I want a small camper van. It’s become my obsession. If I had one I’d drive it to Illinois where I could stay close to my daughter and her family without being in their way. I’d park it at the hospital where it could be a home away from home for me or whoever else in our support group needs one.
The only requirements for my camper are a bed and a potty. Actually I need a potty. The bed is optional.
Today I began actively shopping for a camper van, and let me tell you, they aren’t cheap. In fact, they’re the opposite of cheap. Even the cheap ones aren’t cheap. I told Studly Doright how much the one I really want costs. His response: “Sell more books.”
I’m working on it. I really am.

Peace, people!
I predict you’ll get your little camper, complete with potty. ❤

I’ve looked and almost had a stroke. I would actually love an old VW van- a Westfalia- but I could also buy half of a small house/condo for what they cost 😦

I think Studley will come through. You do have a noble cause for a camper.

I think so, too. In my head I’m picturing a bohemian wagon pulled by a pair of horses…or a pickup truck with a cab over camper.

We’ve looked at campers too. I’ve looked at small tiny campers without potties (!) as a she shed! But the prices are astronomical. Boo.

My husband is a really good “horse trader/negotiator. He’s also a good judge of mechanical soundness. I’m thinking about finding an older van—not a camper, mind you—and turning it into a camper. I’ve been watching some YouTube videos on the subject. It’s not terribly far fetched.

My partner’s niece did that. She was tree planting and converted her van so yes, it’s not far fetched at all! Good luck. 🙂

I understand there is quite a market in converting small work vans into campers

I think that’s likely the route I’ll go—IF, that is, I can get my husband to help me.

I’d love a camper van myself. I don’t even need the potty…just a bed will do!

For a woman of a certain age, a potty is a must. In my case, that age was 25.
