We’re baaaaack! It’s great to be in the Lower 48 again. Canada is fine and I don’t mind adding ‘eh’ to the end of every sentence, but the gas prices are terrible.
For the next 3 weeks we’ll be visiting friends in the San Juan Islands, Olympia, Shelton and Seattle. In late August we’ll head down to OR and visit friends and relatives there for another 3-4 weeks before heading back to AZ.
We’re at the KOA campground in Lynden and it’s a beautiful facility, family oriented, with lots of rug rats. Roughly 4/5 of the folks here are from BC. It’s a 3-day holiday for them (BC Day!).
Mostly, we avoid KOAs like the plague. They’re the antithesis of everything we enjoy about RVing which is lots of space, quiet, private, cheap, campfires allowed. Sometimes though, they’re the only game in town so here we are.
Yellowhead: the rest of the story. Pierre Bostonais was a blonde Frenchman who traded with the Iroquois and later helped survey the Yellowhead Highway route in the early 1800s.
Now tell me: where else would one get all these invaluable lessons in history – not to mention geography, biology, ornithology and grammar? Priceless!
Mucho gracias, Senor -- for all the "lessons"! Welcome back to the good ole USA. My oh my, the time has flown by. We're still enjoying the posts. No doubt will be fun to connect with friends/relatives in the PNW. Stay safe. Al&Gin
