Gold Miner's RV

I stumbled across a surprising sight this morning in the parking lot of one of the local Flea Markets . . . a "Gold Miner's RV".

There it was on a trailer. A 1920's something Model T Ford truck with a truck camper built on the back end . . . followed by an outhouse! I guess this was before indoor plumbing, so you had to take your outhouse with you.
















Many of the necessary tools for RVing were hanging on the outside: wash tub, washboard, wringer, saw, shovels, ice tongs, and, of course, rifle with powder horn.

What won't they think of next . . . but I'm sure it would have made some gold miner very happy.
