Our travels have come to an end; we’re home now. This is the end of the blog. Until next time.

Finally our repairs were done and we made our way to Minnesota. Almost home! We had supper with the relatives in Albert Lea and will be spending the night in a Walmart. Home tomorrow!!!

Winnebago Industries has a campground for its customers who are waiting for service.  We stayed with about 10 other rigs.  The technicians came and pulled all of us into service bays first thing in the morning.  While we were waiting … Continue reading →

We have a service appointment in the morning at the Winnebago/Itasca manufacturing plant in Forest City, Iowa.  This is where our rig was made.  It’s only a few miles off the road home so we thought we would take advantage … Continue reading →

More seminars today.  Bernie went to Generator Maintenance, LED lighting,  and Solar Panels, while I attended a very interesting History of RVing, and we both attended “So You Want to Full-Time” and another RVing to Alaska seminar. I just couldn’t get … Continue reading →

Last night the entertainment was Bill Cosby. Funny as ever. Today was more seminars and some free stuff and deep discounts and then free hospitality with free food and pictures. Elvis was there! Right now we’re seated, waiting for Martina … Continue reading →

Bowzer’s Rock N’ Roll Party was the entertainment last night.  Good show.  This was not the real Bowzer from the oldies group Sha Na Na, but was Jon Bauman’s portrayal of Bowzer.  He did a great job and the show was … Continue reading →
