Hi Mary! I did get your email and tried to reply, but I could not get it to send out. We are traveling back from Big Bend Country and internet/cell is almost non-existent. My mail is all messed up. I’m glad you posted here, too!

Your Glamped Casita sounds awesome! It is such a great trailer. Always good to have quality tires, but one of the things I never had a problem with was sway. It pulls so well. I pulled it with a Diesel Jeep, however, so that might have something to do with it. But I use the Jeep to pull my Shasta, which blows all over the highway in Big winds. The Casita is just designed so well.

There is a group on Facebook called Casita Owners. I suggest you join it if you have not already. It is a great group of passionate owners. And there are glamped Casitas there, too.

Hate to say this, as I’m already thinking about when I will buy the next Casita, but I sold my little brown egg this past summer. A member in the Casita Owners FB Page now owns it. I sold it because I bought a Shasta, but I miss it very much. I’m sure I’ll own another in the future.

Hope you have subscribed to my page. When I get my email fixed I’ll send a reply to your note. Happy Trails!

I mentioned we were warned to get “travel trailer tires” for safety due to the sway.
Well, I have GLAMPED UP our Casita. It is Copper top and white bottom. Had decals taken off. Inside I did window treatments with valances of agate stone,burlap and leather strips. At the rally we were surprised we were the only ones that GLAMPED our Casita. My backsplash is also agate,tile and some small mirror squares. I changed out my knobs for cool fossils discs. Left the cushions and wood coloring, as despite the age of the Casita, they were in perfect condition! Oh,yeah, I Glamped the bathroom wall with faux painting around wood wording that says” Hello World”.
In other words, I made it ours! Such fun! Hope we get to meet others that like to Glamped! 😄

Thank you, Coleen. I must admit, the screen door project was my favorite, too! As for the tile backspace, so far so good. We took her on a long road trip from Texas to the Colorado mountains, and it hasn’t shown any signs of cracking. The back of the tile has a very sticky adhesive (If I tried to move after placing it would start to mess it up), and I used a sanded grout. I guess over time the grout could start cracking…if so, I will do a follow-up on the backsplash post. If you see “Free Range” on the highways please honk to say hello, and if you are camping anywhere in southeast Texas, let me know so I can see if Mr. Padilly and I can stop by to say hello. Happy Trails to you!

Especially, the screen door (which the 16′ doesn’t have, darn!) and the tile backsplash. I’m curious to see how the backsplash holds up on the bumps on your travels. Since I am now retired, I am looking forward to more time to spruce up our Casita and to hit the nation’s highways! We are planning a trip this spring and will be in Texas earlyin April. Maybe we’ll see you and “Free Range” while we’re in the Lone Star State! Happy travels!
Coleen

Chalk painted your tire cover…very cool! I would have loved seeing that up close!

I understand the “invade your privacy” feeling, lol. At times I’m like that too, especially during camp set up and take downs. Never sure if people are under a deadline. Darn, would have loved to talk with you! (FYI, Mr. Padilly is also a Mike).

I will look for you on Lou’s, and welcome to SOTF. When you get your SOTF information, make sure you register for the sub-group “Texas Sisters.” They hold meet-ups across Texas. I’ve not been able to join any of their meet-ups yet, because there have not been any in my area (those north and west Texas girls have all the fun!), but they look like lots of fun and a great way to meet Sisters locally.

Enjoy your new Casita! Look forward to seeing what you do with your egg shell. 🙂
