Our first trailer rally: Roslyn 2016

I had been keeping in touch with the previous owner and knew he was going to attend the 2016 Roslyn Vintage Trailer Rally, June 16-19th. I wanted to show him the progress I had made on the project so decided to attend. This would be my first trailer rally. Very exciting!

In early May I made a list of what had to be done in order to make the trailer not only livable for the weekend but safe to tow the 230 or so miles between home and Roslyn, Washington.

Towable, livable, then showable was the mission statement. Brakes, bearings, 12 volt electrical, plumbing,  logos,  rims...the list went on...

It was invigorating to have a deadline. I focused on the necessary tasks only. Before you knew, it was time to go.

Thursday June 16, ready to roll:


Here she is, being presented into vintage trailer society:




There were over 200 vintage trailers at the rally and a great time was had by all. She certainly enjoyed all the attention. It was very nice to see the previous owner and meet his parents. I think he enjoyed seeing The Mini-Me Stress. She so cute!
