There are many RV manufacturing plants around here, and also lots of supporting businesses that provide services and parts to the RV factories. Everywhere you look, there are RV sales/service lots and parts places. If a person was in the market for a new RV, this would be the place.
This area is also the home of the Amish people. We have seen a variety of places that sells their crafts.
And we see them driving their little buggies everywhere.
We drove up the road to Nappanee, dodging the buggies. LOL We stopped at Amish Acres. This place is an 80 acre farm that really shows the lifestyle of the Amish folk. There are guided tours, buggy and wagon rides, barnyard animals, restaurants, craft demonstrations, and shops.
We then drove through Elkhart to the RV Hall of Fame. This is an incredible museum. The RVs have quite a history. And it is all here!
Elkhart Elk.....get it? They are all over here.
A RV manufacturing plant. We will see the real thing later this week.
So many old classic RVs. Really cool!
Yep, a photo op presented itself!
A state of the art toilet..... back in the day!
Can you believe it? A bathtub!
An original drivers seat. And a cool sink pump handle.
This is the area we walked through.
What a collection!
A nice day.
In the evenings, all the early rally attendees gather around Howard & Linda's RV and we all sit around the campfire. It is really fun getting to know new friends.
Fourty one of us are here two days early for the rally. There will be a big influx tomorrow.
We still need to hit the distilleries!
