Alrighty... we loaded up Harvey (get it.. Ha-RV.. ha ha) and we headed west. We went camping at
Cape Lookout State Park in Tillamook. Here's a picture for everyone. You can see the other pics I took on my Flckr page (last link on the right). As always 8X10 prints are available for a mere $50.00. HA HA
Here is our very first, non driveway, camping spot. Everything went smooooth as ice... Well, after we couldn't get it started in the driveway at home and jumped right to the conclusion that we had bought a big square lemon. (I think I just flooded the engine). Then it was all downhill from there... Well, I did leave the lights on when we reached the State office in Tillamook, where mom had a board to do. So of course the battery died and we had to call a dude to come jump start us. (Hey.. apparently RVs built in 91 don't have the buzzy "you've left your lights on" noise) Then, piece of cake... Ok, ok... mom was gripped to her seat tighter than a fat man in a wet suit as we wheeled down the very narrow road to the campground. It's funny how curves become harder to manage when your vehicle not only bounces up and down, but sways from side to side. But a good time was had by all... yes even Clyde calmed down and got into a routine. Actually he slept the entire way home :-)
Yes.. that is a gnome on our table. David the gnome in fact! (Thanks for the gnome, Dave :-P) we haven't decided yet, what exciting things we'll make him carry in his little basket!
