?"""..
it shows it's from an Unknown source...
 
UUGH! why can't people be nice? I keep trying to block them via the SPAM box.. but today I had 9 of these in my 'waiting for moderation' box..
Hopefully these Spammers can't attach themselves to anyone who reads or comments on my blogs.
I wonder if anyone else is getting Spam comments lately.. Is Blogger the next target?

June 4th, 2020

Well, since my last Post, in mid May,, the private and State campgrounds are still closed to camping.
 
And then,,, this past weekend.. we got an Advisory Weather Warning... for Lightning, Thunder, Rain and Hail and 40mph winds...
So,, we had barely an hour to stow away all the lawn furniture and decorations, as well as put both trailers into the barn along with all the decorations around the trailers...
Not to much longer and the winds kicked up, the rain & thunder and lightning and Hail started....
 
We decided to leave everything packed up,, because according to the weather report,, we would be due in more rain and winds for the next few days..
 
Tomorrow the rains are due to start and stay for 2-3 days..
So hopefully by the end of next week we will be back to normal weather and we can pull the trailers and lawn furniture and decorations back out..
 
Oh I miss my lil backyard Campground...
 
Happy Thursday...

No Camping Yet...

There is still no camping,, due to the COVID19...
We can not go to Campgrounds or State Parks to camp.. until our State will allow the Campgrounds and Parks to open up for camping...
 
So until then,, I will just spend time out in my little trailers,, maybe I will bring some books and magazines and some hand stitching sewing projects to leave in my trailers,, and then I can hang out in my trailer and relax with reading or sewing...
 
I recently made a sweet little Banner/Bunting for my Aristocrat trailer..
 I was able to use up some scrap fabric to make this....
 now to decide where to hang it in my trailer... 
 
Recently I received a very sweet  and precious gift from Nicole, a dear friend in Sandy Hook, Conn..
 It is the little pink glass Scotty dog, salt cellar, on the bottom shelf... It is so sweet...and goes perfect with my small collection of Scotty dog Salt & Pepper shakers. 
 And, Nicole also sewed this cute blue/pink Scotty dog.. I Love It!
While tiding up in my trailer, I found these 2 mini aprons,, that I had tucked away last year...
I made the pink one and Darlene, a sweet friend made the blue one for me.. 
 
Oh,, how I wish I could be camping.. but for now,, I will just be day dreaming about camping...

Le Chat... has escaped!

Well,,, Le Chat, has escaped from the barn,,,,
and is now out playing in the field with the Flamingo Palace...
 Le Chat was sooo happy to have her Solarlier hanging to catch some sunshine..
 and as always,,, got the Camp Sign up!
 hadn't  put much decorations out yet,,
which was a good thing, because a short while later we got some strong gusts of winds,, and things went everywhere.. '(that was yesterday)..
 
Then today,, we had to put all the stuff away because a thunder/rain storm was rolling in... we got a good round of lightening, thunder, rains and winds,,, thank goodness it only lasted for about 30minutes.
Tomorrow I will put everything back out.. and then maybe decorate a bit more..
At least the girls are outside frolicking in the pasture...
It is great to have a 14acre yard to play in!...

The Flamingo Palace has Escaped!

Well... the Flamingo Palace has escaped from the barn,,,
 Pulled her out,,, cleaned her up from her Winter's nap.. and hooked her up to electricity..
The Flamingo Palace is ready for Glamping!
 Blankets are laundered,,,,  the floor has been washed and the Winter dust bunnies have been dusted away...
 put a few goodies out ....
 all I need is the coffee maker, which is still tucked away in the cabinet...

I still can't decorate around the outside because of the winds... but hopefully in the next week or two the winds will die down so I can add my twinkle lights and other goodies around the outside...

 In the mean time,,, 'Le Chat'  my 1963 Serro Scotty is still in the Barn...
just waiting for her turn to come out and play... Soon wee trailer, Soon....
 
If you click on the photos, they will 'em-biggen' for a better view.

Come on Summer,, I (we) miss you!!
Is it time Yet???
