Trailer Ideas For A Rainy Day
September 20th, 2017

Trailer camping is a great way to explore the world and show the kids what life is like on the road and away from civilization. However, sometimes things don't work out quite how you expected and the weather gets in the way of all the outdoor activities you've planned for you and your family. That's okay, don't panic! As long as you've planned ahead, you should have plenty of things to do inside your trailer white the weather clears up.
Board games
Sure, board games aren't for everyone, but there are so many out there nowadays that you'd be remiss not to find at least one that you like. Try searching online for stores that just sell board games and tabletop games and you're sure to find something that you like. Risk and Monopoly are two great games that will take hours and hours, and you'll have a blast playing them with your friends or family!
Use rain cover
If your trailer has a pull-out rain cover or if you brought a tent or tarp you can relax out in the rain and enjoy the sights and smells. This would be my preferred way to spend a rainy day because sometimes being outside when it's rainy can be relaxing and you'll have all your trailer's appliances nearby for convenience. Just make sure to layer up if it's cold out!
Read a book
There's no better time to read a book than on a rainy day. Whether you're laying in bed or sitting outside under rain cover, books are a great way to pass the time on the road.
Get some work done
If you live out of a trailer or you just have the ability to work remotely, rainy days can be the best time to get a lot of work done! It's tough trying to focus on work when you see how sunny and beautiful it is out, so you should take advantage of these opportunities. Besides, some people find that working while it's rainy is a lot less stressful, allowing you to be more productive.
If none of these options suit you, there's always the option to put on a rain poncho and play in the rain. There's no shame in that!

"PERFORMANCE TRAILER is your trusted source"
If you own an RV with drum brakes and factory suspension system, and you’ve read the reviews and are contemplating a change to upgraded suspension and disc brakes - your decision proce Read Moress should end here. #1 Call PERFORMANCE TRAILER and discuss options. #2 Find the money for this no-brainer upgrade. #3 LetI’mp.m. PERFORMANCE TRAILER guide you through the installation location and process. This is all coming from a couple who have traveled the country, including Canada and Alaska, with a 38’ Fifth Wheel dual axle trailer. As of this writing, I would NEVER purchase another trailer without at minimum an upgrade to Disc Brakes and Roadmaster Suspension. The extra stopping power and smoother ride simple saves your physical trailer, and could (God Forbid) potentially save your life. It’s that important. And PERFORMANCE TRAILER is your trusted source in accomplishing this end. Thanks for reading.

"Truly one of a kind amazing people!!!!"
Hi Kelly,
I just wanted to take a minute and thank you for all your help getting this done but most importantly I wanted to really thank you for setting us up with John & Barbara for th Read Moree install.
Professional, polite, fun, knowledgeable and just simply decent people doesn’t even to begin to describe them. Your company is truly blessed to have them!! What an amazing team they are.
They both explained every step of the way what was going on, explained every part being used and it’s purpose. We left for a couple hours during the install and our campground neighbor was totally impressed that even while we were not there they kept working and never missed a beat!!!
After the install was complete John & Barbara hung around for a while going over everything and making sure I had no questions. I’ll be honest.. I’m not the most mechanical person and John made sure I understood everything and the proper way to maintain it as well as making sure I had all their contact information if I ever needed anything or had a problem or questions!!
Truly one of a kind amazing people!
