2019-04-06 RV Museum & Eby's Pines Campground

I put on a rally this weekend to visit the RV Hall of Fame & Museum in Elkhart, IN. We stayed at Eby's Pines campground in Bristol, IN. I had put on a rally here back in 2008 when we had our T@B teardrop camper and we toured the them T@B factory. This rally was a good turnout with 9 campers.

 
 
 



 Early Airstreams...
 The only tiny Airstream made. Wally Byam experimented with this tiny RV but decided not to pursue it, although I think today it would sell
 
3 pics of one of the first RV and with a slide out, too!









 This is the first RV Airstreamers Larry & Lou owned!!!





 





 I thought this unit looked pretty neat! 2 exterior shots of it and 3 interior. The interior doesn't look terribly comfortable but the exterior is cool.





These 3 pics are Mae West's RV!

 The site of this is now the largest Airstream dealer in the world:

Some random shots around the campground...



 Lucy, Brad & Dik. This was new Airstreamers Dik & Lucy's first rally! That's their vintage Airstream 190 class B motorhome!


Chris and his friend Chris brought a couple of their RC airplanes. These were kits they made. That dot in the sky in this photo is one of them. They were both quite talented in flying these! Makes sense since they've been doing it for 10+ years.
