I am now a widow who just purchased a NEW red and white "TAB" tear drop trailer built by Little Guy that I can pull with my Honda Odyssey. The trailer is not vintage but I would like to travel with other women. Am I eligible to do so? I'll be going from here to near Williams Lake BC Canada this summer and can drive anywhere in the States too. I have visited most of the foreign countries in which I'm interested and now it is time to "see the USA".

I looked for a trailer for quite awhile in Texas and surrounding states. My friend resides in Idaho and said they are for sale in that area quite frequently, especially early spring. I began looking on the KSL classified adds and found a number of campers for sale but they are sold really quickly and most of the sellers don't want to wait for a bank transfer, etc., especially if they have a buyer at the door with cash. I ended up making a week long trip to Salt Lake City, watched the adds and began checking out the ones I was interested in. The campers in really good condition are few and far between but can be found, move quickly though. I purchased a 1973 Prowler, towed it back to Texas with the help of my friend and have begun renovating it. After finding some water damage and investigating further I found a small ant farm, wood rot and a dead mouse. Now I am in the process of gutting the interior. Anway, would love to share tips, suggestions and experiences with others. Can't wait to get her on the road.

Pay $60 a year & you have access to so much info. Order the book if you want more info. Once you are a member you can find every Sister in your state, what your area is planning for get togethers, get on the chat line & those Sisters talk about trailers they see on Craigs list or different places, the Sister site has trailers for sale, they also warn you about scams (like never send $$ for a picture of a trailer you see) they even tell you what towns the scam people are in. Some Sisters have the time & money to travel across the US for get togethers, others maybe go to the lunches & meetups close to their home. Some stay in cabins, tents, or motels because they don't have a trailer. This group of women are all about enjoying life & laughter. It's a time when we don't worry about someone else or their needs. Women power is very rewarding. Hauling your trailer down the road, finding the perfect item at the 400 mile garage sales, catching a trout, cooking a wonderful meal over a campfire, or dressing funky for a glass of wine & dinner. All of this is done with plenty of laughter. You can view the pictures of many of these get togethers & I always wish I could have been there too. I belong to the Rocky Mt Sisters & they are doing something 12 months of the year. I knocked on over 80 doors to find my 2nd trailer. One of the doors I knocked on called me 3 months after I had been at their home. He had just lost his job & said I could buy the trailer. It was a 1966 Shasta that I got for $500 & a 12 pack of beer.

Big contingent, I believe, of women living on the road. Would be nice if they had a social voice, instead of being a statistic. Any thing in Australia.
