July 10th, 11th , & 12th Wiggins Pass State Park Beach

For the remainder of the week our routine was to wake up have breakfast and head down to Wiggins Pass State Beach and spend about 3 hours relaxing on the beach by the gulf.
Walking around the park in the early evening we thought this was a great view of the park roads.

Wednesday the 10th was hair cut day at Great Clips in Estero. 

Found this little critter outside our RV in the morning slithering in the bushes.

View of the walk to the beach from the parking lot.

Ended the week on Friday playing miniature golf near Bonita Park

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. On the mini bus at Winnebago In front of the Winnebago visitor center The line u...

July 22nd & 23rd: Jayco Factory Tour, Middlebury, IN & Maumee Bay State Park, Ohio

Image
We visited the Jayco Class C factory tour on Monday.  It was a great tour.  The factory staff are 60% Amish from local farms.  The tour was very different from the other two tours we had. We were allowed to get right on the factory floor, very close to the units that were being assembled.  A Jayco product manager gave the tour.  We started with a comprehensive explanation of the chassis design as we literally stood right at a chassis.  We then followed the line and watched as walls and other equipment was added.  I now have a great understanding of the Jayco chassis design.  I am ready to build my own! At the Jayco visitor center we again got to tour new Jayco units in the back yard of the center.  After Jayco we headed east to Ohio and settled in a great state park for some r&r for two days at Maumee Bay on the western shore of Lake Erie. Our site at Ebys campground in Bristol IN Before going to the Jayco plant we had to sto...

July 19th: Richland Center, Wisconsin, then Taliesin Preservation in Spring Green, Wisconsin

Image
We left Winnebago in Forest City and headed east for Wisconsin and a campsite in Woodman.  It was a small campground between two roads and we were the only occupants.  But it was fine.  The next morning we headed for Richland Center to visit the homestead of our neighbors in Worcester. After a very nice visit there we went a short distance to Frank Lloyd Wright's Taliesin in Spring Green.  There we took the  Taliesin   house tour and got a good exposure to his unique architecture.  From Spring Green we headed a short distance east and camped south of Madison, Wi. at Thousand Trails in Milton. Crossing the Mississippi Prairie Du Chien and Elaine got a good picture of the river and a riverboat So when we arrived at Woodman the population swelled to 134... The most unusual campground to date was at Woodman between two roads but very nice. Visiting the Straights: Ron and Isabella at their homestead in Richland A nice ...
