When is easier then where. I see the corner of a '90's vintage Chevy pickup or Suburban just to one side of the first trailer. Was there a vintage trailer rally lately in Vermont or New Hampshire?

No idea where, but I would guess that it is taken in the actual era of those trailers. An old photo enhanced to look modern.

Do I win the new 2005 28' CCD? Huh? Do I?

It was most probably taken on planet Earth some time in the last 50 years in a wooded area just off of a road paved with asphalt, it is odvious that the climate of the area supports grass.


I would say by your clues that is not in America.

Hey Vern ~
Looks like the first trailer is leaking red stuff. How about posting a larger picture? The answer is in the details.

The Vintage group in Japan? It is of recent vintage because of the black trash bag... and LACK of galvanized trash cans...

I was shocked when I first saw that picture..
