Glitter Glamper Girls

Priorities, Schmi-orities.  With just over two weeks until we hit the road, there are very very important things to get done!!!  Aside from the obvious (hair, mani/pedi & clothes.....of course!!!), we need to make sure that we're safe, sparkly and clearly identifiable when we roll into Jackson Center!!

SAFETY:  
Towing Checklist - CHECK!
Tow Vehicle Trip Inspection & Oil Change - CHECK!!

SPARKLY:
Tow Vehicle & Airstream Detailing - CHECK!  (thank goodness for awesome dealerships!)

CLEARLY IDENTIFIABLE (plus a little...ok a lot of...SPARKLE):
Glitter Flamingos - CHECK!

Lucy & I spent the afternoon "glittering" pink flamingos.  She had been out of town spending time with family for what seemed liked forever so it was awesome to spend time with her.  With lots of Elmers spray-on glue, glitter and giggles we managed to create some pretty awesome beauties.  There will be no doubt the Chic Roadtrip is in 'da house when you see these sparkly creatures (including the two of us if we can't get this stuff off of our clothes & fingers) in front of our Airstreams.



MISCELLANEOUS VERY IMPORTANT STUFF:
Alumapalooza Happy Hour Hosting - OH YEAH!
Airstates Checklist to Chart our Adventures - AWESOME!!
Pillows, Bedding & Food - ABSOLUTELY!!!
Final Planning Meeting - TOMORROW NIGHT - Whoo Hoo



Lots of emotions right now - excitement and maybe a little fear of the unknown; amazement at the outpouring of support and friendship this little blog has generated; utter terror at the cost of gas, and love for our family.

We can't wait to reunite with old friends, and to make a ton of new ones.  Keep an eye out for a couple of GlamperGirl Bambi's, a gaggle (is that the term?) of Glitter Flamingos and the four of us: Thelma, Louise, Lucy & Ethel...clearly identifiable by our smiling, happy faces.


Cheers!
Thelma

    1. Hey Pennie Lane - I have a friend who lives in her AS on Suavie!!! We'll most definitely take you up on that offer.
      I haven't heard the Ode but am now going to hunt it down.
