Out of the house

-

 We signed the papers to close the deal yesterday. We are still waiting to hear when it has been recorded so the deal is complete... We moved out yesterday, with the help of Trevor (grandson), and it took us to almost 6pm. With both of our vehicles full we checked into the Stratford Suites in Airway Heights. We were tired. 

The local news alerted us to expect high winds.. they were not kidding, 71 mph at the Spokane Airport. We did not get much rest last night with all the noise from the wind, and the dogs were very jumpy. This morning, after assessing the local news and the State road reports, we decided to stay another night and head over to the coast in the morning. Hopefully, the road closures and flooding will be minimal then. The winds are supposed to calm down around 4 pm tonight.

Fire Evacuation - July 16th

 So... we cleaned our restrooms Friday morning and took off to the Costco in Wenatchee. Had a very nice drive with a lunch break. As we approached the Twisp/Winthrop Area the smoke from the Cedar Creek fire look to be in the wrong place... The closer we got, I could tell it was up north towards our campground. We heard on the radio that the West Chewuch Rd was closed. Going up the East Chewuch Rd it looked to be behind us... Being the cautious one, I went ahead and got ready for a bug out. Just after disconnecting their propane line, the Deputy came by and said we need to move. Being we were on a dead end road we packed up and left. We spent about a hour at the 8 Mile Sno-Park before being escorted through the fire. It was pretty hairy with fire on each side of the RV. But, we made it out and went to the Pine Near Campground in Winthrop.

Back to Spokane - Northern Quest

We finally got out of Wilbur... The RV campground was not bad, but it takes a long drive to do anything. We had one of my daughters visit for a week, which meant numerous trips and a lot of gas. Anyway, we like this campground and it's closer to everything. I took the coach out to RnR so they can take pictures of the screen door and couch problem, then I added the no AC issue and a gasket problem on the main slide. I also checked in with Camping World and my parts for the tow vehicle are in and ready to go. Hopefully, someone cancels and I can get in sooner. So far my install date is the 13th. On the 31st, I purchase my new Off Season Pass for the State Parks... So, now we are in a wait mode, but we at least have a camping spot for the holidays... and maybe some casino time... The puppies are happy This keeps the bugs out, Fleetwood product

Car in tow

 After waiting weeks, we finally got the hitch put on the Jeep. It took Camping World two days for the install but it looks like they did an expert job. I had to cancel reservations until mid-October so now we are free to roam. I am a little out of my comfort zone, I like having reservations and knowing I don't have to look for a spot at night. Our first stop was Steamboat State Park. They just opened the new circle. We stayed in site #71, it was a back in site but there are pull through sites now. The new area is nice, new grass, paved sites, tent area... something very nice, the sites have two sewer hook-ups, one on the rear corner and one for mid-ship hook-ups.
