We need your help!

We’re almost out of bumper stickers (I’d rather be glamping), so it’s time for us to come up with a new design for next year’s International Glamping Weekend. Molly came up with nine glamporific renditions for you to choose from. Help us decide! Pick your fav from our nine selections:

1.

2.

3.

4.

5.

6.

7.

8.

9.

My favorite is #2. What’s yours?

~

  1. JustB says:

    No. 2 is my favorite also – just edging out the one with the peace sign which speaks to the old hippie in me : )

  2. Shery says:

    They’re all good! I really like #9 (could it have a dark background color like dark turquoise or red so that the lettering stood a little more?). Also, I think #2 is SUPER clever!

  3. Kimberly says:

    Hmmmm, good ideas! 1 is easiest to read and I like the color combo… 2 is very creative, just hard to read, esp. if you aren’t a glamper! 9 is great with the reverse and font twists…I agree with Shery on the darker background, would “pop” it out more. I think that is why 3/4 caught my eye first… Can’t wait to see the final!

  4. Terry Steinmetz says:

    I personally like #2. It states what I want todo!

  5. Sacha says:

    LOVE #1 and #2. Also HUGE FAN of #7, #8 and #9. Do you have to have just one??? If you do them, I would LOVE to have a #1 bumper sticker!!

  6. Louise S says:

    I like #1 =)

  7. Winnie Nielsen says:

    My favorite is #7.

  8. ace says:

    My votes go to #2 and #5. Love ’em all Molly girl!!!! ace

  9. Cathy says:

    7 or 8, the font from 8 and the design of 7, with a tipped crown. perfect!

  10. Eileen Stone says:

    I like #5 best!

  11. Christina says:

    My favorites are 6 and 7!

  12. Daizy Bailes says:

    1, 4 or 9. 9 with a turquoise background. And 1 becoz its simple

  13. Kim says:

    I like #1 and #5…well, I like all of them, but hard to choose just one. Soooo, why not give the gals what they want? Several to choose from! :>)

  14. Brandy Ward says:

    #9 ABSOLUTEY!!! then #4 & 3. Or just all of them & there will be something different all over the world:)

  15. Monicarose says:

    1 & 9

  16. Jen in TX says:

    I like #5.

  17. Chrissy says:

    I like #8. Easy on the eyes when you see it while driving.

  18. Siobhan McBride says:

    I like 1 & 9 the best but would like to see them with the retro trailer in it!

  19. Lynnie C. says:

    Number 1 and Number 9. Number 2 is really interesting, but I find it hard to read. (For next time, how about some campers other than Shasta? 🙂 ) I really, really like what we have now…..if I had my druthers, I wouldn’t be changing it at all!

  20. Lisa says:

    You’re admission did not influence me. As soon as I saw #2, I loved it! It just stands out among the rest. #7 is a very close second.

  21. Elizabeth says:

    Hello ladies, I’m kind of new to this board & completely inexperienced in the Glamping community but depending on what your goal is for the sign(?) I would prefer to read: #1; #5; #7 or #9. Love puzzles & pictures but I’m a bit of a Nervous~Nelley when driving so if it is not clear & succinct then I would probably not try to read it while driving. To me, the ones I noted above tell the story & also direct more viewers to your website & the Glamping community. However all of your designs are creative but the bumper sticker sloagans may reach more Glampers on a different type of billboard?

  22. #9 without a doubt is my favorite.

  23. Lisa says:

    #2 is my favorite .. but being a tenter at heart I love #4 also… tenting is glamporous too you know!!!

Yodelayheehoo!

I have a question for you.

    When I was two, Granddad had a stroke and was confined to a wheelchair. I lived next door and spent a LOT of time on his lap. He taught me how to “odel”, sitting on the front porch watching cars go by. I’m 47 now and can still do it. Give it a try! It’s fun! It’ll make you smile at yourself.

  1. Winnie Nielsen says:

    How miserable that must be! So, what do you do to fix it? Is it fungal or bacterial? Being a city girl and have never owned a chicken, this is foreign territory to me. Surely the vet has some remedy to offer. Poor girl!

  2. Karin says:

    My hen, Flora, had the same problem once. It was awful because her poop would stick and cause her skin to become raw. I would bathe her (in the kitchen sink. No worries- I cleaned it up with bleach afterward.) with warm salt water daily until it cleared up. It took about a week. She didn’t seem to mind her bath. Sadly, I no longer have Flora or the other girls. 🙁

  3. julie says:

    I have a buff….same thing! Did you ever decide why it is???

  4. ace says:

    Hi Julie,
    Still working out what causes such a bummer of a bum. 🙁

    Very Cool, but I have to admit when I saw the headline, I though maybe I was getting lucky and you were actually COMING to NYC! Someday, I will get to meet you in person. If not on the road, then when I stay at your B & B, which is of course on my bucket list of things to do in the next few years before my 50th birthday!
    Hugs,

  2. Shery says:

    Wow, a billboard appearance in NYC … that is as big as big gets … the Big Apple. Congrats! Never missed Ed. Loved the little mouse puppet Topo Gigio.

  3. Winnie Nielsen says:

    Totally awesome! Farmgirls make it to NYC!!!

farm romance photoshoot

Here’s what we do in the middle of the day when it’s 98 degrees out. 

What I didn’t capture was David off to the right waving his hat to keep Emma looking forward. This will be one of hundreds of pics in the next book I’m working on, Milk Cow Kitchen. Stay tuned for this pic—Emma with lace halter looking at herself in a mirror. (It turned out ADORABLE!) The next time you see one of our farm romance photos, consider the “village” it took gittin’ ‘er done.

  1. Terry Steinmetz says:

    Another book–WOW! Can’t wait to see Emma in it!

  2. Winnie Nielsen says:

    Oh, I cannot wait to see Emma in her glammed up lace halter! Now that will be just the cutest. And a new book too? The topic already has me wanting to reserve a copy on Amazon. Are you estimating sometime in2013??? Hope, hope, hope??!

Be a pretty, polished (& healthy) chick!

The weather around here has been topping out at 98 degrees. And we’re not talking about the late ’90s boy band, though they’d match my fever pitch right now. 

(I know, I know, I have no room to complain when the midwest is hitting 118!)

After my crew and I finished my glamping book, my daughter surprised all of them with a gift certificate for a pedicure but I guess she didn’t think I’d want one. I took it as a sure sign I should follow suit when I received an unexpected package of sample polish last week from Chick Nail Polish.

I called around town and found someone who could give me a proper pedicure, something I haven’t indulged in for a couple of years. Who doesn’t want to sit inside an air-conditioned room and get a lil’ pampered?

    They like fig newtons? Wow, I buy large bags of dried meal worms to treat my hens & duckies, but fig newtons are a treat we could enjoy together! Thanks MJ!
