Grayland State Park and Twin Harbors State Park

-
We have checked out all the campsites. A lot of them on the west side of the park are under water, as well as some of the roads around the circles. Most days the temps are in the high 40s. Our campsite is drying out, we could have a fire, but your footing would be mucky. I have already reserved sites for next fall here as far out as I can go. The weather has been mostly rainy, and we are starting a cold snap. We have traveled to Aberdeen (about 35 minutes) a couple of times for supplies. We found a Mexican restaurant open in Westport that is good (not as good as Casa). We also went to the Shoalwater Bay Casino in Tokeland. I donated my money while Roxanne came out a head. It's a small casino with only slots to play. Everyone is masked and gloved and they had a ton of people wiping the machines down. On a side note.. I am able to play my Xbox with my Jetpack. But the updates kill me... 21 gig download hurts. So, I upped my tethering data plan on my phone which gives me 30 gigs more. 

The main campground at Twin Harbors had the gate closed for emergency closure. The west side campground had a few sites (basic) open, but most sites were underwater.

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.

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.
