Here’s an interesting little blog I found via Seattlepi.com. Simply called Weird RVs it is precisely that. An ongoing log of the pictures and descriptions of unusual RVs and travel trailers the owner has come across himself or, more often, were sent in to him from readers.

Now, weird may be a little harsh of a description, though it obviously works on bringing in the curious reader like myself. A more apt word might be unusual. There is the expected collection of retrofitted or built from scratch RV weirdness but there are also some very interesting models from the past – RVs and trailers that served a purpose at the time and have since been outpaced or improved beyond recognition.

Anyway you approach it, it makes for an interesting few moments in checking out the wide variety of, well, ok, weird RVs from the past and present. Check it out.

RV blogger Keith Bennett over at Examiner.com reminds us that it’s the time of year when birds are looking for places to nest. And as everyone knows travel trailers, fifth wheels, and campers are a favorite spot for birds to try to build their homes. So as you’re looking at you RV parked beside the house and thinking of your travel plans for the season remember that someone else may have other plans for your RV. Look for and cover up tempting nest sites. Bennett points out that a fifth wheels king pin area is a particular favorite for some reason.
