Description

Every issue of the magazine seems to take on a personality of its own. We start with a list of stories, photos, rallies, and trailers, but somewhere along the way, little themes begin to appear. Sometimes they are planned. Most of the time, they are not. This issue is a good example of that.

Somehow, we ended up with two trailers named Ginger and three Boles Aeros in the same issue. We did not set out to do that, but that is part of the fun. At some point, you begin to wonder if we are choosing the trailers, or if the trailers are choosing us. Either way, it made us smile, and we think it adds a little extra charm to these pages.
That is one of the things we enjoy most about putting this magazine together. Every trailer has a story, and no two are exactly alike. This issue is once again filled with the mix of trailers, rallies, and people that keep the vintage trailer hobby so interesting. From restored classics to well-loved campers, from rallies to the restoration and roadside adventures, each story is a reminder that this hobby exists because people are willing to share what they love.

We are also very happy to announce that we are the new wagon masters for the iconic May Pismo rally in Pismo Beach, California. This rally has been a favorite for many years, and we are honored to help carry it forward. Pismo has always had a special place in the vintage trailer world, and we look forward to seeing familiar faces, welcoming new campers, and keeping the spirit of the event alive.

As always, thank you for reading, sharing your stories, sending your photos, and being part of this community. Whether your trailer is polished, painted, restored, original, or still waiting its turn, there is always room for another story. And who knows? Your trailer just might be the one that chooses us next.
