Elkhart IN (Aug 4-5) Bowling Green & Cave City KY (Aug 6-8)

Being RVers, we had to go to Elkhart, IN to see where half the world's RVs are made.  We toured the Thor factory and the RV Hall of Fame.  What did I like best?  Seeing some of the antique RVs.  It's amazing how far the industry has come.  I know it does make us sound a little dorky, but what the hey...

RV Hall of Fame
The world's oldest travel trailer
1913 "Earl" Travel Trailer  & Model T Ford






















1929 Covered Wagon
1st production travel trailer in the US

This amazing machine was lived in from 1950 until February 2013.

1947 Westwood Coronado

After leaving Indiana we headed to Bowling Green to tour the Corvette Factory & Museum.  They don't let you take pictures in the factory.  If you are ever in Bowling Green I would recommend the tour.  The quality assurance and detail that goes into a Corvette is amazing.

How does a Corvette look on me?

Since we were so close to Mammoth Cave, we went back and took a different tour of this amazing cave, the world's longest cave at over 400 miles.
