The Inside of a Trailer at the Palm Springs Modernism Show and Sale 2012

The Palm Springs Modernism Show and Sale 2013 is coming up. Above you'll find a peek at one of last year's attractions, a trailer. More specifically, the inside of a trailer. Also, a few years ago, I wrote an article in the Modernism Show guide.

On a side note, while trailers are considered, shall I say, tornado bait by some people. I had read that in a novel awhile ago and found it to be humorous, but a bit judgmental. The term, however, is valid, but any structure, trailer or otherwise, is tornado bait. You don't have to look further than Joplin, MO to know that.

Getting back on topic, I'm proud to be in a city where trailers are glamorous. Many Palm Springs trailer homes are winter domiciles for the snowbirds and are located right under Mt. St. Jacinto's shadow.  In front of some of these homes, you'll find retro cars in colors you've never seen before, manicured gardens filled with ornaments and more bedrooms and bathrooms than some homes.

To see some of these homes, drive to Sunny Dunes after making a left on Ramon and Sunrise and turn right. One block down on the right the homes shimmer in the desert sun.

Another must-see attraction in mid-century modern Palm Springs.
