Preview Pics






Ok. Here are the first pics of the camper since we brought it home. I am hoping to restore the camper, but not to its original condition. I am just not that cool. I just want it campable (is that a word?)

OOPS!


We opened up the camper on Sunday with some help from friends and I forgot to take pictures. What a doof I am! We took out the table to set up outside and it fell over on top of my husbands foot. He put ice on it to keep down the swelling. Too worried about his foot and putting the camper back in place to take pics. Oh well, did get a pic of hubby.

That was a long drive!

So, I was checking out Craigslist like I have been for the past 5 years looking for a cool, cheap camper. Well, found an awesome Apache hardside camper for a good price. BUT it was in Miami. I put it out of my mind. Even though it was what I really wanted. Then it popped up again on Craigslist. I emailed for information and it was still available. I set up to drive down from Jacksonville on Sunday, but never heard back from the seller. I figured that it just wasn't the camper for us. I dismissed it and kept looking. But, I still had a nagging feeling about this camper. Sure enough they called on Monday. Long story, short...I drove down to Miami with my dad and picked it up. Turned around and drove it all the way back to Jax. For a total of 700 miles!
