�EDITOR'S RAVE�
I
sn’t it exciting when you first
sense that change in the air
that heralds the start of a
new season? For most of us
with a (let’s face it) obsession
with vintage trailers, when spring and
summer rolls around we’re all veritably
itching to hook ‘em up, roll ‘em out and
go camping again. I know I am!
I’m especially excited about this year
because I’m going to be going camping
with my sister in her long-awaited newly
restored vintage trailer. We’re both in our
forties now, but despite having enjoyed
many camping trips together as kids, this
will be the first time we’ve actually gone
vintage trailer camping together!
Fun! Fun!
I’m booked in to ten events and rallies
so far and no doubt others will come up
to fill in any gaps in my calendar. I’m so
looking forward to being back out on the
road and meeting up with as many of you
as possible. It’s going to be a busy year!
Rick the vintage trailer restorer magician
has been hard at work on my 1949 10-
foot Crown trailer Rosie (made by Al Rose,
the Trailer King in El Monte, California
according to her ID plate) and I have to
keep holding back from wanting to pester
him every day for updates and photos on
her progress. I’m like that annoying kid in
the back seat: “Are we there yet?”
I already have all the decorative touches
I want to put inside her all ready to go,
to make her cozy, homely and to feel like
my special space. I expect many a future
issue of Vintage Trailer Magazine to be
created from within her walls, so she has
to be a place of inspiration, creativity and
happiness!
If you’d like to share the story of your
special space and think your vintage
trailer is worthy of gracing the pages of
Vintage Trailer Magazine I’d love to hear
from you! I am always happy to consider
submissions from our readers, and love
seeing the many amazing things so many
of you have done with your tiny spaces.
I’d also love to hear your feedback on the
magazine; what you love, don’t love, any
suggestions you might have on anything
you’d like to see included that we haven’t
thought of yet. It’s your feedback that
helps create and shape the magazine
to what our readers want to see. It is
your input that and inspires me every
day. Send your emails to me at: editor@
vintagetrailermagazine.com
Happy Springtime everyone.
See you out there on the road!
