And it begins..

Today was the day to start one of the biggest projests I have undertaken.

I took the flooring out in my Airstream today. It had the worst carpet.

There had been some kind of animal living in it for the past several years.

So with crow bar and hammer in hand I spent the day on my knees.

I took out 4 bags of carpet of to the garbage.

I opend up the awning today also. There is one small rip in it. But is easy to fix.

Ya!! Now the dreams start. Picking out colors, flooring,countertops,cabnets.

It is going to be some fun!!!! Ready to go with me......Stay tune..

Can't stop dreaming!!!!

I spend my every waking moment thinking about my new trailer. What color to paint the inside! what kind of flooring to put in it! What style should I do!. It's like moving into a new apartment and starting all over.
I spend most of my last day off cleaning it. I vaccumed until I was blue in th face. Thankful that nothing jumped out at me. I have the feeling that there was some kind of furry thing living in there. There are bits of insulation in places your wouldnt expect to find it. I got as far as the bedroom before I had cleaned enought for the day.
So I am taking ideas for names to name my baby. I really like the name Wish-kah! That was the name of my first husbans dogs name. And I hae always liked it. And i have wished for my Airstream for so long. But I have also considered the name of Airy- Fairy.....Thats kinda me too.
As I spend time in her and get to feel the feelings it will come clear to me.

New Baby

Well she has made it home...Sunday went to Bend to get my new baby. The trip over was nice.It was clear skies in centeral Oregon. It took several hours to check her out and make sure we were up for the trip. We locked her up and hit the road.Stopping in Madras to see if everything was going ok. It was so hearded over the mountain. All was well until snow!!!! At one point my baby was stopping traffic. And not because she is so pretty. Once you stop on black ice it is hard to get started again.
After 14 hours we made it to babies home. Atleast for a while.
I spent most of Tuesday cleanering and there are many more day ahead. I want to get her cleaned up and then I can start one at a time getting things checked out.
It will be a fun trip and i will take you with me......

After many month of not posting on my blog.I will add a few new stories and get you up to speed on whats going on in the farmgirls life.

I spent 8.5 months being a camp hostess. What a blast that was. I met some of the best people and still stay in contact with them. It was a great spiritual growning time for me. I learned a lot about myself as well as others. I lived in my 16 ft vintage travel trailer. I had no hot water and no bathroom. I was lucky enough to have that all in the camp ground.
After reading Eat Love Pray two times and seeing the movie. This was my own spritual journey.

And time goes on!!!

It has been sometime since I have posted anything here. So I will get with it.
I have been back for the journey for 3 months now and getting settled into my new place.
I have found an appartment in downtown Milwaukie. Very nice. Can walk to many things. And farmers market every Sunday. It is very Metro.
Unlike my life on my trip. I will tell you a little about it and more as time goes on.
I spent 8 months in Tuggman State Park in Southern Oregon Coast. It is located right on
the sand dunes. However I didnt go play on then. I met many people that did.
I lived in my 16 ft vintage travel trailer. Very small but home. I felt very at home there. Spent most of my time outside. Walking around the camp ground or over to the lake. Many hours to think and daydream. I so miss that. I have learned that I am a person that enjoys being by myself. I like to have people around but not in my space. Even if it is only 16 feet.
I love my place now but there is a part of me that misses my small space.
