1.) when I was about 6 the bathroom was located right across from the backdoor. My mom would leave the bathroom door open when I was taking a bath and there was something in the yard that put a shadow on the back door window/curtain that looked just like a devil with horns. I would watch it the whole time I was in the bath, waiting.
2.) The dividing counter in the bar to the living room is the perfect way to divide a home and I've never had it as an adult and I crave it.
3.) I lived in 3 different trailers growing up and they were all exactly the same. After the trailer era, we started moving to a series of rundown farmhouses. We moved every year until I was 11.
4.) Once we lived in a giant, rambling farmhouse beside a lane that became a dirt road far back in the woods and an extended family lived there in a circle of trailers and it was the most mysterious place I've ever been.
I follow a vintage trailer FB group and daydream about selling all my fab finds, keeping my absolute favorite stuff that will fit, and moving into a gorgeous Carousel brand trailer next to a junkyard of my own making. That's my retirement plan.
This makes my heart smile! I’m also a trailer sister and celebrate the wonderful structure. I have a piece now at the culture center featuring three barn quilted trailers on a landscape. Lovely post and very reminiscent of my own WV childhood. Trailer projects sound great!
Right. Why the hell not. Loving this Keepsake.
I can’t wait to start reading yours!!!
Yes to a trailer project! I always think the same thing about “cool” container houses v. “uncool” trailers. WTH
