Elkhart, Indiana Vintage Trailer Museum

Elkhart Indiana is home to the vintage trailer museum.  These pictures are from several years ago when we stumbled upon this treasure by accident.  I believe they have moved it now to a new location and newer building.  I'm hoping to investigate that more and maybe take a road trip this summer to see the new building.    If anyone knows or has been there recently let me know...

Campfire Tonight at Dusk

One of the inspiration of the Vintage Trailer Park was that we could gather around the campfire and light up all the trailers on a beautiful summer evening sitting in vintage metal lawn chairs.  It was such a fun way to unwind after a long day.  Our fire ring was made from an old washing machine drum.  How redneck is that, but boy does it work.
We saw one being used at a camper rally that we attended.
What is so great is that it can be use anyway... totally portable.

A Camping Spree with Mr Magee...

Vintage Trailers are showing up everywhere.  It's cute on the cover of this child's book... "A Camping Spree with Mr Magee".  I love the term spree.... a free spirited outing... that really describes what vintage trailer people are like.  

Vintage Trailer Interiors: Pallets for Very Creative People..

These beautiful trailer interiors are pictures that I found of others people's creativity   When I first started decorating trailers over a decade ago I had never heard of anyone doing this... Now look how it's taken off. So many creative people out there... Making their trailers little pieces of vintage comfort cocoons.  

Good Job to all You Trailer Artisans.
