New Trailer Tour!

I know, you're thinking...Jana! You guys *just* bought a new van. What are you doing buying a new trailer? I completely agree. It's crazy, but it's all part of the plan to downsize our touring show in terms of weight. For this to work, several things needed to happen in a row, and we're not done yet!
No, we didn't buy the tractor, but it is tempting!
We'll spend the rest of the summer with the van towing the trailer to make sure this set-up is optimal for us. Once we know it's good, we'll sell our beloved Chevy 3500 diesel dually truck and buy...a car! I don't even know how to drive a car, they're so tiny and you can park them anywhere and go through drive throughs. What will that even be like?

Now that's a fine looking truck!
Ultimately, all these changes will lower the price we pay to work. It's expensive to keep Circus Stella on the road, and we're looking to increase profit by lowering long term cost. Hopefully this new set up (van + tow behind trailer as opposed to giant diesel truck and giant 5th wheel toy hauler) will last us a good ten years and allow us to recoup the purchase price. I'll keep you posted.

If you're interested in how we track our finances, we use Personal Capital. It's free, let's us see all our accounts in once place, and helps keep tax information organized all year. Use my link to sign up and we'll each get $20, it's free to use and I wouldn't recommend it if I didn't love it myself, so give it a try!

But you're not here to talk financials (which I could seriously do ALL DAY folks), you're here for the TRAILER TOUR! I put together a video over on youtube, linked below. If you like it, please consider giving us a thumbs up and subscribing to our channel. We've been working hard to improve our youtube lately, and we hope it shows.



Voila! Fancy, isn't it? Especially all the weird extra lights and the ridiculous solid state counter top. Ultimately, it's the perfect trailer for us and we're hoping to have lots of fun camping trips in it over the years.

With our salesman Tyler, who I convinced to arm wrestle me. See video above!

Thanks for reading and for watching our video. Please feel free to leave a comment if you have any suggestions for future blogs and videos. I want to make what you want to see! Remember, if you're going to buy something on Amazon and you'd like to support the circus at no cost to you, just use one of our links to get there and we'll get a small kickback from anything you buy. It's a win win! Or if you'd like a free trial of AmazonFreshKindle Unlimited, or even Amazon Prime, please remember to use our links! Thank you friends.

Have a great day everyone and enjoy the rest of summer. Stay cool! :)

Bonus: I did a video of our old trailer tour back in the day as well. It was my first ever video with a go pro. If you're into that sort of thing, here it is:
