After a long walk through the park at Ft. Stevens, we went to Seaside for a walk through town and lunch. Nice beach town but really cold!
On the way back, we toured Ft. Clatsop, the winter encampment for Lewis and Clark when they reached the mouth of the Columbia River.Baca selengkapnya

Kootenai Falls
29 Juli 2018, Amerika Serikat ⋅ ☀️ 24 °C
After two travel days, we arrived tonight in Libby, MT. We stopped in Richland, WA (Horned Rapids RV Resort) and Spokane, WA (North Spokane RV Resort) on the way. Today we hiked to Kootenai Falls and the Swinging Bridge before arriving here. The rushing river and the gorge it carved were beautiful. Zoey loved the hike but was afraid of the swinging bridge.Baca selengkapnya

Polebridge
31 Juli 2018, Amerika Serikat ⋅ ⛅ 25 °C
We drove 30 miles up the western side of Glacier Park. Much of our journey was over unpaved, dusty and bumpy roads with sparse tourist traffic. In addition to seeing beautiful sights, the reward for making the trek was buying fresh baked huckleberry bear claws from the bakery at Polebridge Mercantile. In addition to the store built in 1914 is a saloon next door and a BBQ place about 4 miles away. The BBQ was delicious - accompanied by Moose Drool on tap!Baca selengkapnya

PelancongGlacier is a remarkable place. The picture showing the burned trees is from the 2003 fire . The haze is from a new fire in the Kootenai Forest where we were 2 days ago. Temperatures still 90s here 100 + in Billings and humidity about 10 %.

Road to the Sun
1 Agustus 2018, Amerika Serikat ⋅ ☀️ 26 °C
Today we rode the iconic Red Bus built in 1936 to the continental divide at Logan Pass. Spectacular views of the glaciers and Logan Falls. The glaciers carved the mountains forming a narrow arete (The Garden Wall) on top -- the backbone of the divide.
Another hot day with temperatures still hot even at the top of the mountain. No need for those wool socks we bought for the trip!Baca selengkapnya

Whitefish and Lake McDonald
2 Agustus 2018, Amerika Serikat ⋅ ☀️ 26 °C
Today we drove to Whitefish, MT-- a cute Western town with lots of shops and restaurants. Then back to Glacier National Park to McDonald Lodge from which we took a boat trip on the lake. The classic boat was built in 1938. The perspective of the mountains from lake level was quite different from the view from the Road to the Sun.Baca selengkapnya

Stayed at Riverfront RV Park in Garrison, MT. Today we drove to Ennis, MT - Ennis RV Village. Again we are surrounded by mountains. Unfortunately we can see forest fires burning in the distance.Baca selengkapnya

PelancongWe were last here just after the 1988 fires so it is interesting to see the recovery of the landscape, especially the lodgepole pines. It is beautiful to witness the geothermal features. Pictures don't really do them justice.

Drove back to the park to explore one last time before leaving tomorrow. We went to the Norris Geyser Basin. It is the area of the hottest geysers and today was also our hottest day here! Steamboat Geyser is the largest active geyser but does not spout regularly. Today it gave only a very modest show.Baca selengkapnya

Buffalo Bill Scenic Highway
11 Agustus 2018, Amerika Serikat ⋅ ☀️ 33 °C
Today we left Yellowstone by driving through the park from the west gate to the east gate. We had several delays due to bison crossing the road. In order to reach the east gate, we had to cross the Sylvan Pass at 8520 ft. on a narrow road nestled between Avalanche Peak(10566 ft.) and Grizzly Peak(9948 ft.).
After leaving the park, we drove along the Buffalo Bill Cody Scenic Byway to Cody. We followed the river surrounded by rugged red rock cliffs.Baca selengkapnya

Medora, ND
14 Agustus 2018, Amerika Serikat ⋅ ☀️ 22 °C
After an overnight stay in Miles City, MT, we drove along the Yellowstone River into the Badlands to Medora, ND. We walked around the historic Western city after getting set up in Red Trails RV Camp. Tonight we feasted on Pitch Fork Fondue. The cooks put sixteen ribeye steaks on the tines of a pitch fork and then stick the fork in a vat of boiling oil! It was actually good with all the fixings. We ate outside on the top of a mountain. After dinner we walked over to the Burning Hills Amphitheater and saw the Medora Musical. It is the tallest outdoor amphitheater in the U.S. the show which has been going on for 60 years was wonderful.Baca selengkapnya

On Thursday we left Medora and traveled across the state of N.D. We stopped at the Painted Canyon on our way out of Medora. We spent the night in Casselton (Gov. RV Park) after driving past fields of alfalfa, wheat and miles of sunflowers.
Yesterday we drove across Minnesota to Hinckley where we stayed in a very nice park at the Grand Casino Resort.
Today we continued our journey to the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. The open plains turned into North Woods Forests.Baca selengkapnya

PelancongWe crossed the Mississippi river and are really in a very different world, birch and pine forest vs wide open fields. Fog and humidity this morning vs hot and dry. A constant we are reminded of however if the overhang of haze from the western and Canadian wildfires. It was very evident as we watched sunset over Sunday Lake on Saturday night.

We spent five nights in Nappanee, IN, the home of Newmar. We wanted to take a tour of the factory where our Dutch Star was manufactured. While staying there, we asked if they would fix a few minor warranty issues. They graciously worked us into their schedule while letting us stay in their RV Park. During our stay, we were able to explore the Heritage Trail and the Amish countryside. We loved seeing their farms and beautiful horses and homes.Baca selengkapnya

PelancongNewmar Factory tour was amazing. 3 men can move a 45 ft coach around by pushing it, suspended on air pads. Building 11 coaches a day. Assembly blew me away with virtually all components made in house. Quality is first priority. Happy that we got there and experienced their service too. Techs all came from the floor and had great expertise.
