It was a rainy day for a drive. We arrived at Newmar Corp., maker of our RV, in Nappanee, IN at four o'clock, just as the parts' department was closing. Newmar furnishes a place to park (with electricity and water) on their premises.
Thursday
We--Glen, actually,--shopped in the parts' department, and found most of what was on the list.
We then drove 15 miles to the town of Elkhart IN where "Bradd and Hall INC" is located. Bradd and Hall are RV renovators. It is the beginning of the motorhome make-over. We ordered--carpet, window shades, sofa, recliner, and driver's and passenger seats.
The motorhome is ten years old. Wear and tear is obvious. Glen has also already replaced all of the cabinet handles (50-plus), and hinges that were glaringly gold in color.
We will discuss schedule in the morning. Employees measured for everything this afternoon.
Neither Glen nor I are good, confident or experienced in choosing colors or designs. We had made some tentative choices. Then, yes!, Brad, the owner who has many years of experience in choosing colors and designs came to our rescue. He "helped" us; ok, he gave us choices and we picked our favorites.
We both feel better with what has been chosen. I must say that it is an entirely different color family than what we first thought/chose.
While we were in Nappanee we learned that next week end is the Apple Festival. Below are some indications of the festival theme.
I will discuss being in the middle of Amish country in another blog!
