Wretched drive out of Seattle due to Friday traffic, LOTS of construction and truck drivers going 30 in a 70 and not putting on their flashers. Rather frustrating to say the least.

We arrived in time to make dinner and it was SUPER WINDY!!! 💨 💨 💨 Gordie's tent is blowing away along with Patrick! A unique feature of this campsite is that we were able to see it from the road above as we drove to the entrance ⛺️.Baca lagi

Stopped at the nicest travel plaza for gas this morning. They had everything you could need from cowboy hats to snacks to food to wine tasting as well as very clean bathrooms. Excellent place to stop.

The 14 miles preceding were unexpectedly educational. They listed the crop growing in each field behind the fences on the side of the highway. We saw beans, carrots, potatoes, alfalfa, field corn, sweet corn and green manure. It also informed us that Grant County, WA is the nation's highest producing county of potatoes. 🥔Baca lagi

Thursday we traveled northeast over White Pass to O'Sullivan Sportsman Resort in Othello, Washington...the nicest campground so far with green grass, spacious sites, swimming pool and pickleball!https://campnative.com/campgrounds/usa/wa/othel… The wildfire smoke has followed us. 🙁
Saturday morning we provisioned at the most excellent Moses Lake Farmers Market followed by pizza and a flight of beer at Guido's Brick oven Pizza.
Sunday we met some nice folks at the pickleball courts and got about four hours of play in. Finally... no smoke! 😄
Monday morning we rode our bikes over to Potholes State Park. http://parks.state.wa.us/568/Potholes
Spent the afternoon driving to Ginkgo Petrified Forest State Park and surrounding region. Also saw some big horn sheep grazing in someone's yard. http://parks.state.wa.us/288/Ginkgo-Petrified-F…
Today we visited Ephrata and Soap Lake. The mud and minerals in the lake are supposed to have healing properties. I do know my feet were really soft after mucking around in the water and mud. https://www.thestranger.com/seattle/the-freaky-…
This is beautiful country with acres of corn, fruit trees and fields of sunflowers.Baca lagi

Day 6 Chelan to Coulee City
14 Jun 2021, Amerika Syarikat ⋅ ☁️ 57 °F
53.75 miles, 3357 ft. The route out of Chelan was a nice downhill to the river and then an eight+ mile climb with some steep 8–12% grades. It was overcast and a bit chilly and at times the ride was through the clouds. Fortunately most of the rest of the day was more flat or downhill. The landscape continues to change. Today there was little traffic and even fewer towns and houses.
Our home tonight is at the Ala-Cozy Motel in Coulee City. Coulee City sits on the Banks Lake near the Dry Falls Dam that is part of the Columbia River Basin which provides irrigation to the surrounding farmlands. The once flowing Dry Falls was a huge water fall that was over 3.5 miles wide and 400 feet high, much larger than Niagara Falls.Baca lagi

Happy Anniversary Rhonda!
27 Jun 2019, Amerika Syarikat ⋅ ⛅ 57 °F
36 years ago I (Russ) married my beautiful wife, Rhonda. We have enjoyed 35 years of martial bliss. I figure that there was a cummulative year here and there that wasn't too blissful.

It is unfortunate that we aren't together on our anniversary. Rhonda is supportive of this epic adventure.

Miss you Rhonda!Baca lagi

Pengembara After 36 years we do not use the term "cute". A better reference would be "healthy".

Columbia River
28 September 2023, Amerika Syarikat ⋅ ⛅ 64 °F
Back on I-90. Facts: one of the longest interstates, Seattle to Boston, and apparently has the least traffic...we goggle alot on our drives.

Southwest of Spokane, after a fairly large burn area, we got to one of the most boring parts of our drive...no billboards, no trees, no cattle, just fields of scrub, or occasionally grain. I almost fell asleep! However the road quality was excellent!

Lunch at Moses Lake while filling up with gas. Prices have steadily increased as we headed west. Prices are just under $5 now. In Michigan we were looking at prices just under $4.

We took a break at a large scenic overlook for the Columbia River mid-afternoon. I tend to think of the Columbia River as an east-west River, however in this location it has turned north and really runs north south. Great overlook, cloudy windy day.

We camped at Wanapum Campground which is a Washington State Park right on the Columbia River. It was a beautiful spot and we enjoyed great views of the Columbia right down near the shore. Very, very windy and loud! 14 mph with gusts up to 20!Baca lagi

Pengembara Big open spaces, without billboards could be quite pretty, especially once you are past the burn scars! That’s hard to see.

Pengembara $2.989/liter here for the cheapest gas! So almost $11.30/gal for regular gas! There are about 3.8 liters to the gallon. When I first saw the gas station prices I thought, pretty cheap! Then I asked is this price per liter? The answer, "yes" 😳 It may be less expensive in a less touristy spot, Im going to have to look now!

Heading West
9 September 2021, Amerika Syarikat ⋅ ⛅ 75 °F
Oh man, what a wonderful lunch we had yesterday! Calamari, salmon, halibut...yum! After that, we made our way to Spokane. I was stationed at Fairchild Air Force Base 2007-2009, but didn't get to do much in downtown, so we stayed right by the river. I forgot how much I like Spokane. We walked through the park, checked out the carousel, talked to a couple of security guards for the Death Cab For Cutie concert, and popped into the Irish Pub. Then we wrapped up the evening with a filet mignon smothered in grilled onions and shiitake mushrooms and asparagus sprinkled with goat cheese. Oh. My. God. It was one of the best meals I've ever had 😋😋😋.

We aren't very good at leaving early, and today was no different. But we finally got out of the hotel and are heading west on 2 towards the Coulee Dam.

So long [for now], and thanks for all the fish! ✌️
