Since we have been coming to this area in Indiana, we have only stayed in a campground once because we are usually here having warranty work done at the Travel Supreme factory. Today, after the service centre completed the latest work on our coach we moved to the Pla-Mor Campground near Bremen. Actually the Pla-Mor is between Nappanee and Bremen and only 14 miles from Wakarusa, all places relatively close to each other.
This morning we were up bright and early so that we could go to the flea market in Shipshewana which opens at 7:00 AM. I am drawn there by the fruit, vegetable and baked good vendors, most of them Amish, but occasionally we will poke around the various stalls to see what else may intrigue us. On Wednesdays there is a live auction in the huge auction barn where up to eleven auctioneers will be peddling the antique wares of dozens of vendors. It is quite entertaining to watch as the excitement builds throughout the barn and folks walk away with their purchases, all convinced they got a great deal. Rosanne and I left there to explore some other shops and make a visit to a local cheese factory before making our way back to the Travel Supreme factory. There, we waited with Rick, who arrived earlier with Graham (Gayle stayed at their motorhome for a restful day) while the finishing touches were being completed on the motorhome. After a late leisurely dinner together at the picnic table it was nice to be able to walk over to our "home" parked next door. Our sites are huge, comfortable and quiet, just what we need to finish our week in Indiana.
