Lucy and Desi … honeymooning in a glamper?!

In this 1954 classic, you’ll laugh at all the antics that ensue when Lucy and Desi decide to buy a 40-foot trailer for their first home. And you’ll relate while Lucy glams up her new home and Desi grumbles his way down the highway.

And that trailer-park folks are neighborly sorts who turn the lovebirds’ rig into the wrong, wrong trailer by crashing the wedding night.”

If you like glamping, you’re going to love this DVD! Leave a comment telling us what you like most about my mother’s book, Glamping with MaryJane, and we’ll enter you in our giveaway. We’ll put your name in a hat and pull out the winner … stay tuned!
