After the lengthy convention visit we had to catch up on work Friday and took it easy Saturday. We went next door to the RV dealer and checked on some models we liked on the internet. Well, seeing them live is no substitute for the internet.
Took it slow on Sunday, knowing we had to leave the KOA by 11:00h and did not want to arrive in Decatur, Indiana too early as check in at the hotel was 14:00h and the drive only 2 hours.
The first 50 miles or so out of Indianapolis, Indiana are a challenge to any vehicle “rough road ahead” was the understatement sign of the day.
So we dropped Charlie off around 13:30h in the sprawling REV RV parking lot.
To our surprise the facilities (washer, dryer, toilets, vending, tornado shelter) were only accessible with a key card and we would not get one until next morning.
Surprise number 2 was that there was 50AMP service and pads to use when leveling, but no water. So – if you come in a day ahead for the 06:00h service and the tanks should be empty – where do you shower and use the restroom?
Parked, got our personal items out, checked into the hotel and took a drive around Decatur, Indiana. Settled first by New England Yankees in 1835 and with a population of around 10,000 (per Wikipedia) a rather smallish town.
Went to bed early, knowing that we wanted to be there on time tomorrow morning at 06:00h.
