Correction, what you have is a STOLEN TRAILER!

The fact that the owner is not standing in the doorway with a shotgun, and the sheriff is not parked next to it. DOES NOT mean you just found a free trailer.

Today I saw a perfect illustration of this. I took a road I seldom use and spotted an Airstream parked by a pond well off the road. I doubt I would have seen it if the leaves were on the trees.

I walked over and took a look, without touching anything. By the time I walked back to the road the owner was standing by my car. I explained what I was doing there and he relaxed and told me about the trailer.

He told me it has been parked there for 30 years. His family uses it in the summer as a guest house and when the children (now grandchildren) go swimming. His house is about 1000 feet away behind some trees.

So, just because you think a trailer is abandoned and unloved does not mean it has no owner. Whoever the owner is, it's not you.

By the way, the trailer I spotted today was a Land Yacht Safari, late 60s. It had square windows and square tail lights.

Ganaraska said it in a nutshell. It's not yours, so leave it alone! If I caught someone snooping around on my property the would be getting an interview with me, Smith and Wesson. Sorry, but I can't stand thieves, or people who tresspass, which to me is the preliminary step toward stealing.
