At home in Elkhart, IN…

Today was our first full day in our new home…at least for the next 3 weeks or so.

After being on the road pretty much constantly since April 1st, we are looking forward to some downtime.  We want to get some things fixed/upgraded around the coach and just take it easy.

There are a number of RV Surplus / Salvage places around here that we want to check out, too.

But today was an errand/shopping day.

First we decided to have lunch at Das Dutchman Essenhaus, a place about 15 miles away that serves Amish-style cooking. You have your choice of ordering from the menu, or being served family style. The food was very good, and a lot of it.

After lunch we drove over to Mishawaka, about 10 miles west of here.  Mishawaka is a suburb of South Bend, which is a little further to the west.

Here we hit Home Depot, Walmart, Bed, Bath & Beyond, and a Halloween store.

After that, it was home from the night.

More tomorrow…
