Dreams do come true...


We've been looking for the "perfect" camper trailer since this post, a '50s or '60s Shasta.  Well there a happened to be the perfect one on a road right by our house - everytime we drive by I told Aaron to pull over and I would go ask them if we could buy it, or if they were ever interested in selling it, to call us.  He ignored me.  Then on KSL yesterday night this beauty popped up.  A 1966 Shasta with the original wings and hardware!  I was sooo excited and called Aaron.  This was exactly what he wanted too, so he went to buy it this morning.  Lo and behold it just happened to be the SAME trailer I had wanted to buy for the last month!  Crazy - can I just say that I have great intuition!  (ha ha ha).   Well there is a lot of interior work to be done and Aaron has to fix the gas and electric lines - which we were planning on.  We'll document our progress as we go.  I feel giddy!

Sar-OMH! You found it! That's awesome. I have been dreaming of that camper since your post! Girl we are SO going to retro that baby up! I'm picturing red vinyl seats and your very own old fashioned coke machine-complete with coke!!! Hope Aaron doesn't mind! Super excited for you!
