Enchanted Trails was originally a trading post that opened back in the late 1940s.
The pawrents wanted to check out this RV park as a possible place to visit with RC. It is only 20 minutes away and perfect if we just needed to "get away" after a rough week. Although we didn't stay at this park, Mama did walk around with Daddy and they found a fun little group of old time trailers and cars!
The pawrents said it felt like they were transported back in time!
Most of these trailers are available to stay in for a fun retro vacation!
Mama had fun playing with the pictures she took. She thought it would be fun to have them travel back on time to the age of the older cars and travel trailers!
Which do you like more...the sepia type color....
or the silvery black and white???
and just in case you were wondering what the vintage trailer park looks like in color....
You will probably be seeing a lot of Route 66(aka the Mother Road) around here this travel season. You see, next year is the 100th Anniversary of when the Mother Road opened in 1926! This year we will be visiting Tucumcari, NM again(next weekend) and in May we will be traveling to Grants, NM again! You can bet Mama will be taking lots of pictures, so fun blog posts will follow!
You never know, this might be the year we get to go farther North on Route 66!
A girl can dream, right???
We are joining Sandee at Comedy Plus for the

ReplyDeleteWhat a fun place that looks, Rosy... tell mama although I rather like sepia tones, for these beauties, I feel the blue/grey actually suits them better. Although, I do like the sepia on the bigger metalic 'cottage' style rig. That one is quite like the family caravan I spent my first five years in... and then after the pawrents got sticks and bricks, they bought into the touring vans like the one mama shows at the end... oh yeah, you're gonna have fun! Hugs and wags, YAM-aunty xxx
that is such a super idea... you can be a kidlet again or you can remember the ole times or you can just enjoy the spirit there... we wish this old friends could talk...
ReplyDeleteI would love to stay in this park in one of these old RV. I am glad you did all the different time travel filters and I think I like the silver but only a teeny tiny bit better than the sepia. these photos are like the photos of my childhood as are the RV we would see back then. the park is amazing
ReplyDeleteThe photos in sepia really look pawsome! What a fun place to visit and a great idea to do the vintage look there. Hope you enjoy your travels. We have shorter trips planned for now but are hoping for a more exciting long trip to new places later in the year. Happy camping!
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun place to visit. We hope those old time campers have some modern conveniences in them like air conditioning. Those tin cans could get quite warm in the New Mexico heat.
ReplyDeleteMy mom loves antique everything and she thinks it would be fun to stay in the RV park with all of the antique trailers and cars!
ReplyDeleteOMNiece Rosy that transported Aunty C back too. I will age myself and say I remember riding in several of those styles. Now that I look at those cars with the loooooooooooooong hood I wonder how they ever saw the road. My Daddy had a car (don't remember the kind) but it had push button controls on the dash board...almost like a telephone pad.
ReplyDeleteNow we have push button starts again
Love how Mama made them look
Hugs AC
Hubby and I enjoy a bit of Route 66 back in the mid 90s. So much to do and see. I love this park. I would be snooping around it for hours. Love it. Such fun.
ReplyDeleteThank you for joining the Happy Tuesday Blog Hop.
Have a fabulous Happy Tuesday. Scritches to the pups and my very best to their wonderful peeps. ♥
Those were fun photos and those really are some classic cars and trailers!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great place! I like the silver tone best, but what I'd really like is to go stay there someday.
ReplyDeleteThe black and white photos are stunning
