Hi all, Lovely weather in the Pacific Northwest, got here with sunshine and comfortable temps. Of course today it is rain with sunbreaks, common PNW weather talk.

Day 24

Travel day, only about 150 miles. Beautiful views of Mt Hood, but I spent most of my time watching traffic. 

We had been getting used to wide open, low population areas and it will be a while till we get back to that. Got into our site, was put into the wrong one, and management worked it out so we won’t have to move. That is certainly appreciated. 

Took advantage of the onsite laundry facility and enjoyed some leftover scalloped potatoes from the other night. Had a great visit with old college friends that live nearby and we hadn’t seen for about 45 years. Had made the connection through Facebook, see it still has some redeeming qualities. Visited till nearly 11PM with possible plans to get together again, depending on any family commitments. Off to bed and looking forward to a big day with my Cousin Patsy.

Day 25 (Oct.9)

Nice morning, walk the Boyz, relax with coffee and breakfast. Hang around the campground getting a few things taken care of. After lunch we went to my Cousin’s place for and afternoon and evening of catching up, remembering family now gone, sipping some fine wine and a pizza. So good to share and remember loved ones. Made plans for tomorrow then back “home” in time for bed and some well deserved sleep.

Make your day great and please be kind.
