On the Road . . . Again

Finally, after several weeks at home in Kansas, we fired up "The Bus" and got "On the Road Again". It was a great feeling . . . the surge of the engine, the hum of the tires, the scenery sliding by, Rush Limbaugh on the radio, and idiots on the road pulling in front of our 30,000 lb missile. Yes, it's a great feeling!

We were heading for Indiana with the plan of spending a week in the Elkhart/Goshen area to spend time with Carole's family and friends, then a week in the Fort Wayne area to visit Dean's family and friends and attend the annual Davis Family Reunion.

Last fall I joined the Moose Lodge primarily because many of the Lodges have campgrounds with RV hookups at a very reasonable price to members. We had not yet stayed at any of the Moose facilities but plan to stay at some on this trip. For our first night on the road, we stopped at the Moose Lodge in Iowa City, Iowa. They had four RV hookups and a very nice club house.

It was on a Sunday evening and the lodge was closed, but several members were there working. We arrived just when they were wrapping it up and they congregated on the patio for a drink. We wandered over and joined them and had a great evening meeting some new friends.

The next morning, we were back "On the Road Again", but we enjoyed the group so much that we may stop there again on our way back to Kansas.
