Please, no more riding in the truck today! |
Another short day today. We got settled in time for Roger and Miss Maggie to have a nap before we went out for pizza. Maggie had another day of hyper-ventilating and didn't settle down until about 30 miles from our destination. She wore herself out and decided to hide from the world once we arrived!
No weird sightings today. We had beautiful wild orchids and wild blackberry bushes along I-5 but once we turned off onto US101 at Olympia it became a forest of cedar and pines as we slowly wound our way north along the western edge of the Hood Canal. It is another one of those two lane roads that is a beautiful drive - if you aren't the one doing the driving! The Olympic Mountains were shrouded in clouds and we could see fog in the bay but we had dappled sunlight as we drove along the Canal.
We drove 166 miles today from Kelso, WA to Sequim, WA. We have reservations tomorrow on the Port Townsend Ferry to cross over to Whidbey Island where we will stay at the Cliffside RV Park on the Naval Air Station near Oak Harbor. We will be there for two weeks overlooking the Strait of Juan De Fuca and doing some sightseeing in the San Juan Islands.
Well, Rog is at it again - playing Mr Fixit. For some unknown reason the lights on the outside of the trailer decided to turn themselves on and are stubbornly refusing to go off. After a few hours of troubleshooting, the problem was "resolved" by removing the bulbs from the fixtures. DUH!! All last winter we had "0" problems with this coach and now, it's becoming a daily occurrence While the problems are pretty much minor, they are frustrating. It may be the "internal" warranty clock on this coach is sensing expiration next month.

so good to hear from you two. I am enjoying your blog! Any chance you will be in Michigan this trip? I will be there in October for a few days, a preplanning trip for Craig's wedding next April, yes finally Craig is getting married.
