2011- August 19 Aliner Owners Club Central Great Lakes Region Rally in Shipshewana, IN

Now Marsha has my head cold, or whatever it is, so we're both hacking, sniffing and coughing. We drove up to Sturgis, MI (about 10 miles) in search of a decent Wi-Fi connection at the local Mickey D's. That's how I was able to post the pictures in the previous entry. After that, we went back to Shipshewana and wandered through one of the local hardware stores. You'd be surprised at the different stuff you see in a hardware store in an Amish community!

Then we came back to the campground and checked out the on-site custard stand. Good stuff! After that, it was the usual wandering around, visiting old friends and meeting new ones. There are about 40 Aframes attending the rally, so we have a pretty good crowd.

Before dinner, we had a local merchant tell us all about Honda generators. The subsequent potluck dinner was good, as usual, and many stories were told around the campfire while John was trying to get a fire stack going. Marsha and showered and turned in early in hopes of shaking our colds.

More later.
