Good traveling weather for the first leg of our journey to our home base in Boring, Oregon. Spent Sunday night in Yreka, California.
Monday we continued north to Coburg, Oregon where we spent the night in the service center parking lot at "Camp Monaco". As luck would have it we canceled our appointment for service as our home on wheels is running superbly.
While in the area we took Kuma to our favorite self serve dog wash for a shampoo and grooming.
Tuesday we enjoyed pretty spring blooms on our way to Boring.Baca lagi

Fishing continues to be good. We've smoked over 120 trout so far! My sister Marcia came for two nights and as usual cooked us two delicious meals. We held the first heat of our 3rd annual fishing derby, men against women. So far the guys are ahead by two. 😒
Our son Kyle came with his girlfriend Kelly for Father's Day weekend. Actually she's now his fiancee as they announced their engagement!!! 💟💍🥂🎉😊
Monday Chad and Leslie hosted a build your own pizza dinner attended by Jim & Kathy, us and our former neighbors Mike & Paula. Fun and delicious!Baca lagi

We had a wonderful month at Lake Simtustus relaxing, reading (9 books), fishing, eating, drinking, playing cards, and visiting. Kuma was in doggy heaven wandering around our campsite and fetching his floating toy from the lake. Randy caught a 17 1/2 inch rainbow trout and with my expert netting skills we managed to land it in the live well. We enjoyed two scrumptious smoked corned beefs braised in stout beer prepared by Randy for his early birthday celebration. We completed our fishing derby with the boys beating the girls by six fish. Thursday night we had a farewell campfire and sing along at Jim and Kathy's.Baca lagi

Hwy 26 was closed due to an accident so we took the scenic route back to our home base. Though it added an hour to our trip it was a beautiful drive over Mt Hood to Hood River then west along the Columbia. We came home to a yummy birthday dinner prepared by Randy's mom, Sharon.
Last Saturday we returned to our old neighborhood to attend Bubba's Bad Ass Barbecue for the first time in 5 years. Had a good time catching up with our former neighbors and eating Gary's delicious beef ribs. Thank you so much Gary and Barbara for your hospitality and friendship.
Sunday the kids brought over two pizzas from Giuseppe's, Randy's favorite, to celebrate his 63rd birthday. We had a great afternoon visiting, playing gonad-a-toss, aka ladder ball, and enjoying the desserts made by Sharon.
During the week we caught up on doctor appointments, picked raspberries, smoked five pastramis and visited family.
Today we picked 6 gallons of blueberries with friends and family. Many thanks to Tom and Allison for allowing us to harvest their fantastic berries every year.
After picking Jim (Allison's uncle) and Kathy came over for pie that I made from the last of last year's berries.Baca lagi

Sunday we went to our neighbors, Kathy and Rick's, for cocktails, conversation and Kathy's homemade deserts... yum!
They have a beautifully landscaped property including a pond with some monster koi.
Monday we met our pickleball pals, Jim and Angie, for lunch in Wilsonville. They spend half the year in Dalles, Oregon. Next time we see them will be this winter in SoCal.
Friday we headed north to Gig Harbor, Washington to visit Gary and Carrie and see their new home. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gig_Harbor,_Was… Carrie made a delicious pizza for lunch and Gary prepared cedar planked salmon for dinner. We were joined by their son Martin and his friend Kelly. We haven't seen Martin in six years and now he's an officer in the Marine Corp. Saturday morning we took a long walk around the harbor with a stop at Heritage Distilling for a tasting.
https://heritagedistilling.com/
Later that afternoon Gary treated us to a two hour boat tour of the harbor, under the Narrows Bridge, Point Defiance and Salmon Beach. We saw harbor seals and bald eagles and learned a lot about the area's history. http://destinyharbortours.com/
We ended our day with a scrumptious dinner at Morso. Sunday we enjoyed breakfast on the deck at Netshed No.9.
Many thanks Gary and Carrie for your hospitality, friendship and sharing your beautiful new home with us.Baca lagi

We've spent the last 10 days catching up with friends and family, dinner with the kids; lunch with Auntie Mary; attending the bridal shower of cousin Stanley's daughter Elizabeth; visit with cousin Sharon; dinner party at Carl and Val's; celebrated Kelsie's birthday at Bang Bang PDX followed by doughnuts at Annie's. http://www.bangbangpdx.com/
We also invested in a new Sea Eagle kayak as our old one was getting long in the tooth after 14 years. This one has a little trolling motor for fishing...I'll no longer have to be Randy's
"Debinrude" when he's fishing! We're heading up to Washington for the next six weeks and are looking forward to getting her on the water.

Thursday we headed to Elma, Washington for the first leg of a 6-7 week tour of Washington state. There's not much to do in Elma but it's a good base for exploring the region and a pleasant 10°-15° cooler than Boring.
Friday we visited Olympia's Farmer's Market
http://www.olympiafarmersmarket.com/and the adjoining Port Plaza before taking a self guided tour of the capitol building and grounds.
Sunday we went to Ocean Shores for lunch, took a short walk along the beach and jetty and stopped for a bike ride in Hoquiam on our way home.Baca lagi

We've been curious about the two nuclear cooling towers across hwy 12 so on Monday we checked them out. What was to be the Satsop Nuclear Power Plant is now the Satsop Business Park.https://www.satsop.com/
We've also seen thousands of diesel powered Volkswagens parked in lots at the business park and around Hoquiam. Apparently they're waiting to be fixed after the recall.
http://www.thedailyworld.com/news/port-pasha-be…
We continued to Westport for lunch and a long walk along Main Street and the marina. On the way home we tasted wine and strolled the gardens at Westport Winery. https://www.westportwinery.com/
Wednesday we drove into Olympic National Park/Forest and historic Lake Quinault Lodge where we hiked 5+ miles through the rain forest on the Quinault Loop Trail then stopped to admire the world's largest sitka spruce. http://rainforestgetaways.com/html/valley_of_ra…https://www.fs.usda.gov/recarea/olympic/recarea…

Thursday we cruised southeast to Paradise RV Campground. Though far from paradise it will suffice for the next two weeks. We strolled Old Town Chehalis had lunch and provisioned.
Friday we checked out Mayfield and Riffe lakes for places to launch the new kayak for her maiden voyage.
Sunday found us back in Chehalis to bike the Willapa Hills State Park Trail. The trail is beautiful and took us through farmland and forest with Newaukum and Chehalis River crossings. Blackberries along the trail were yummy! http://parks.state.wa.us/1023/Willapa-Hills-Trail
Following our ride we had a delicious lunch at Jeremy's Farm to Table Restaurant and Market.
http://www.jeremysfarmtotable.com/
Sunday we relaxed away the morning then took a ride to Mayfield Dam.
Monday we celebrated our 41st wedding anniversary by launching our new kayak into Lake Mayfield at Ike Kinswa State Park. We spent three fun hours paddling and motoring around the lake and up the Tilton River... a perfect day! Love the new kayak, it's faster and tracks better than our old one and the little trolling motor will be great for fishing or when we want a break from paddling.

We've been exploring the area around Silver Creek, the Chehalis Farmer's Market; Cowlitz Falls Dam; harvested blackberries for blackberry margaritas; Taidnapam Park; Kelly's Corner Cafe for breakfast.
Friday I returned to Portland to attend the Oregon Nikkei Endowment's Annual Banquet. My Uncle Kay was the recipient of the Heart of the Community Award...our family is very proud of his contributions to the Japanese American community. Thanks to my sister Marcia for speaking on behalf of the Endo family.
http://www.oregonnikkei.org/
Monday we went to the Cowlitz Salmon Hatchery to watch them sort the returning salmon. We arrived at 7:30, were told they'd be starting late and to return at 10:30....we returned only to be told they'd just finished. 😣
We checked out Mayfield Resort and Marina where we'd taken water-skiing lessons about 30 years ago and stopped at DeGoede Gardens on the way home.
Our stay at Paradise Campground has been more like purgatory. Their well can't keep up so the park has been without water for almost three days. Was supposed to be "fixed" by Monday at the latest but wasn't so we departed. Traveled east on hwy 12 for a 10 night stay at Maple Grove Resort in Randle, Washington situated on the banks of the Cowlitz River.

It was very smokey our first three days in Randle. Tuesday we attempted a long bike ride but only made seven miles before our eyes were burning and throats were scratchy. Wednesday we went to Mt Rainier National Park and toured the Ohanapecosh Visitors Center.https://www.nps.gov/mora/planyourvisit/ohanapec…
Didn't hike or tour further into the park due to smoke and poor visibility. Thursday was a bit better so we took Kuma swimming at Scanawa Lake before going to Bear Ridge Smokehouse and Meat Market in Morton for a T-bone and smoked beef sticks. We've been harvesting blackberries, plums and apples here at the park.
Today we headed back to Mt Rainier National Park and hiked the Silver Falls Loop/Grove of the Patriarchs trails...beautiful! I talked Randy into stopping at the White Pass Country Museum in Packwood on the way home. http://whitepasscountrymuseum.org/Baca lagi

We had a fantastic day visiting Paradise on Mt Rainier. Spent the first part of our day touring the Jackson Visitors Center and the Paradise Inn before hiking the Nisqually Vista Trail. We took a short break for lunch then hiked the Deadhorse Creek and the Moraine trails. We continued onto the non-maintained portion of Moraine trail and were rewarded with sweeping vistas and solitude. Our best day of hiking so far with great views of the mountain, wildflower meadows, marmots, chipmunks, butterflies and the sound of avalanches. https://www.nps.gov/mora/planyourvisit/paradise…

We rounded out our day tasting wine at Rob Williams and Maryhill wineries. We spent an hour listening to music and sharing a bottle of wine on Maryhill's patio while enjoying beautiful views of the Columbia River Gorge.

Friday we had a beautiful drive up to Seaside RV Resort. Sunday we stopped at two of our "must visit" places when we're in the area...the Bowpicker for delicious fish and chipshttp://www.bowpicker.com/ and the Astoria Sunday Market for produce and food cart goodies. We also did a walking tour and stopped at the Pilot House Distillery for a flight of vodkas and gin.
They have pickleball at our park so we've been spending our mornings on the courts, weather permitting. As always we've met new friends playing this awesome sport, most of whom know people that we've met in Desert Hot Springs... small world. We've also been riding our bikes on the Prom and through the neighborhoods of Seaside.
This afternoon we biked Astoria's Riverwalk

We departed Seaside for Coburg on the 9th. The weather was evenly divided between partly sunny and constant drizzle our last four days at the beach. Dry days were spent on the pickleball courts, wet days we enjoyed fish & chips and fish tacos at Grizzly Tuna and driving into Cannon Beach for eggs benedict and marionberry scones at Lazy Susan's. We had a fantastic stay and hope to see some of our new friends when we head south this winter.
Beautiful weather for our annual stay at "Camp Monaco" in Coburg where we went for some minor fixes and adjustments to the coach. Washed the salt water and sand from Kuma and gave him a light clipping. Spent three mornings at Meadow Park playing pickleball with a great bunch of people... all eight courts full every morning with players waiting to rotate in.
Tomorrow we head back to our home base in Boring for two and a half weeks before hitting the road again.Baca lagi
