Here we are in Nappanee, IN at the Newmar Headquarters. We decided to have the carpet replaced in the rig, an item we put on the list when we bought it. The Newmar wizards agreed to work us in, so we are here for the weekend. While we were here we decided to check out a local RV furniture place, and, well you can guess the rest. We’ve done a little updating! We should be out of here early next week. In the meantime we have free camping with hookups in Camp Newmar with the rest of the coaches in waiting!
We have had some internet challenges over the past few weeks which is why the Blog has been a bit dormant. I’m on my third Verizon 3G WiFi and now we’re in an area with no signal! This is being sent courtesy of the local coffee shop!
What a great week we had at the FMCA 6-State Rally in Hutchinson, KS. We decided at the last minute to take a booth in the Exhibit area and talk about SendOutCards. It turned out to be a great few days, meeting lots of people, setting up new retail accounts for RVers, and even setting up a new distributor in who lives in Hutchinson, Janice Patterson. Welcome to SendOutCards, Janice!
At the rally we heard that the Army Corps of Engineers maintains campsites that are lovely, well maintained and very inexpensive. We set off for a site on the Lake at Council Grove. Geoff too these pictures on our campsite. It's definitely a "must do" if you are in the area. We paid $9 with our Golden Pass, with full hookups!
This is what life looks like when it's working!

Every great once in a while we go into Corps of Engineers campgrounds which are cramped or otherwise less than stellar. In general, though, they're some of the best campgrounds out there. I love CoE campgrounds! And some state park campgrounds are former CoE campgrounds which have been taken over by the state. Always worth a look.
ReplyDeleteThey're a bit hard to find online, as there's no central listing other than Reserve America. But if you see a man-made lake in the area, check and see -- it may very well have a CoE campground attached.
