Trailers

There was a documentary on T.V. about a religious family, somewhere in America. They believe and practice that a man can have several wives, but this practice is outlawed in the State where they lived. Therefore they live miles out in the middle of nowhere (Utah I think) on an arid plain. The husband set up home there with one trailer and his first wife and their kids. As he married other women and had several more kids their community grew to the proportions of a tiny citadel of trailers in the desert. It was a citadel of trailers of biblical proportions so to speak.
