Elkhart IN is the RV capital of the world. Within 20 miles there are over a dozen major manufactures so the hall of fame is not such a huge surprise. Our visit was a whim which exceeded any preconceived notion. The museum is a very nice collection with examples from the early 1900s to the mid 1980s. Both of us have early memories of late 50s travel trailers like the one pictured below.
I know I have seen pictures of my mother's family camping in the late 1920s in RVs like the earlier examples in the museum.
When we first started out on the road, we kept kind of a diary of where we went and what we saw. We thought it might be fun to take our diary to the next level. We hope our family and friends will enjoy it and it will help them to keep track of where the heck we are!
We are retired and lived in our motorhome from 2005-2012. Dave is retired from the Federal Government and I am just retired.
Dave rides his Harley and I knit,spin and dye fiber. We have two great kids, one on either side of the country. Our daughter is on the West Coast, and our son and his wife are on the east coast. We try to divide our time between the two but probably fail.
