Not a lot of Airstreams, but some really neat pictures.

That was a great site. I remember that the local university had two of the Palace fold out units we called them triple wides and at least a dozen of the Travelo Defense trailers left over from WWII. They remained on until the construction of a Student Union in about '63'. Dad bought the entire lot and moved them to 5 acres on Sand Creek in Wyo. The intent was to set up a camp ground along with a U catch trout farm. I had the great joy of spending two summers there. Dad sold the property and the camp ground was never completed. Last time I drove by I see a neighbor had made a camp ground right next to the property Dad had.
