Made It To Portland!!

 

Since we had a later check in, in Tualatin, OR, we took our time leaving La Pine.  We didn't get on the road until 9:15 am.  We liked this park, except for one thing....

The ground was too soft!  We use buckets for the front legs, and one of the buckets was slowly sinking.  The ground was dirt, with a lot of sand, plus lots of mole or gopher hills.  Lesson learned!  Pick up some wider thingybobs for the front leveling legs!

Oregon is beautiful country over here on the east side!  Lots of great views of the mountains!

It wasn't too long before we had to travel over some of these mountains.

One of the towns over here on the east side that we love is Sisters.  Such an old cowboy town.

In the beginning, traffic was light.  The best thing?  No rain!  And of course, no snows!

I might have talked too soon!  We saw lots of snow, but the roads were clear.  Traffic even got a little heavy, and just to be nice, we pulled over twice to let traffic go through.  Even though we were going the speed limit, but there are some people that like to go over.  No problem.

God bless America!

We are staying at Roamers Rest RV Park in Tualatin, OR.  Beautiful park! Since we've been here it has rained about 13 inches.  Everything is green!  And the traffic!  Where did all these people come from?  We had to do a bit of shopping at Safeway, and do these people even know how to drive?  If I had a bathtub, I would be yelling Calgon take me away!!

Being out on the roads as much as we have, we hardly have worried about traffic.  But now that we are in huge populated areas, we see what we haven't missed!  We are here until Friday, then we travel up to Chehalis, WA.  We get to see some old friends, (long time friends and really old people!), and take care of doctor appointments.  We are running today over to Camping World because the park that we are currently at want travelers to take pride in their homes and encourage us to wash our homes!  We have no trailer soap, so we are off to go shopping.  We will be able to get all the dried bugs off our home and get the windows cleaned!  This is the first park that wants us to wash our home!  I think other parks down south would encourage us too except they try to save their water and don't want to waste it by washing trailers.  But then again, isn't the south always in a drought?  Oh well.  We get a clean home once again!
