Did you name your camper?

[Kai in Seattle]

We call our 1973 amerigo, "Peanut." One shell with two nuts in it. We have a bed at each end and it's narrower in the center as well.


But the theme isn't peanuts. My first goal was "soothing," with pale natural wood tones, white painted basketweaving over natural wood or gray, white curtains with gray design, and pale blue touches.


But we gradually created a zoo.


We have a tin pug coffee plaque, a blue & white sheep throw, a blue reindeer throw, a tiger blanket, a dolphin blanket, a hound-dog neck pillow, 3 pug pillows, a ladybug colander, fish linens, a fish wall hook, starfish, crab and snails on a beach towel curtain, a monkey name "logo," a pug decal, dog footprints on the windows, a Sac n Fox thunderbird decal, and two live pugs.


All the animals in the zoo
Are jumping up and down for you,
Hoping that you'll be sure and plan
A day at the zoo (in the rig) as soon as you can!...
Animals,
Animals,
Animals here and there...
Animals animals, animals, animals...
Animals everywhere!
-- from the 1960s Portland Zoo theme song

I may have already posted this, but we have named our campers Daisy Mae after my paternal grandmother Daisy Mae Campbell Alguire, who was the first person I knew as a kid to have a travel trailer. She was about as cool a grandmother as you could get!

We thought of not naming it when we had it built, and just follow Jim Bennett's lead and call it "the trailer". But where's the fun in that?

Besides, we bought it because we were tired of tent camping. So it has a name, but tells our story too.

...so, may I use it too? Only informally, I promise.

We just acquired a Play Mor II this week and my wife is already planning the interior decor with a beach theme so we will probably name it "The Beach House". We don't need two but could not pass up this one due to the price and we figured our family can use it to go camping with us

I have named my Cadet the Sea Shell, inspired by the beachy theme I am going for with her.

I like that. Simple, unpretentious, and it will fit your theme.

We named our Boler 13 "Shellie"

Maybe spell the first name Perris instead of Paris?

Then it's a play on words.

[alan H]

Actually my iPhone changed it / auto correct
It is was called
Perris Hilton

I'm jealous! I'd love to find a fixer-upper nearby!

Prairie Schooner, similar to the name given to the settlers crossing the great plains, taken at Escape's factory.

Past Tents -- strikes me that Past Tense wouldn't be a bad name, either...

Good point.
