Who would have ever thought that after Dad and few others got the idea to convert a military semi-bus into a 5th wheel mobile home with all the conveniences of home that one would need on the road. On the back of the truck Dad built a box to haul rigging and props…….Circus people invent out of need of necessity. Now you see these 5th Wheels passing us on the freeways and the funny part is most are not show people…I wonder where they got the idea.
