As The Small Trailer Enthusiast approaches the completion of four months of existence, the idea came to mind to write about how this blog came to be, and with that the inspiration for it. It wasn t until the last three years or so that I ve become interested in small travel trailers. My wife I had wanted a teardrop trailer for many years, but it had always last minute cheap airline tickets been one of the many maybe some day dreams we all have. When we did finally pull the trigger and purchase a T@B in 2009, it seemed to instantly fuel an interest in all travel trailers small. I m not alone in this interest, as many of the small trailer brotherhood I know also will take interest in a diminutive towable they might see at a campground.
So what gave me the idea to start The Small Trailer Enthusiast? You need go no further than a 2400 mile ribbon of asphalt and concrete known as Route 66. My interest in this fabled highway goes back some three decades. 66 has been a big part of my adult life. Before I was married, it wasn t anything for me to hit the road on a whim and take a 3 or 4 day weekend out west on the Mother Road for either a steak dinner 1,000 miles away in Amarillo, Texas, or 4 hours away for frozen custard in St. Louis, Missouri. It was because of 66 that I met my bride of nine years. We both had an interest in 66 and eventually last minute cheap airline tickets met through a mutual friend last minute cheap airline tickets who also had the same love of Route 66. Would it be a surprise to anyone that we had a Route 66 themed wedding last minute cheap airline tickets or that we took our honeymoon on Route 66 ? How many of you didn t see that coming?
With this interest in 66, I have always stayed on top of news from my favorite two-lane. Most of my news came from various publications and online message forums , but in 2005 Route 66 News changed the face of how information from 66 got to the general public. Started by Route 66 enthusiast Ron Warnick last minute cheap airline tickets , Route 66 News has received nearly 3,000,000 visits over the past six years. Not only is it an excellent source of up to the minute news from the road, but is also an equally good database of Route 66 business information ranging from restauarants, motels, events, and yes, even campgrounds along its 2400 mile shoulders.
This leads up to this summer when the idea came to me to come up with a news blog relating to small travel trailers, loosely last minute cheap airline tickets modeled after Route 66 News. Being a member of a few online forums dedicated last minute cheap airline tickets to smaller trailers of various last minute cheap airline tickets makes, I thought putting together a news blog for this niche just might work. So far, I ve been pleased with the gradual growth since its inception on September 3. Daily hits to the site have gone from 9 per day in September to 77 per day as of December 15. I fully expect that number to increase as content on the site increases.
The things I look for to put on the site will focus on new models last minute cheap airline tickets as well as news relating to existing models. I also hope to continue with the spotlight features, where I discuss a particular company and what they have to offer. As I mentioned in the About section, you won t see anything about pop-up trailers here. Nothing personal against the owners of these trailers, but I m just not a fan of pop-ups. The closest thing to a pop-up I might ever discuss would be an A-frame, hard-sided pop-up such as an A-Liner or a Chalet. I figured I d need a cut-off size-wise. I picked 20 simply because it was a nice round number, but that s not to say I might not mention something last minute cheap airline tickets a little larger if it fits what I m writing about.
Hopefully as time rolls on, I ll develop some relationships with manufacturers so I can bring some content to you on a more frequent basis. I m making some progress in that area with some smaller, up coming manufacturers who ve given me a lot of good info that have generated a lot of hits on the site. And if you re a manufacturer or representative of a manufacturer who d like me to talk about your company or trailer, feel free to contact me at roadmaven@yahoo.com. As always, thanks for reading
