Staying at Harrisburg R.V Park - on site #106 - pull in and easy pull out.  Gets a ***** ( 5-star)

 Jerry and Terrie - Holiday Ramblers.  We toured The Pennsylvania Capitol.  Today, the Capitol
with the addition of a modern East Wing in l987, covers 5.5 acres.    At the dedication ceremony it was said to be "the handsomest Capitol they have seen".    A magnificent building.

May 23, 2014 - Harrisburg, Pennsylvania  at the Harrisburg R.V. Campground on Highspire road.    Site 106.  Beautiful weather yesterday when we arrived, but rain all day today Thursday, May 24.  We already met with Brian and Jenn for a very nice visit, but Brian has to work tonight so had to cut our visit short.   Socializing for this weekend. 

Terri and Jerry just pulled in next to us.  Have not seen these Holiday Rambler guys for about two years, and the last time we were on the interstate going south and they were going north to Gillette, Wyoming to a Holiday Rambler rally.  Just passed each other going in opposite directions, and who would have thought we would be side by side here in Pennsylvania.

They came to visit us while we were in Dallas/Fort Worth and we went to the stockyards and Jerry bought an iron stand he wanted for his newly built bar-b-que, kitchen, casita.

Elkhart County 4-H Fairgrounds, -2014
We went on a brown bag bus tour.  We have gone on many bus trips before but this one was totally unusual.  When boarding we were each given a brown bag.   Little did we know at the time we were going to be given goodies from each of the stops we toured.    Yes, like a loaf (each) of bread from the bread store, the cheese factory, given a bag of Dutch Country Noodles, Yoder microwave popcorn, and I bought cheese, soap from the camel farm, given samples at the Amish school house, and bought meat at the meat market.  What a wonderful day.  I asked if everyone of our tour guide's trip were this much fun, she just laughed and said "I'm glad you enjoyed yourself".  Did we ever, it will be a day trip we are not likely to forget for a very long time.
