Anyone else love Wisco like we do? One of my fav styling assignments that’s staying on the camp mantel: Glued an old paint by number to a chunk of wood, jig-sawed it into the shape of our beloved cheese state & shoved a vintage clock into it. #CraftingNerd (had @cbobfoto shoot it)

Our first camp truck on Wandawega drive. A decade ago we found her on the east coast for 1900 bucks (with just a little love and a spit shine she gave us another 40k good miles) She was never perfect, but a solid driver and wood-hauling workhorse for us for years. Wish we could still find steals like her today. Anybody else get sentimental for their old rides? #TobogganTime #OldGirl

Happy birthday to the most patient, supportive guy in the world. Charlie and I feel damn lucky to have him. #BestDadEver (thanks Theron Humphrey for the shot. @thiswildidea )

That day when it snowed so much we couldn’t see our tracks (and when she was still tiny enough to fit in her toddler sled, and not embarrassed to hang out with mom) Cant wait to do it again this wknd #SleddingWithCharlie #HangingOntoThis

Today’s score! (and current Obsession): finding these vintage GANT men’s shirts (ala; Yale-math-club-goes-camping for-the-weekend-style). Inspired to learn everything about their American brand roots since they’ve launched the Wandawega SS15 Kids line. Anybody know where we can get more of these? #TreasureHunting #allplaidout #maxwastler @christopherbastin @gantrugger @gant1949

Left over camp parts from one of my favorite magazine styling assignments. (The newspaper is from a huge 1920s bound book from a Janesville, Wisco archive that I love to dip into on occasion- every page is a surprise) the photo is of my grandfather @juliastotz @thefoxglovestudio @emilykberman

SNOWGLOBE (what it’s like when you are sitting up in the treehouse library perch surrounded by windows and snow falling) — See @ninagraceless for more views from her camp visit this past weekend. #TinyHousesOfWandawega
