TOUR WINNEBAGO FACTORY

Left cow country yesterday and drove to Forest City, Iowa.  It was after 5pm when we arrived at the Winnebago visitor's center and we found a place to park for the night without having to unhitch the tow vehicle.

After a quiet night's sleep and breakfast in the morning, we walked over to the visitor's center to take the 9am tour.  It started with a quick and informative movie followed by a bus tour of all the different warehouses and factories.  Very impressive 2-hour tour.




The town of Forest City is corn and soybean country with Winnebago and it's subsidiaries employing about half of the 4,000 people living there.

After the tour, we packed up and drove about 5-hours to a Walmart in Pine City, Minnesota.

Thanks for stopping in to say hi.
