The New Night Out

The old image of a travel trailer has had a facelift and will never be the same.

The average camper isn’t just Aunt Bunny and Uncle Bert, we now have the new era of Kips and Wally’s hitching these high glossed darlings at some of the hottest gatherings.

Pismo Beach has a draw for the hip crowd when it came to summer vacations, but with the wave of “shiny tin cans” the rallies are growing bigger and younger.

Car enthusiast have towed storage trailers for years and now have turned to the camper for style and functionality.

In many states such as Oregon, the food cart/trailer craze has exploded to a national level.

Once upon a time, a store front was the only option.

This portable real estate has changed forever the way business is presented.

Itty Bitty Logo! Isn't it CUTE! (proud mother voice)

When dreaming of a logo I went to a great site www.webdesignerdepot.com to 

get inspiration. One resounding message I got from all my net searches is that a logo

 must represent YOU.

You are more than welcome to spend time targeting your market with 

what you "think" they want, but you have to

remember, you came to the net to introduce YOU and your idea!

Train your audience upfront with you and what you are about...

Trust me you will spend more time living up to

an image that will ultimately be fleeting.

We are all looking to the web for what isn't

around the corner, so do what you do best.....

YOU!!!!

My virgin logo is hand painted and a true caption of me and 

what I bring to the wedding and event market..

Happy designing

Blogger Oh Blogger...why did I stray?

Dear friends, I must confess that I tried another blog site for my IBWC, and found it was way to slick and not enough ..ME!

So I went thru the blogs I love and there it was over and over again .blogspot.com.

So Why fight it... I am loving it every moment I slice my keyboard!

Thanks Blogger for the videos on You Tube. It just shows that you truly want a blogger to be successful!

AND HAPPY!
