A cute restyle of a 2007 Gulfstream Ameri-Lite MB Travel Trailer, 22' long. Follow along as I speed through how I decided to restyle the inside of my TT. Cosmetic and configurations were both RESTYLED. Paint, sticky wallpaper, backsplash, new seating, new bed configuration ALL new bedding, bed frame, storage containers are all new. New dining area, with a fold down table, allowing for maximum space. I have taken this on about 10 trips, with the furthest to LaFayette, IN (or maybe Canon City, CO, you do the math) It has held up beautifully. If you're interested in it, let me know. It might be time for my 'next' project this spring. I can give you a listing of all the 'new' things that have been done~LED lights, tires, batteries, the list is long. It is sound and in GREAT shape. whimsywondering@gmail.com

Coolers are an investment these days...in order to get a good one, you have to do some homework. I have studied the RTIC cooler for over a year now. I compared it with 3 other similar brands, styles, shapes and it remained my #1 choice. I'll be giving them a fair shake over the next few months. Come on back and look for my updated videos SUBSCRIBE to my channel to know when I load new videos. I'm gaining my adventure legs~traveling in my travel trailer and doing OHV tent camping.

Sharing what the inside/outside of a RTIC hard sided cooler looks like. Before you purchase you might be doing some research. I've looked at coolers for a year...and finally pulled the plug on this one. Why? Size. Money. Weight. How long will the ice or frozen blocks stay COLD is important. I'm tired of buying ice AND I'm tired of flopping tops on my arms. Does the top part of the chest stay put? I'll be working with #RTIC brand coolers in the next few outdoor adventure trips and hope to come back and update my thoughts. Stay tuned!

Watch as I unpack my 2 new coolers~soft and hard sided!

8 Days. 225 Miles 27 Women. Who doesn't survive? A grand adventure down the Colorado River with a loosely associated group of women through the "Girl Camper" group. We met up in Flagstaff, AZ. Set out early on a Friday morning and traveled through the Grand Canyon. We were outside 24/7....sleeping under the stars, most of us slept on sleeping mats on top of the sand. Some of us chose tents. We faced our fears, met our deepest challenges and kept on rolling down the river. There are not 'TAP OUT' buttons here...you make it by getting through it. You make it because the people that are around you encourage you, lift you up, give you a shoulder to cry on. Guides included!! Amazing, wonderful women. Give me a comment or a LIKE. Visit my blog at whimsywondering.com A creative at heart~ looking for an outlet during this 'great pause' and found that ADVENTURE is my spirit animal. Go solo, go with friends, family, groups ~ the point is to GO!! Face new challenges and discover that you are stronger than you believe. Do hard things. Go places. Meet new people. Discover yourself. Peace my friends~ Karen Looking for my next Whimsy Wondering Adventure!!

A wonderful, beautiful, serene trip down the Colorado River, through the Grand Canyon. 27 women, 5 guides, 22 "Girl Campers", 8 days, 2 boats, 2 groovers...hot breakfast, chilled, fresh, chopped lunch and hot dinner every day. Beautiful scenery, Belly laughs, heart swells, songs in slot canyons, spring fed waterfalls~ where we giggled and laughed getting our bodies in the chilly water. 8 days at 24/7 outside~most of us slept on a mat on the sand. Most of us became one with the sand, the ants, the experience of living IN nature. There were no 'tap out' buttons~ you committed to staying with the group~and through all of that we came out changed. The magnificent beauty that surrounded us, the heat that beat down on us, the sand that exfoliated us, the ants that wanted to bite us~the arms that hugged us, the laughs that bonded us, the reasons we chose to go.. shared with all of us.....the trip filled with memories of a lifetime. Thank you to all who shared photos and videos. xoxo Please share, hit a thumbs up or down, watch until the end. Leave me a comment~ Coming up: the HUGE waterfall and pool where we shed many pounds of dirt in our hair and on our body~ Day 6 helped to clean us up and lift our spirits. Enjoy!
