Elkhart, Shipshewana and the new Bentley

Elkhart Indiana is pretty much the center of RV manufacturing in this country.  About 6 manufactures there build 80% of the campers on the road.  The area is dotted with specialty shops and surplus dealers.  You can buy most goods at 50% off.  We are looking to upgrade a few things, this is the place to do it!  We will return in September on our trip back East.

IMG_0962Meet the new Bentley.  We found her at the HUGE flea Market is Shipshewana Indiana.  This flea market is in the canter of Amish Country.  Hope she is as faithful a guard as her name sake,

The local had great food but very little regard to common fire laws.

We also stopped at National RV Refrigeration to buy a part  http://www.fixyourfridge.com/  Very accommodating these fellows specialize in rebuilding RV refrigerators.  They have very high skill level as the Amish only use propane refrigerators, they also manufacture internal parts which exceed OEM stuff.
