Rascal's Roadshow: My Sticker Collection

πŸŽ’ Rascal’s Roadshow: Sticker Love & Laptop Woes πŸŽ‰


Hi friends! πŸ‘‹ I’ve been lagging a bit on getting my blog out πŸ˜… Between the battery dying on my laptop πŸ’»πŸ’€ and blowing the transmission on our truck 🚚πŸ’₯, I was waylaid for a bit... but I’m back on track! πŸ™Œ

I'm working on Part 3 of my Astoria, Oregon blog 🏞️ and will have it out very soon. But in the meantime, I wanted to share something I’ve mentioned in several blogs…

🎟️ My Sticker Albums!

When you’re a full-time RVer living in a 30-foot travel trailer 🚐, you quickly learn that you can’t collect shot glasses 🍸, souvenir mugs ☕, or shiny bling and baubles πŸ’ from every stop on the map. Space is limited and so is our weight allowance! 😬

Don't be a Tacy (Lucille Ball). She amassed a huge collection
of goodies, including ROCKS, that she stashed around 
The Long, Long Trailer. Great old movie...give it a watch!

That’s why collecting stickers became the perfect solution! πŸ’‘
They’re compact 🧳, lightweight πŸͺΆ, and filled with memories πŸ’–

I’d love to say it’s a money-saver too πŸ’Έ… but wow, some of those stickers come with sticker shock! 🀯 I’ve paid anywhere from 25 cents πŸͺ™ to over $12 πŸ’΅ for one sticker. Crazy, right?! I do buy less expensive packages of miscellaneous stickers from Amazon and use those to fill in pages.

But flipping through the pages of my sticker albums always makes me smile 😊 So...worth it!
They’re like little paper time machines ⏳πŸ“’ that take me back to the places, vibes, and weird little roadside stops we’ve loved πŸ’•

πŸŽ₯ I’ve made two short videos using photos from my phone to show off the collection. I think you would have enjoyed them! πŸ˜• Unfortunately, they were both too long for Blogger  πŸ’” …so, instead you get regular ol’ photos in a collage format. I’ll continue to work on making videos for future blogs though! In the meantime I hope you enjoy the pics!

🚨 WARNING: Some stickers include a little salty language and a couple of political zingers ⚠️ So if that’s not your jam, feel free to skip past those. I don’t want anyone triggered… just stickered πŸ˜†

If you have questions about any of the places I’ve collected stickers from, drop them in the comments πŸ’¬ and I will respond! πŸ₯°

Bonus! You’re also getting a sneak peek πŸ‘€ at some of the places I’ll be writing about in the coming weeks. So, stay tuned! πŸ˜‰

And yep… my collection may give away a little bit of my personality 🀭
My vibe is a hippie-fantasy-loving soul with a thing for anything fantastical: gnomes πŸ§™‍♂️, mushroom art πŸ„, sasquatch, peace signs ✌️, classic VWs πŸšπŸ’›, and more! πŸ‘½

Let me know in the comments if you have any favorites! I’d love to hear which ones catch your eye πŸ‘️✨

EXCITING NEWS

 After checking out this blog my wonderful son, Derrick, informed me the stickers are a bit hard to see in the photos. He suggested I make an unlisted YouTube video and share the link here! He's BRILLIANT! So...click the link below and you can see all my stickers in one video! What would I do without that kid? πŸ’—

 Click here to watch the video! πŸŽ₯

My little sticker books. The second one is almost full and I just ordered two more!
I'll post a link to Amazon below the sticker photos.
They have several different covers to chose from.
The page material makes it easy to move, or remove, your stickers!


πŸ‘† To enlarge the photos on you laptop 
just give them a click and zoom in! πŸ‘†



























🎯 Next up: Astoria, Oregon – Part Three… I promise!

🐾 Until next time:
