New Accessory - Aug. 2010


We were in Elkhart, IN, which is where we picked up the Roadtrek three years ago. We happened to be at the same campground where they were having a big Rally for the Class A motorhomes. We were able to go to the vendor display and bought a flag holder and three flags - USA, Hawaiian and Air Force. We usually display it on the front but here at Lake Monroe we parked nose first so we displayed it on the back. Pretty cool, huh?

Labor Day - 2010 - Indiana

We haven't posted in ages because we had major computer problems. I'll post the most current and work my way backwards until I get caught up.

We are spending Labor Day weekend at Monroe Lake outside of Bloomington, Indiana.
We arrive here Thursday night with no reservations. They place has over 200 sites but they were completely full until the day after Labor Day. First they said we could stay one night without any electricity at a tent site. But after visiting and touring the Roadtrek they found a site with electricity that we could spend the night. We got set up and shortly they showed up to tell us we could stay as long as we liked. They contacted the person who has reserved our site and she had also reserved two other sites so she gave this one up to us. All the sites are in the forest, so lots of shade.
There is a trail that you can walk down to the lake through the forest. We did that the first day and drove down the second. The hill coming up was a killer. This lake has the nicest swimming area that we have ever seen at a lake.
On the way back we saw our first sign of Fall - the leaves are starting to turn. We are heading South.
