"It's like those big motorhomes all had babies!"
It's hard to describe or get good photos of 200 little fiberglass trailers (13'-21') popping up all over the Dome Rock camping area. Twice a day, I wander around (getting my steps in!) to greet old friends and meet some new folks. Friends from Calgary (Jim and Lisa, with Jasper), Grand Jan, Lynne and David, from the Southeast, Jon Vermilye from New York - we come from everywhere to form this community for a week or so.
Folks help each other with trailer problems, share tips and ideas (thanks Jill and Randy for the sunshade tips), the ladderball tournament, the yummy desert potluck (why have dinner - just skip straight to the good stuff!), great campfires, music jams, and on and on. All under clear, sunny skies!

| So much desert!! |

| Firewood galore! |
Everyone gives trailer tours - you can see most manufacturers represented and most models offered and usually in a variety of years. Oliver trailers had about a dozen trailers here - one was a model brought just to show folks!
I gave a trailer tour to Pam, who is considering an Escape 19 (just that little bit bigger than her Casita). She had made a bunch of really cute potholder gifts to give away. She even had orange!!
Lots of good dog-walks and short hikes
I always love to walk in the desert. Old abandoned mines are covered for safety; the discarded piles of rock are a good place to look for especially bright or unusually colored rock.
