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!

"Simply Amazing"
My wife and I would like to thank you for your time and effort to get your product installed on our 5th wheel RV. The difference the disc brakes make is simply amazing. In addition to Read Moreexpressing my appreciation to Performance Trailer Braking, I need to thank you for linking me up with Dennis Hageman, Sonchaser RV, to do the installation. He made the process simple and our time at his place was wonderful. To be able to park the rig and stay there while he worked his “magic” is not typical.

"Thank you all"
Just wanted to give a shout out to the installation team that works through your company, Josh and Heather Shrader. They installed my brake kit today on my 5th wheel trailer. They were Read Moreboth very professional, they both took time to explain what they were doing and invited me to ask any questions that I might have. Their work was done in a timely manner and when they were done their work area was left clean and all old parts were placed in one spot with all cardboard for easy disposal. It was a real pleasure to have met them both. And by the way, the new disc brakes are awesome! Thank you all.

"Dennis Knows His Stuff!"
Dennis knows his stuff! We connected through Performance Trailer Braking when I inquired about upgrading the brakes and suspension on our Momentum Toy Hauler. Dennis and his assistant, A Read Moresher, arrived right on time and got right to work. We had them swap out the factory suspension for the Road Master Comfort Ride slipper spring set up with shocks, Kodiak disc brakes, and Dexter 8k axles.
Super nice guys, very professional and efficient. They did all the above in about 8 hours. Dennis travels the west helping customers upgrade their suspension and braking systems. He also attends RV rallies to do prearranged upgrades.
I highly recommend Dennis of SonChaser RV for any suspension & brake upgrades you may be considering.
