'24/#23 Nice To Visit, But.....

 It is another cold, damp, day here in Oregon like we were told it would be. Getting the old bodies up and going in the morning is a challenge in these conditions but we are on the move today so, up and at 'em. There is still so much to see and we have enjoyed our adventure but neither of us can see us settling down in this part of the country. Not that we have decided to settle down or come off the road but the ideal location for our forever home has not presented itself.

Today we leave Oregon and head north into Washington. Waterfalls, giant airplanes, mountains, lighthouses,  and the Tillamook creamery. All things on the bucket list now checked off and another state marked off on our map. Yes we have a map to chronicle our travels. It is not one of those big maps you see on the side of RVs with the state stickers filling in as campers go down the road. We opted for something more subtle since our RV is home and not a vacation camper. It stays inside the house for us to enjoy and not so much to let others know about our travels.

Gotta mark off Oregon

There is a break in the weather so we will get things ready to hit the road, but first breakfast. We can't travel on an empty stomach. Oh, look the sun is out! We'd better get out there before the sun is gone ond summer is over! This is me signing off from our home in Troutdale Oregon because.....

Home is where we park it,

Frank and Mary

  1. I’ve been to Oregon and Washington but closer to the coast where it’s not the weather you’ve encountered. A lot of natural beauty is still there that hasn’t been cut down by loggers.
