Hen23's Journal~Goodbye

[keljonma]

I just received not one but FIVE emails from DH with pictures of vintage camper trailers! Seems he's been bitten by another bug... We saw one on the way home, early 60s, small, rounded. I think he thinks he's too old to be sleeping on an air mattress in a tent or something.

Sounds like my dh, H23!

Truth be told, I think it's a great idea. I've been looking around Craigslist and the small 1960s campers are out there! DH has all the skills needed to restore one. He even reupholstered his 1957 Buick on his own. I definitely am not a big RV person either, even if I won the lottery. I just don't care for tents that leak and air mattresses that absorb the cold from the ground. My back is suffering after three nights of 40 degree temperatures! If we can find one that's affordable I'd be thrilled.

They sure have cute little boys where you went ! Funny how the same one showed up so often.

Beautiful, beautiful country.

Thanks!!
I can't believe I've never been up to the Adirondacks before! I always seem to end up in Western NY state where I have family. We'll be back. Lake Placid itself was a little nuts with tourists so we avoided it. I wish I was in better shape and could do some serious hiking!
