double wide dreams in a single wide world

Uncategorized / January 2, 2013

my dad was raised on a big tobacco farm in southern virginia, and recently, brian meares’ homesteading itch has gotten the better of him, so we’re now proud owners of an old 70s camper that we hauled up to the farm this weekend.

brian wanted a sugar shack to stay in when he hunts, and i liked the idea of a camping cabin to bring friends to in the spring and fall.  we christened it this weekend in the 25 degree weather, and i have to admit – i’m sort of excited about the prospects of my new farm getaway-styles.  the camper sleeps 5 comfortably, and has a cute little banquette for dining (cushions are getting recovered asap – you’re going to love it – but what am i going to do with those window treatments?!).

there’s a working kitchen with a sink, a 4 burner cooktop, a stove, tons of storage, and a bathroom with a shower.  brian landscaped (he would say bushhogged) the spot where he put the camper so there’s a front and back yard, which will accommodate lots of tents among all of the little trees he left.  an inaugural spring jamboree is already in the planning.

while we were there, we got a start on the firepit, found a coyote carcass and brian took this picture while the other sisterwives were making dinner.

"Date 1944. Sorority sisters at the University of Texas." by sdasfvrce in OldSchoolCoolOn East Lake Shore Drive, this co-op project combined 2 separate units last updated in the '60s into 1 lavish apartment with a gut-remodel, relocating the kitchen to the front of the apartment overlooking the lake.  Interior by Summer Thornton Design
ter bath, Thornton juxtaposed diagonal swaths of Calacatta Monet marble with Breccia stone to distract from the room’s asymmetrical layout while providing a unique take on tradition, highlighted by the Waterworks fixtures and a freestanding tub by Ann Sacks. The oak paneling was detailed with black molding, a reference to the hand-painted ceiling in the living room.
