Blissfully Tricia!

There's a special gypsy girl out there who flits from show to show selling her amazing wares and laughing and loving the ride along with the rest of us lucky enough to call the open road and a cow pasture in Texas or a warehouse parking lot in California "going to the office!"

She shows up and sets up alongside the rest of us... But when she's done with that, she chronicles the lives of us gypsies...and shows the rest of the world all the amazing treasures and adventures that find us through her pictures, her magazine and her blogs and links ...and she pretty much helps our gypsy world go round.

Her name is Tricia Samsal of the vintagy and vixeny world of vintagebliss.typepad.com. (Pictured here with me at a gypsy gala.)
During many a roadtrip together (last one involved border patrol and a miniature truckstop kitten named Kitty Galore) she has become a good friend and someone I admire for her talent (check out her creepy chic doll head bottles), sense of adventure, bootstrapping, good hair in impossibly humid weather, and her "as long as we have glitter and batteries in the camera"...outlook on life.

This past weekend Tricia got a little gift from the gods...Actually from the lovely Linda Carpenter, owner of the uber chic Urban Barn in Escondido.
Tricia is now the proud owner of a little vintage honey that is being transformed into the Bliss Lounge.
We will be traveling together with our gypsy trailers...so be sure to look for us out there on the highways and byways!

See Ya'll Down the Road!
