Mona,

I was watching that trailer on eBay. Glad somebody on the from the forum got it. Even better that it is in goods hands. Can't wait to watch the transformation.

Oh Mona, that little gem is AWESOME! It'll look great behind the Cayenne... maybe call her the "Little Habanero..."

Have a safe trip! Are you replacing the axle before you go home? I'm glad you bought another trailer.. I was going to miss your updates!

Wow, Mona! That sure is one little cutie! Congratulations. It's so fantastic that it's been emptied out for you. We all know how you can visualize the space so uniquely. Let the magic begin!

Best wishes and safe travels,
Lisa

Score!! Great find you guys. Too bad I work today in Studio City at my Salon, or I would hop over to Malibu to see your new project (Malibu is 10 min from me). Best of luck!

Hi Monah,

I was curious how the new AS is progressing. Anything new? Would love to see some pics.

Thanks for asking....I have gone kinda dark, huh? Trust me, I've been a very busy girl . Just picked up Bubble last week - what an adventure for the GlamperGirl who's never pulled a trailer but I did it all by myself!!!

Bubble is exactly like I thought and, of course, I've already defined the interior style. I'll start a new thread for her and post a link on here for all of you who would like to follow this journey!!

In the meantime, here's a pic, maybe two, of Bubble on her maiden journey as part if the Heath family

Of course I remember you two...you were so very sweet complementing our awning color choice . How fun that you met Liz & Jeff.....their AS is lovely and their dogs are beautiful.

Hoping to get started on Bubble early June (although I've already started buying stuff for her!). We'll most definitely be in Baker City...look forward to seeing you again in a few months

OMG, that is so cute! I've been missing the story of the recovery. Don't make us wait too long. I love the way it looks behind the Cayanne. Can't wait for more.

and why wouldn't I buy another AS and start this all over again?



For those of you who enjoyed (maybe that's a stretch of the imagination) this Thread...would love to have you join me on the new adventure.

Couldn't have done it without you.........
