RV/MH Hall of Fame, Elkhart IN














































On the second day we made our first sightseeing stop at the RV/MH Hall of Fame in Elkhart, Indiana. My father-in-law had given me a magazine clipping about this museum a few years ago when we were just getting started on our trailer and it's been someplace we've wanted to stop by ever since. If you're interested in old trailers this is the place. It's a lot like going to a vintage trailer rally, but it's a little odd that there are no owners with each trailer to tell all their stories. It was amazing to see some really old stuff built by Covered Wagon, Schult, and Spartan in person. There was one Shasta in the collection, a 1954 model that was pretty similar inside to our '63 considering that it's 9 years older. I've posted some more photos from the museum in a set from our trip on Flickr that I'll keep adding to as I get to it. If you are ever traveling through Elkhart the museum is a an easy stop, it's right off the interstate and worth making some time for!
