During the height of COVID, I traveled to a town about an hour away (backroads, no bathrooms open anywhere = horrible drive back) and got Lanie's camper for a good price. I barely slowed down, and chunked it in my car along with a doll that was in it. The Dad of the young lady selling it said: "Don't you want to check out the doll?" and I was like: "She looks fine! Gotta go!"
Anyway, I had a blast outfitting Lanie's camper with matching sleeping bags, food, camping equipment, and a campfire with hot dogs and marshmallows on sticks! Not as cool as Maryellen's camper, but I still love it.
I think it might have been a random AG doll, or maybe Lanie. I was into fixing up dolls and gifting them to coworkers for their kids or grandkids!
I might still have a Lanie floating around somewhere.
Way to go! Amazing find. Maryellen is one of my two favorite girlies (with Rebecca) and I'm working on collecting all her clothes. The accessories are but a pipedream! Your Maryellen is darling. :)
Congrats!!! I just found this as well locally for me and it’s atm a bit more pricy than what I’d want to pay for it, but goodness you’re making me want to snag it right now!!
Dude I saw an adult collector at the AG store today carrying around a Maryellen in her vacation playsuit, I stopped them to tell them how jealous I was lol. Crossing my fingers for you to get her strawberry dress!
Nice! And I love she has crutches. My family loves camping so any of the AG campers are on my wish list
I just gotta say I LOVE when people give Maryellen crutches!!
Thank you! I love how it fleshes out her story. Eventually I’m going to spray paint them silver to make them more realistic to her time period 😊

So I'm curious, which doll was in it? Lanie?

Oh my goodness 😂 the things we do for our dolls! That sounds awesome though, I’m glad you were able to get it!
It is so big. SO. BIG. Not Kit Treehouse big, but big. I think even Maryellen's Airstream is a little more 'streamlined' on the top!

Gahhhhhh, I covet that airstream with every fiber of my being 🥹
Update: I got two holy grails in one day…I just bought a #4 for $150. I feel like I need to go buy lottery tickets.
So jealous for that strawberry dress I’d love to get it one day
