Hi All: Sorry, have not been on the Blog for a few days. Have been real busy. Stopped in Seattle for a visit with Amy's Cousin's, Joe and Judy Harrison. We had a wonderful time with them. They were so gracious and fun to be with. They took us to Pike Place Market that is the biggest and best Farmers market I have ever seen. I did get some good fruit, and some peanuts there. Amy got I'm not sure what, but It looked like a lot.????Above is the Space Needle there in Seattle. We didn't go up in it, but we did drive by it. Neat....
Here I am "Waitin' on a woman in Pike's Place Market. Not sure what the name of the shop she is in, but she was in there for about 4 hours. (Just seemed like it). I was lucky, she came out with just one small bag....hee hee.
Above is the campground we are in here in Susanville, CA. We got here today, 29 Aug. We left the Interstate highway system today and headed down the East side of California. It is beautiful along this route. Would have put more photo's on the Blog, but the Internet is real slow here. Takes about 5 minutes to load each photo on the blog. This campground is one of the nicest places we've been so far. All concrete slabs for each site. Our rig is down about two on the left. Beautiful area. Well taken care of. Susanville RV Park, in Susanville, CA. Will be leaving for Bridgeport CA in the morning to meet with a great guy I was in the USMC with. John Van Deursan. Think I misspelled his last name. Always called him Van... They are driving 3 1/2 hours away to meet us there in Bridgeport to visit with us while we are there. Looking forward to seeing him and His Wife Diane.. We will be there two nights. The last time I was in Bridgeport was at the "Escape and Evasion" school of the USMC. They beat the crap out of me then. That was back in 1962 I think....
Well, all is going great yet, and we are still having a great time. Area here is beautiful, and the temp is around 56 here today. We are at about 4300 feet elevation.... Will be going down a little going to 29 Palms.
Semper Fi.
Don, Amy & Pharaoh.
Oh man, 29 Palms,let me know if anything has changed there. After spending 4 years there, you don't forget much. Jumbo rocks picnic area and the snakes...had some great picnics there. Glad yall having a good time.
