Our drive was to take us only on toll free roads and it wasn't too long when we questioned that strategy. We went through every town, stopped at every light and lost valuable time. By the time we decided to switch to toll roads (the interstates) we were in Indiana and the roads were great without taking the toll road. We arrived in LaGrange at 2:30 PM and were surprised to see all the Amish people that were in this area. Actually, we shouldn't have been surprised since this is the RV manufacturing center of the country and we knew that many of the RV's were manufactured using Amish help. I was able to get a couple shots of them on the road, even though I was driving while shooting these pictures:
Our first clue to all the horse and carriage activity was the amount of horse apples along the roadside. They were everywhere. We got set up:
(ours is the 2nd from the right) and had conversations with our neighbors about why they were here, where they were going and everything else about their travels that RV'ers talk about. It was a Doubletree hang out, so to speak. We scheduled ourselves for the tour at the factory that was to start this morning at 8:30, so this entry will be cut short.
The day today was a doozy! I finally got this entry posted, but check back tomorrow - it was an exciting, and scary, day...
