The Happiness Exhibit

Rachel and Chris - our friend and my hubby

I'm one of those people who actually clicks on Facebook ads. Not all of them, of course, but sometimes one will peak my curiosity. The Happiness Exhibit is project sponsored by Lay's, and while I'm no big advocate of potato chips, I do like photographs of happy people.


Tim and Bree - our cousins


Jennifer and Jane - friends that are like family

The project is a collection of photos uploaded by everyday folk to their Flickr group--and they'll be using some at random in future promotions. Promoting HAPPINESS...now, that's an idea I like.


Aimee - our niece


Sarah and Brandon - friends that are like family


Chris and Tinkerbell - Disneyland '09


Naomi and Joshua - also friends, Nay = BFF

The images featured in this post are a small sprinkling of people that make me feel happy. Some were taken by me, some by them, and all make me smile.

Try posting your own Happiness Exhibit and be sure to share it!

Travel: Teardrop Trailers

A Teardrop is a compact travel trailer consisting of a sleeping cabin and a kitchen compartment. The Camp-Inn is styled after teardrop travel trailers from the 1930's and 1940's. A Teardrop gets its name from its unique streamlined shape. Teardrops were popular in the 1930-40’s and have recently been regaining popularity.

Their streamlined shape, small size and low weight allowed for easy pulling by the, under100 horsepower, engines of the 1930-40's. Teardrop trailers reduce gas mileage and you don't need a truck or large SUV. Teardrops are pulled easily by a mid size family car or smaller SUV's. The Camp-Inn trailer weighs as little as 850 lb. and as little as 130 lb. tongue weight.

Although Teardrops are small, there's have more than enough room for 2-3 people. The Camp-Inn sleeping cabin holds a Queen size bed (on 500/550/560 models), and room for storing gear. The sleeping cabin is hard sided and topped without a need for set up or tear-down. The sleeping cabin can double as storage/cargo space during travel.

The kitchen area is accessible from the outside rear of the trailer. The kitchen compartment, has ample storage space for a cooler, dry-goods, portable stove, cooking and eating equipment and utensils. The Camp-Inn kitchen has 5 feet of counter top and lots of storage. The kitchen can be used with minimal setup. It even works well for a quick meal at a roadside rest area.

It comes fully loaded (mattress, linens, pots, utensils, and more), so you do a lot less packing. Rentals are just $175 for two nights―a fraction of an RV’s rental cost.

You can pick up or some companies will deliver to local parks.

Insider tip: Extras like espresso makers and solar shower fixtures are available for $5 to $10 each.

Can I tell you how much I am LOVING this idea? Makes me want to start planning road trips for summer and fall right here in the middle of winter!

Decor Inspiration: Plates on a wall

Found this little bit of fun home decor this morning over at the equally fun blog of Modish Vintage. I really enjoy how the second display wraps around the corner; I'm just an asymmetrical kind of gal. Shapes, colors, patterns, textures, fun and funky--these photos are courtesy of Flickr (no surprise, that!)

From the very talented eye of Ar'alani--how funny is this?!  Pay her a visit and check out the entire Star Wars set on her stream, I promise, you'll be laughing in no time.  The captions and comments are almost funnier than the images!  Her nature photography is equally as wonderful...click, visit, view and enjoy!
