Glamping It Up for the Camera
Every now and then, the Girl Camping Girls are called upon to assist with photo shoots for magazines, newspapers, and books.
Like the one yesterday for a forthcoming glamping project by MaryJane Butters, of MaryJane's Farm. Miss Mig's '71 Shasta compact served as the backdrop and GCG's place was the location. (It's one hill over from MaryJane's Farm.)
GCG's '72 Red Dale was pressed into service as dressing room for the models.
Here's Miss Mig, tending to some final styling details, with MaryJane at the camera.
The very glamorous dresses matched the colors of the trailer.
Props: Lots of cowgirl boots and princess shoes!
Miss Mig, who's a professional artist, was right at home dealing with prop management. (She did all the painting of her trailer, too.)
GCG took behind-the-scene snapshots while the real photogs, Alicia and MaryJane, took the photos that'll eventually end up in print.
See that mountain snow in the background? Several fresh inches fell just last week, so there was no guarantee that the models wouldn't freeze to death in bare-shoulder dresses. But the first warm day of spring happened to show up on the appointed day, so all the smiles were genuine!

Get Ready for National Glamping Weekend, June 2-3
Mark your calendar for the first weekend in June: It's National Glamping Weekend, as declared by our friends and neighbors at MaryJane's Farm. MaryJane's staff has created a whole new website dedicated to the concept, with many linked resources for you to visit.
MaryJane will host a Farmgirls on the Loose glamping get-together in Coeur d'Alene, Idaho, on June 2-3.
Meanwhile, Girl Campers and members of Sisters on the Fly will be glamping it up at Riverside Park in Spokane, Washington, May 31-June 3 (in conjunction with the Farm Chicks Antique Show.
But you don't have to attend an organized event to participate in National Glamping Weekend! You can glamp it up in your own yard, at a girlfriend's place, at a state or national park, in a cabin somewhere, or even at a hotel or resort.
Getting into the spirit when others around the country are doing it, too--that's the weekend in a nutshell.
Are you in? We are!
