Olzy took us out to breakfast at his favorite spot then it was off to Leavenworth, WA.  We drove to Kingston and took the ferry across the Puget Sound to Edmonds.  It was a beautiful day and we took a lot of pictures.  As the ferry was approaching Edmonds a pod of Orcas was feeding […]

Our friend Olzy has had a tough last 16 months.  Beginning in April of 2017 he has suffered from neuropathy.  Then in May of 2017 doctors found that he had closed or nearly closed arteries in his right leg and near his heart.  He had multiple surgeries to insert stints in to these arteries.  He […]

We got an early start because we wanted to walk a little bit of the River Trail before we had to leave our campsite.  We had coffee and began our walk about 9:00.  The River Trail will take you up to the glacier but that’s a 20 mile hike.  The first part of the trail […]

The drive to the Hoh River Rainforest in the Olympic National Park was nice and easy.  Even though we were on Hwy 101 in July there was very light traffic.  During most of the drive we were surrounded by forests. The Hoh River has a blue/grey color that makes it look really cold.  The river […]

We began the day taking the short drive to Cape Meares.  There is a lighthouse and day use state park at the end of the cape.  It was still overcast and sometimes foggy but we got some nice photos.  The house on top of what looks like a big rock was interesting. Cape Meares is […]

Looking over the map last night Diane suggested our next campground to be Cape Lookout State Park.  So off we went this morning. Driving up the coast we passed the 45th parallel where we were exactly half way between the equator and the North Pole.  Exciting.  When we got to Cape Lookout State Park a […]

This morning Slinky made a couple of new friends, Sea Biscuit and Secretariat. It was the first time she has encountered a horse, or any animal that big, and she was able to see them from the trailer window.  It was fun watching her. And now the 49th annual Oregon Country Fair! We really didn’t […]

We left Coldwater Cove Campground this morning.  And we want to thank Julie and Don Gray for suggesting that we should visit Clear Lake.  We drove west on Hwy 126 toward Eugene and for the most part we followed the McKenzie River all the way into Eugene where it joins the Willamette River.  We also […]
