This quilt block shows an orange little rounded camper trailer. This trailer is on gray stilts at the moment, though it does have a big black wheels in the bottom center (with a dary gray hubcap piece of fabric). On the left side is a teal door, and on the right side is a window with little polka dot drapes at the top. Above that, on the dome of the orange camper is an antenna with a red little flag attached to it. This is all against a light blue salmon-patterned background.

I think I would be glamping in this sweet little camper.

I am not a camper. I don’t sleep in a tent, and I don’t cook over a fire. I don’t poop in the woods.

But… I might like camping with electricity, a bed with sheets, a bathroom, and hot water; you know, glamping.

River Run offers glamping. I don’t remember the first time I heard the term glamping, but it made me giggle, and it still does.

However, I think its time has come for me anyway.
