Sher and I had had enough. It has been since February 25th since we were in our RV. Roadtirement needed to hit the road again. I put some water in the fresh water tank, and flushed the antifreeze out of the lines. That way we would have water for our bathroom.
We went a town in south east Indiana named Batesville. This town has a rich German history, and is home to the Batesville Casket Company, one of the largest in the world. The Hill-Rom company, also headquartered in Batesville, is a manufacturer of high tech hospital beds and is also a Hillenbrand company.

Hillenbrand Mausoleum
We visited the Saint Louis Catholic Cemetery of the local church of the same name. This cemetery is in a beautiful setting with tree lined main roads. There is a section in the back of the cemetery that is the oldest portion and has the oldest graves. In addition this is the area where the founders of the Hillenbrand companies are interned in a striking mausoleum and a masonry fenced area.
It was great getting back on the road again, and from Batesville we headed to Oldenburg, another German influenced town in south east Indiana. We were safe, as we stayed far away from any people we saw. Stay tuned…
Two thumbs up, guys! Have fun, stay safe. 👍🏻👍🏻😎

Oh thank you! It was a treat, and we will be making some other “RV day trips”. This is the safest way for us to get out and do some sightseeing. Plus it lets us have our own safe clean bathroom.

We’ve thought about day trips, and then change our minds because of the restroom situation. It’s not so convenient to lug around a thirty-foot fifth wheel.

I sure understand the benefit we have in our small Class C. We would not try any day trip without it and our own clean and known virus free bathroom!
You guys stay safe. ONe of these days our paths will cross.
