LET ME INTRODUCE MYSELFGreetings everyone! My name is Mollie and I am an Oliver Travel Trailer, a Legacy Elite II to be precise. I was born in Hohenwald, TN and now reside in The Holler with Sharon.
There's an awfully sweet story about how I became known as Mollie. It involves Murphy the Camper Dog and Sharon. Murphy camped her entire life (14 1/2 years) with Sharon and was with Sharon and sister Becky when they visited my factory on Friday, April 6, 2018. In fact, it would be the last trip that they all took together, but of course, they didn't know that.
On the following Monday after returning home, Sharon had to have Murphy put to sleep. She was an old girl with some pretty serious health issues, but they all knew it was time. Murphy never got to camp with me, but I carry her with me in spirit, for I am Murphy's Ollie, better known as Mollie. Murphy the Camper Dog . . .
