Catching up

 I hadn't realized that it had been so long since my last post.  So now I'll attempt to catch up.

 After the excitement of the 4th of July we left the Tillamook area and drove Southeast to Elma, WA. for 4 nights.  

 








 We spent an afternoon with our dear friend Teri Smith who used to live in VT.  It was wonderful to see her.  We went out to dinner and had a great time catching up.


 








                                       We left Elma for Ellensburg on the Yakima River.

 We stayed at a Passport America park that was a bit funky, but fun.  They had horses, sheep, a goat, and a lot of big bulls. The bulls were rodeo bulls. 

 


















After our stay in Ellensburg we drove up I-90 to Soap Lake.  Yes, Soap.  It is known as Healing waters.  It has a bunch of minerals in it and people  have been going to the lake and using the mud as long as there have been people in the area.

The bad thing about our stay was the wind.  It blew all day and all night every day and every night except the last day of our stay.  On that day we went to the Dry Falls.

 Last night we stayed in Spokane, WA.  At the fairgrounds.  We were the only ones there.  It wasn't much to write about.

  We stopped for lunch at the Grand Coulee Dam.  There was a nice grassy park and we enjoyed the stop.

  Today we drove through Idaho and into Montana.  It was a beautiful drive through the mountains.  We are spending the next 3 nights in St. Regis, MT at the Nugget RV Resort.

 So now, I'm done catching up.
