Washington State














After a one night stop in Spokane to do some major shopping at Costco and Super Wal-Mart, we traveled to Leavenworth, where we stayed at theThousand Trails park. We stopped there to meet Happy Trails friends Mike & Bev Rugland, and Ollie & Judy Carreiro. I also got to visit with my friend Fritzy. However, I think he doesn't like me cause he hisses at me a lot! One afternoon as Peggy & Bev were coming back from lunch in town, they see this big coach backing in the site next to Mike & Bev - would you believe, it was Marty & Gladys, who are friends of John & Peggy's from Monaco Romers. Small world we live in. We all had dinner together and a wonderful visit that evening.

Next stop was the Thunderbird Preserve in Monroe, WA. There we met up with Happy Trails friends Tom & Jan Tuller. It was a great week of quite relaxation. John & Peggy did a lot of reading and puttering. We were parked right on the river........the days were warm and the nights cool, and we even got some of that famous Washington rainy weather. We went out to dinner a few nights, and one evening we were joined by more Happy Trails friends, Glenn & Terry Mann.
