For the second time on this adventure, we got to see Morgan and Blake. We met up at the her roommate Alex’s wedding and then got to hang out for a few days before they returned to LA. We had a great time and were treated to some Vegan cooking from her boyfriend. The meal …
Not much to blog about thus far in Bothell at the Lake Pleasant RV Park. After arriving Monday, we have pretty much stuck to housekeeping chores and staying local. We washed down the lot to get rid of some of the goose remnants then gave the RV a good wash down before tackling the laundry. …
Well today’s leg was one not to be remembered yet here I go. The previous leg brought us back to Portland for the Frig repair so we spend most of the day at Camping World waiting for the install to complete. We got up about 6:30am so we would be first in line at the …
This leg is the additional leg back to Portland for our frig repair/replacement. We are boondocking in the Camping World parking lot awaiting their service department to open in the a.m. This site is a little noisy and crowded in the day but at night, it’s all ours. Tonight its left over pizza and salad …
Today we decided to head to Astoria since we will miss this portion of our trip when we head to Portland. We stopped at the Peter Iredale Shipwreck for what I thought would be a great photo op. It was however infested with tourist the way rats infest a garbage pile. I dont know why …

Today after breakfast at Wayfarers in Cannon Beach, we took in some sightseeing at the historic Haystack Rock. This is …
Today we set out to Cannon Beach, OR for our last stop on the 101. Due to the refrigerator issue, we will have to backtrack to Portland to get a new one installed on Sunday and then we take the 5 to Seattle. We are just a few miles at the end of what is …
Sunday we went to a rather unique wine tasting at Barnello Vineyards not to far from us. This is not a wine you would have heard of as it is a very small boutique vineyard. The owner/operator Ed only gives one tasting tour a day 3 or 4 times a week. The vineyard is actually …
It has been a couple of days of ups and downs in Portland this week so far. After taking it easy the first day, we set out on Thursday to try some of Oregon’s wine. We started out at Ponzi which I think is probably one of the largest and well know Oregon vineyards. Their …
After a mostly great holiday weekend in Newport, OR we started our trip inland to Tualatin, OR just South of Portland. We are in another one of those “cozy” get to know your neighbor spots but it should not be a big deal as we have several plans for the area. This area is know …
