Memories of a Trailer
I recently acquired a refurbished 1979 Coleman tent trailer from my parents. This isn’t just any trailer - I grew up with it.
My fondest memories of this trailer?
Chicken Pox
My brother and I were covered from head to toe in chicken pox… in July… and my parents decided to take us camping. I remember laying in the bed on the right, groaning in agony with my brother by side. Miserable.
Canada
We took the trailer on a road trip to Banff, Canada when I was around age 12. The most memorable parts of that trip:
- Horse back riding in Montana - my brother fell off the back of the horse he and my dad rode.
- Walking up to mountain goats in Banff.
- A moose walking down the main street of Banff.
This wasn’t miserable… in fact, it was quite fun.
