StormPOD: 2017 Fall Shipshewana, Indiana trip Day 1

We head out to http://shipshewanacampgroundnorth.com/. The campground works well for us because the in-laws get a cabin for 2 across the lane from the StormPOD at a reasonable cost. The area has a lot to do and see and is home to most of the RV Manufacturers.

We had not had rain at home for 10 days and right on schedule - the morning we leave we have it.

The weather added an hour of towing time to the trip. We went through several bands that slowed us to below 35 mph with some wind but the rig handled it well.

My coupon queen Wife scored us a tank of fuel for ten cents a gallon which meant it cost us less than $3.00 to make the trip from Southwest Ohio to Northern Indiana.

We do a lot of StormPOD activities because of her skills in this area. In this case, we use reward points.

We picked up some great firewood for the night at a local farm less than 3 miles from the campground. The campground sells firewood but the quality and quantity are far less than what we got for the same money.

The sites are closer together than we would like normally, we find that in tourist areas this is what you get.

Because we arrived on a Thursday and there was a large crafts festival in the area, we decided to hit the Blue Gate Resturant for dinner. This was a good decision as the area was very busy already.
