Earlier in the week, we watched Adi compete in the USTA National Championships. After driving back to Chad & Faith's house to pick up our camper and get a good night's sleep, we headed for Hoby's Happy Hippie Hoedown at Rend Lake in southern Illinois.
A lot of Hoby's family were there and there were many organized (and disorganized) activities to keep everyone busy and laughing. We had a great time!
This was our last camping trip in our 2009 Aliner Classic Highwall. Next Saturday, it will go to a new home in Sterling Heights, MI. I hope Walter, the new owner, has as much adventure, fun, and good times as Marsha and I have had during our 63,000+ miles of travel with it.
We arrived at Clifty Falls State Park late Sunday afternoon and got set up and relaxed after the long drive of 309 miles. Monday, we rode with Joe & Loretta to explore the parks roads. When we got back to camp, Jake and Anne were there.
Monday afternoon, Joe and Loretta rode with us to Hanover College to take in the view of the Ohio River from "The Point." Then we went into Madison to pick up a few supplies.
Tuesday, we did a little hiking with Jake and Anne, then went into town to get fill up with gas and grab some beer.
Wednesday morning, we took our time breaking camp and heading for the combination May in Brown County Campout and Gathering of Aframes in Brown County State Park. We stopped in Knawbone, just east of Nashville, IN, at a little restaurant famous for their tenderloin sandwiches before going to the park and meeting up with old and new friends.
