We arrived bright and early Sunday morning in Goshen. We'll be staying here at the Elkhart County 4-H Fairground for the Fall Escapees RV Rally. The Escapees RV Club is a club for full-timing or full-timing wannabes. Check out this link for information about this fun and friendly organization. http//www.escapees.com/index2.asp
There are over 1000 RVs parked on the fairgrounds. It is mind-boggling to see so many rigs in one place. We've already met some great RVers. Two couples we'd met at the LOW we attended in Kentucky are here. And several of the instructors we met are here too.
Our next door neighbor is from Titusville Florida, down the beach from where we occasionally stay in New Smyrna Beach. Gregg and Judy are from Michigan and are full-timing in a Nu-Wa HitchHiker Champagne 5th wheel. It is a beautiful rig. Very high-end costing over $80,000. Way more than we plan to spend on our next rig.
Gary and Suzanne ride around on the coolest bikes. Suzanne's is a recumbent bike. Gary's is a recumbent trike. I think I'd like one of them. Both of them look like fun to ride. I found this web site that has bikes like them.

Yesterday afternoon we heard a high school steelband. They were awesome. They won first place in a National championship. Check out their web site and sample their music. Click on the Merchandise tab, then you can click on each title to hear it. They are an amazing group of young musicans.

Today we've been to a couple of classes, then went to the RV show that is here. We saw some beautiful BIG 5th wheel rigs. Carriage Cameo and Carri-Lite. None of them were the size we're interested in. (31-33'). It looks like the manufacturers/dealers brought their best to show off. We' re a little disappointed that Heartland didn't come as scheduled since they make the BigHorn 5th wheel which is one we've been considering. Hopefully we'll be able to go over to their manufacturing plant next week for a visit.
Another Class Gathering with ALL Fulltime Classes!!
