June 25th & 26th First Landing State Park, Virginia Beach

We continued south from Cape Henlopen, De on route 13 towards the Chesapeake Bay Bridge tunnel. This is one of Elaine's favorite bridge/tunnels,  not!  the ride was uneventful and we stopped at a Acme supermarket for some supplies and I found a liquor store next door with my favorite beer: Leinenkugel Berry Weiss!  The next two days went uneventful with a nice beach day on the 26th including another beach nap!  Elaine even convinced me to go totally into the water. Did I mention that immediately next door(100ft) is the Joint Expeditionary Base Little Creek-Fort Story

We visited with ken and Marion Hanscom on Sunday June 30th and Monday July 1st.  On Monday we visited the West Virginia Wildlife center.  After that we visited their favorite glass blower, Ron Hinkle in the back country Buckhannon.

July 18th: Winnebago Factory Tour, Forest City, Iowa

Image
From Center Point Iowa we continued north to Forest City Iowa and the Winnebago plant tours.  Winnebago must have been named after the Winnebago River which we crossed on the way there.  The Winnebago visitor center was very impressive.  They had a lot of exhibits, many new rv's to tour and many staff to answer any questions.  The Winnebago tour was also very impressive and very organized.  They drove us in mini buses to each plant after outfitting us in orange vests, safety glasses that actually fit, and great ear plugs.  The tour gave us a great understanding of how a class C RV is assembled from the chassis up.  I can't wait to try and build one myself!  At the end of the tour we looked through all the new rv's they had parked outside the visitor center.  From Forest City we set off east for Wisconsin landing in Woodman Lake Campground site #1.
