These days, when I'm not chasing after my 11 month old, changing poopy diapers or doing heaps of laundry you can find me lost in a search for "vintage trailer" photos on google and my poor little notebook PC is slowly becoming inundated with inspirational photos of my dream canned ham. Obsess much?
(all photos below are from Pinterest.com, and I'm sure they were taken by amazing photographers. If I only had the sources of all the photos I would certainly give credit where it is due. Damn you Pinterest!)
Oh the fins! Enough to make a vintage loving gal swoon!
Just the decorating ideas alone have me squealing like a little girl! Hello gorgeous!
It's so shiny! There is an airstream parked around the corner from our house in our neighborhood. Sometimes, on my way home from work, I drive down a block out of the way just to oogle it
while I pass by.
What awesome family memories this would create! A girl can dream.
Camping has been part of my family life since I was a child. I remember my family's trips up to Northern California (Auburn) and to the gold rush history cities around Sacramento. We had a tent trailer at one point in Yosemite and during other camping excursions, at various ages, we had an old canvas tent that smelled like an old pair of socks left out in the rain for a week. The tent smelled but it was roomy and dad loved it! You could park a VW bus in there. Speaking of VW bus: I miss our old one....more on that later.
Hopefully one day my dream of owning (and decorating) a vintage trailer will come true. For now I'll continue to swoon (and drool) over pinterest photos and day dream about pine trees and campfires.
