Gary, these are the motives that never become boring.  The multi-layered paints prove the longevity of these trailers.

Yes, they are like stratum found in the Earth. A very interesting observation.

Travel Town has become more colorful in the 30 years since my last visit.  Nicely done.

I've always enjoyed Travel Town, as a kid and now as a big kid.

Lovely abstractions. I've always enjoyed seeing the history of paint jobs when things get sanded down like this. I wasn't aware of Travel Town, I'll have to go check it out some time.

It's free with some picnic tables to rest, chimp and/or have a bite.

I somehow missed this thread and only found it now. These abstracts are really good. I probably would not have dared to go for such colors but now I'll do.

wonderful collection of creative abstracts. Mongo also loves # 1 for the lighting, colour and context. It would be great to have an eye that can see and record any of the essence in such subject matter. Very nice work indeed.
