Clean up time Wish Poosh


We have now been working for the past few weeks and have our campsite a bit more cleaned up than this picture shows. There is always so much debris from the winter all over the place. We have cleaned roads and campsites and restrooms and were told we were the cleanest ever for opening day. ha! This has been quite a time for us.
Upon arrival we did not have electricity so after 2 weeks of fussing with the electricity, replacing the transfer switch and finally resorting to taking rig into Ellensburg we learned it was the actual shore power! The wire (abt 100') there was a bad spot in the wire and the plug was loosely connected. Earl had checked the power source with a meter but apparently there is more than one sort of meter - so did not find at 1st. After expecting to have to replace the inverter we learned it was just the wire so now we are fixed and have tv and everything... we are now happy campers.
Earl did have an MRI for his head and all we know is he needs to see a neurologist. That won't happen for a while yet and the guy won't talk to him over the phone so we wait and since no pain involved we try not to worry too much.
Last weekend was our 1st one open and only had 7 campsites taken but was very busy out at the boat launch. We had a picture perfect weekend and expect nice weather again this weekend so expect we will be very busy. Lake Kachess is not open yet so think we will fill up early. We'll see - last year Memorial Weekend was not full for us but then the weather wasn't that great either.
Had some great Canadians this past week. They have endured through all the "very cold" days and burned a lot of wood but that is what camping is all about. Their children are making some great memories for the future.. ha!

Hingham, MA

Before leaving Hingham I finally was able to get a picture of this sign.  Massachusetts has one for each of their towns and it's such a kick to drive from one town to another and see this sign with date of settlement started.  Hard to get pictures because you don't know where the town line begins and there is no place to pull over for a quick stop and picture.  It's a bummer. On this one I was lucky enough after a month to be driving towards sign and 1st at stoplight with camera next to me. ha!  All these towns are so historic and have some wonderful history.  Too bad so many have been neglected.  Roads are terrible in most places and some are really run down while others thrive.. just like anywhere.  Just interesting observations. I was taken so much with Hingham because we lived there for 5 weeks and it was so CLEAN!  Loved the manicured yards and over 1800 historic homes and some still in residence of 13 generations!  That is something in this young country with so littl

We were surprised to have Earl III come down for a very short visit in Aug 2017 and took him up to Sedona and Taliesin West to see Frank Lloyd Wright's art school.  Very interesting tour and unique setting.  Of course homes are crowding in on this area now so not the seclusion that was intended when originally built.

It was a bit of a surprise to see this guy swoop down on this dove at our "quail block" the other day.  He sat there looking around long enough for us to get a few pictures then flew off to eat in private.  Thank goodness he took the dove with him instead of feasting right there.  They have to eat too; and all that but it is disturbing to come out and see a pile of feathers.  I can speak from past experience they do not leave anything behind besides feathers.. no skin or bones or waste...  Pretty isn't it...
