Last Day In Kelso!

 

Here we are, leaving Redmond, OR. We were on the road shortly after 9 am. A beautiful day to be driving.   (And relaxing in the passenger seat!)

We had such a beautiful drive up to Mt Hood. 

At some point at the top, we pulled into a rest area to use our facilities, and for Tully to find some grass. This wasn’t our first time up here, but let me tell you, it was a complete mess! It is so sad to be in such a beautiful area, and there was garbage and trash all over the place. Tully didn’t even have a decent place to pee! I have never seen this place as disgusting as it was! It seems as if this is the norm now a days!

Even going past Portland, with the traffic and such…so shameful. I normally post a photo of the state that we enter, but I couldn’t even do that. The Welcome To Washington sign had so much tagging on it, I couldn’t even read the sign. So much spray paint! Just a mess. It was so disappointing!

We arrived in Kelso Friday afternoon and got set up. Then yesterday we had friends stop by for lunch and before we knew it, it was past 3:30! A lot of fun though! We haven’t seen these friends since last August so we had a lot of catching up to do!

Taking Tully on her walky walk, we passed a motor home with a sign that said Ultra Maga!  Very nice people too!

I took a photo of this motor home because it is just beautiful! It looks like an oldie, and the name of it is called Wanderlodge. Now I wouldn’t mind traveling in something this cool! The chrome on this puppy shined! Whoever owns this keeps it in very good condition!

We leave in the morning, heading to Bothell. We will be staying at Lake Pleasant RV Park, where we have stayed in the past. We will be there 2 weeks and hopefully we will get to see a couple of kids and lots of grandkids!
