I admit it. I am not a camper. I’m not even an outdoorsy type. I prefer a comfy chair and a good book to a walk in the woods or\u00a0an evening\u00a0around a campfire.\u00a0But my aversion to roughing it disappeared when the\u00a0T@bitha<\/a>, our glamping style TAB, made its way up my driveway.<\/p>\n

I\u00a0couldn’t help breaking out in a big grin when I saw its cute and\u00a0glossy red and white body. And my grin got even bigger when I peeked in the window. Happily, that peek gave me a\u00a0glimpse of\u00a0the T@bitha’s\u00a0neutral interior. This includes Wales grey upholstery, eco-friendly slate-colored Marmoleum flooring, and white and espresso blazed birch cabinetry. I’d drooled over those features when I saw them in the\u00a0brochure<\/a>. Now I was seeing\u00a0them in person.<\/p>\n

\"T@bitha
The T@bitha all glamped up and ready for the road trip from Ohio to Elkhart, Ind., for the Elkhart RV Open House.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

The T@bitha’s\u00a0neutral color scheme appealed to me for a number of reasons. Not the least of them was the opportunity the trailer\u00a0gave me\u00a0to use some of my colorful vintage gear and decor. These ranged from a tall\u00a0round\u00a0Skotch Kooler to a 50s-style plaid picnic basket, to a quilt and pillows I crafted from an embroidered tablecloth and vintage fabric from\u00a0my neighborhood thrift shop. I had been collecting these items for years. Now I was\u00a0excited to take them on the road.<\/p>\n

On the road\u00a0to Elkhart in the T@bitha<\/h3>\n

Adding more excitement to my experience was the fact that I would be on the road\u00a0to\u00a0the annual Elkhart RV Open House. That’s\u00a0where nuCamp RV would unveil the prototype<\/a> for its much anticipated TAB 400. The event,\u00a0expected to draw 4,000 dealers, runs\u00a0today through Sept. 22.<\/p>\n

We arrived at\u00a0the Elkhart Campground an hour before sunset, which made setting up a challenge. That was particularly true since I haven’t camped since 1975, and I have never camped in a camper. I told you I’m not a camper!<\/p>\n

However, nuCamp RV<\/a> Master Technician Ed answered the call and helped me finish my set-up. I spent the rest of my evening in air-conditioned comfort. I read. I\u00a0let Frank\u00a0Sinatra “Fly Me to the Moon” via the bluetooth stereo system and its three speakers. Then, “In the Still of the Night,” I flipped the sofa cushions down and stowed my extra pillows and quilt in the handy storage area behind them. I then turned in for the night on a bed roomier than the queen-size I have at home.<\/p>\n

Up close with the T@bitha<\/h3>\n

Of course,\u00a0last night and this morning, I had to take some photos to show you how much fun it is to get settled into this sweet and special little camper. And that’s true even if\u00a0you’re like me —\u00a0a glamper, not a camper!<\/p>\n

\"The
The T@bitha’s sofa is like having chaise lounges for two, with an individually controlled reading light on each side. It’s easy to add your own touches\u00a0with vintage pillows and a quilt. Anything goes with the T@bitha’s neutral decor. And\u00a0at its low setting, the table functions nicely as a coffee table.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
\"So
So handy! The ledges above both side portal windows are perfect for keeping small items, such as keys, liquid soap, phones, magazines, journal, and ebook reader, within easy reach.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
\"The
The T@bitha’s kitchen has everything — a glass-top sink with folding faucet, a glass-top two-burner propane stove, and a roomy three-way refrigerator. It’s the perfect spot for making\u00a0morning coffee while looking out the kitchen window.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
\"When
When raised up, the table provides a great surface\u00a0for blogging — and other such things. You\u00a0can multi-task by watching a TV or movie favorite on the 19-inch entertainment system.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"Of
Of course, even glampers take to the great outdoors once in a while, as long as they have a comfy seat — and the T@bitha makes the perfect backdrop.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
\"Just
Just make sure to wipe off your flip-flops before you come back on in!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
