Moving on from Belfair, WA

Tomorrow we move on from our home of the last week, Belfair State Park, where we hung out with our friends Ken & Sandy, and Garry & Jenny. For those of you who are not familiar with Belfair, it's a small state park on the Hood canal. There's a day use area for swimmers, & clammers and 3 camping loops. We were in the "beach loop", which is the most open and easiest to get a 40' moho into. Today is packing up day, and I'm happy to report that it's not raining. The forcast was for yesterday and today to have steady rain. Yesterday it sprinkled for an hour around 6pm. and today has been rain free & partly-sunny so far. Another observation is that the pacific northwest looks like the U.P. of Michigan with more hills and a lot more people.

Our destination tomorrow is a park in Cheney, Washington, about 10 miles west of Spokane and about 325 miles from Belfair. We were originally going to go 374 miles to a park in Cour D'alene, Idaho, but I found an RPI park on the interstate we'll be traveling. We want to spend 2 nights in this area, so an RPI park at $8/night sounds a lot better than $35/night. Our eventual destination is Rapid City, South Dakota to register our car and get drivers licenses, then to Denver by the end of the month where Rich's company, Maverick Ranch, is hosting a meeting for all the reps from all over the country. We're taking about 2 weeks to do this, so stay tuned for details as they become available.
