After 2 nights of wet wipe showers, we hoped to change our fortunes today, with Michael heading to the RV shop that we parked alongside overnight. The RV shop had not one, or two, but THREE water pump replacement options--success! Michael was able to install it in record time where we had parked, and it […]
When we woke up, Michael commented that the trees smelled kind of weird, as he exited the RV to give Sheila her breakfast. Lisette sniffed the air, and it didn't smell nice. It later dawned on us that there was a rug that had been disposed of in the trees in front of us, and […]
There were no signs of the deer we saw last night, but the big truck that also stayed overnight was still in his spot. We had a decent drive of about an hour or so to Spokane, the most populous city in eastern Washington with about 230,000 people. Spokane (pronounced Spo-KAN), is named after the […]
In the morning, we found that a car had parked directly facing us, making it more challenging (but not impossible) to exit, but we'd have to back out and drive around them. We never found out who the driver was, but it was weird as there were literally more than a dozen other spots this […]
We were lucky to have found an incredible spot by the water with no signs that said we couldn't stay there overnight! In the morning, it was cooler and foggier, which meant that there were no signs of Mount Rainier in the distance anymore, as it was enshrouded in cloud. But we were able to […]
The headline may seem confusing: Bremerton is west of Washington state, and San Francisco is two states down, in Northern California. But that's indeed what happened the next 3 days: after made an appointment with our dermatologist back in San Francisco and flew down, while Lisette and Sheila hung out with Meri, Sophie and Brewski […]
Waking up at Meri's place means that there is no RV blinds to lift next to the bed, for Lisette to take a photo of what's outside the window first thing in the morning. It does mean, however, that Lisette will have photos of the far wall of Meri's guest bedroom, because that's what she […]
Our Internet and cell service had been spotty overnight, and we realized it was because we'd parked the RV underneath a big tree! While yesterday had been sunny and hot, today the weather had taken a much colder turn, with cooler temperatures and grey, rain-filled clouds threatening us from above. Michael hadn't explored Poulsbo yet, […]
After seeing bear prints on the ground near where we slept, we woke up peacefully, with no bears or other big creatures in sight! After dusting ourselves off and having breakfast, we continued to explore the beauty of the Olympic Peninsula. And it is stunning, with the snow-capped mountains reflecting along the crystal clear water […]
Happy 100 days on the road to us! And how did we celebrate? By having an argument, over something really dumb that exploded because we were both feeling testy. We don't tend to fight much, but after being together every. single. day. it's something unsurprising that could happen?! A friend asked us recently if we […]
