So we arrived in a mid-sized coastal California city around 2am Friday. We
stayed in a spacious cozy place that seemed very lived in and familiar. We
were greeted by 2 cats, and chickens and a rooster and several fish. I
think we are going to stay here for a long while.

We are heading back to Californialand and are now stopped in Gold Coast
Oregon. We stayed the night at Bullard Beach State Park. This is close to a
beach but not quite at the beach. There is a 3/4 mile hike through dunes to
the beach. When we got there, we discovered that [...]

So we are all repaired, and I think we can now no longer call our honeymoon
a “low budget” honeymoon, thanks to Vera's leaking head (or head gasket). We
got our motor home back on Friday around noon. We decided to leave the
Seattle area as soon as possible. We can't thank Dan, Patty [...]

Sequim (pronounced “squim”) to check out the largest spit in the world. It's
called [...]

stuck for the weekend in Yakima or wherever we ended up where there is
nothing to do.
It took them about 2.5 hours [...]

So we are in a town called Woodinville, which is pretty much Seattle. We
spent the night the night before last in our cozy rest stop, next to giant
tanker trucks, and other big semi trucks. The trucks here seem eot have many

So it appear that our rv, “Vera” is having some trouble drinking the
kool-aid. She keeps spitting it up and getting hot. We overheated this
afternoon, off the 97, on the Yakima Indian Reservation about 20 miles south
of Toppenish, Washington. She blew a radiator hose. So we got towed to
Toppenish, and they put [...]

Well, I think you all were thinking, “that crazy old rv they got's gonna
break down somewhere”, and it appears you are all right! We overheated about
an hour or so ago, and I'm not quite sure what's wrong, but even odder is
that we have internet access! We are on a mountain road [...]
