Some of June...................

Here we are again...............and June is nearing an end.  I really thing that the older you get, the more everything kicks into high speed.

End of May, We traveled up to Spokane for a visit with Shane, Tirza and family.  The Farm Chicks two-day antique show was being held the weekend we were there.  Tirza  had her tea booth set up and I found a few little items.  An old, very well made quilt; which is on our bed now.  Twenty Five bucks.  A metal thing that is hanging on a tree down by my pens.  Three extremely large buildings full of old stuff or things that have been made out of old stuff.  Great weekend.

Wondering into June, Devin had her Hood to Hood run.  Her team finished fine...they were troopers considering the weather had warmed up and being on the pavement felt like the 90's.  We stayed at an RV Park that was along the highway, train tracks and river.  It was nice but not our first choice.  Brooks, Devin and Mason tent camped with us.  Everytime we crossed the river, we had to pay a toll!

After our trip to Seaside for clamming, we have been home.  I like it.  We were gone for three weeks in a row.  Here for three or four and gone.  Repeat and repeat again. 

Our next trip is Chief Joseph day's.

Seaside-Clamming June 14th thru 19th

Left Friday for Seaside Thousand Trails.  We got lucky and someone canceled so we did not have to stay at Pacific City for one night ...move...in overflow for one night..move again....

I have to say that this TT RV has improved.  Last times we have been there, it has shown signs of a struggle and in need of good management.  It felt like they are under good direction now.

Clamming with Cliff and Gayle and met their friends, Bill and Jane and their grandson, Carter.

First morning (on the beach at 5:00 am)  they were skimpy to find.  Cliff limited out but no one else did.  Next mornings, we went north up to the jetty and we ALL had our limits by 7:30!!!

Weather was nice and the company was grand.
