Travel Day


We finally left the state park about 10am. The new FRS radios we bought yesterday worked real well in hooking up the truck to the motorhome. We drove to The Dalles and then east to take US Hwy 97 northeast to Yakima.

From there we drove to a private campground outside of Seattle called Tall Chief. We had found a brochure earlier in the trip where we could stay free for three nights at this campground if we agreed to listen to their sales pitch. Well, we got to stay there for four nights for free and eventually heard their spiel. A campground membership to this group of campgrounds for about $7,500. Very expensive but at least they were nice about it. We even got a check for $50.00 for listening!

The picture was taken halfway between the Columbia River and Yakima. It is amazing how far away you can see these volcanic mountains.
