Back to Spokane - Northern Quest

Image
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

Goose Creek RV, Wilbur, WA - August

 We are kind of stuck here until September. We were caught without any reservations due to the fires up north. We were planning on being Campground Hosts until October but all is changed. Not to say this campground is bad, but just the opposite... the owners are very helpful can accommodating. I see them continually upgrading sites by painting, landscaping, etc... The spots for a longer stay are pretty close, but on the "B" side a better. There is a laundry and showers if needed. You are in the middle of the town and a block away from the main drag. Very close to breakfast restaurant and the famous Billy Burger..... We have been heading into Spokane numerous times (1 hour drive) for supplies, mail, visit our storage locker. I even had a chance to a few PGR (Patriot Guard Riders) missions. I even brought my motorcycle out of storage for some rides. We started looking at options for a toad to pull behind us. There is not a lot of options to fit our needs, such as 4x4, high clea

Cape Disappointment - July 25th

Image
 Traveled from Wilbur, WA to Cape Disappointment on Sunday. I took the I-90 route and was sorry... to much traffic around Seattle-Tacoma. But, we made it... 100 degrees when we left, 60 degrees on arrival, nice change. We stayed in Y-91. Cindy and Tom used the yurt and let us park in front. We had power and water only. That left our site 92 open for 2 tents for Ehryann and Austin. Tom and I got to golf at Surfside Golf Course. The greens were outstanding. You play the course twice for 18 holes. Eric showed up Thursday night. Friday was lunch at the Roo, and some miniature golf. The week went by very fast. We need to plan next year for all my family to attend. Saturday, back to Wilbur for a couple of days to see if we get to go back to the Methow Valley.

Fires continued - July 21st

 The Pine Near Campground was busy. I was glad they had a spot. We ended spending a few days (6) to see if anything would break with the fires. My awing almost touch the camper next to me on one side, the left side out was almost in the camp spot on his side. (Not my kind of camping). We spent the days watching planes and helicopters scoop water out of Pearrygin Lake. We were offered a Campground Host up the Twisp River Road at Popular. But, later it was given to another host. I started looking for a spot to camp until the family get together but nothing was open around Spokane. We finally got a site in Wilbur at the Goose Creek RV Campground. The site is just of Hwy 2, a little traffic noise but not bad. We will stay here until Sunday then head to the coast.
