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!

"The brakes really work!"
Just a thank you -- shout out: the brakes really work!...On the trip north, we got into a situation that required me to perform an emergency stop. Boy, did those brakes stop. Literally l Read Moreocked up the wheels on the RV. Tires were actually smoking from skid-burned rubber. I'm pretty sure if I still had the electric drum brakes, I would have rear-ended someone. Thanks for a great system and an great installation.

"Unbelievable..."
Now that we’re back on the road, we’re able to experience the results of our upgrade. The only word I can think of to describe the difference is “unbelievable”. The stopping po Read Morewer in the new disc brakes is so much better that it takes the stress out of pulling the RV. When I apply the brakes now it’s almost as if I didn’t have the trailer behind me. I also feel much more confident with the upgraded suspension components.
I also can’t say enough about Barbara and John Alinger, our installers. They we’re so friendly and hard working. They had the upgrade done at the rally in about 4 hours then took a test ride with us when we were leaving to be sure everything was working well. They are great ambassadors for your company and products.

"The whole experience was exceptional"
Today John and Barbara came to our home in Virginia and installed the disk brake system. It was an exceptional installation. The equipment is very high quality. John and Barbara are a te Read Morerrific team. They showed up on time, went right to work, and displayed why their experience and expertise has made them the best. John and I took our truck and camper for a test/adjustment drive to ensure all was well and adjusted. The whole experience was exceptional.
Feel free to use me as a reference for Performance Braking and their ace installers.
