The #Paprtrail3 is finally beginning! Scotty, (my 1976 vintage camper), Big Daddy (Ford F-150) and I will travel down the East Coast from Virginia to Florida for a week, then head out to Texas, New Mexico, Arizona and California. We will drive up the California coast from San Diego to San Francisco, then out through Utah, Colorado, Nebraska, Iowa, Illinois, Ohio and finally home! All along the way, I will be teaching classes in independent stores and other venues using my Sizzix, Clearsnap and Craffiti Direct branded products. I’ll also be meeting up with celebrity crafters and bloggers (just wait till you see who they are- I mean we’re talking famous here!) and in general letting you know what life on the road is like.
I am hoping and praying I don’t have car trouble or any disasters, but know in two months there are bound to be some problems- I can only hope they are nothing I can’t handle!
Here’s my schedule. If you live anywhere nearby, I would love to see you. It’s always so much fun to meet up with people I am friends with on Facebook. Why not take a class and support your local independent scrapbook store? And hey, you will also be part of the Paper Trail! OK, so here we go…

Here I will also meet up with my designer friend Cheryl Boglioli of Cheryl’s Window who will be my wingman for the Florida leg of the journey. I am so glad she offered to come along!
After class, Cheryl and I will travel on down to the Fort Lauderdale area where we will visit my daughter Jessica, her husband Jason and two grandsons, Daniel and Hunter. Jess has quite the business going- she knits and sells props to newborn photographers. She left the Coast Guard to stay home with her boys.
While in the area, we will meet up with our friend Hailie-Jo of Crop Stop too.

Wow Eileen, that is certainly a huge trip – you are covering nearly all of America! That is impressive indeed. I wish you safe travels, lots of fun and good hotels! I will be following along and enjoying it with you, just wish I could be at one of those venues. Take care! Anne x
Thanks Anne- I will pretend you are with me and you can be my traveling buddy 🙂 Thanks for you always kind comments!
Hi CardMonky- thanks for riding along with the #Paprtrail3 🙂
What a fabulous trip Eileen, looking forward to reading all about it…this time last year we were preparing for our latest trio down the California Coast from San Francisco to San Diego, visiting all my family along the way..aah to be doing it again this year…no matter how many times I’ve made the trip, it’s always different and new, hugs Carole Z X
So envious of all the stops you make!! Would LOVE to have you make a stop in the forgotten state~Vermont! We would welcome you with open arms and lots of REAL VT maple syrup! None of the brown glue most states pass off as syrup!! Aunt Jemima isn’t welcome here but Eileen Hull would definitely be welcomed! Hope to hear that you will be stopping by to visit us!!
Barb I love VT! We went to Lake Bomoseen last year and had a great time. I will put it on the list for future #paprtrail adventures!
I second the motion, Barb! VT is such a beautiful state!
I like VT- maybe next time!
wow! what a schedule. I take off my hat to you…..I would never travel that much by myself. have fun! safe travels.
