What Are Quilters Blogging About Today?

Good morning, my friends. If you read yesterday's post, then you already know our yesterday was spent sight-seeing in the nearby towns of Zillah and Toppenish. We left the RV early to head down the road a mile to have a breakfast of our beloved Egg McMuffins, and then we made our trek to both towns. We were back at the camper before noon. We were staying in one of the less desirable private RV parks. I can't complain too much. The place was nothing fancy. The worst part is that the surrounding area is populated by feedlots ...

Good morning, my friends. We had another short drive yesterday…in the 90 mile range. We were back-tracking over some roads through the town of Quincy. Eventually, we came over a rise and took in this view of the Columbia River. We were going to cross the bridge you see below.

Good morning, my friends. We had a blissfully short drive yesterday...just 44 miles to our location here in Electric City, Washington. The town was established in 1934 as a place to house workers for the Grand Coulee Dam project. Some of the original buildings were relocated here from the nearby town of Osbourne. Osbourne was inundated when the dam was built. Electric City was incorporated in 1950.

This is the view of Banks Lake from our campsite. Banks Lake resulted from the damming of the Columbia River.

Good morning, my friends. Yesterday’s drive was pretty easy. Just about 90 miles, and almost no traffic. We’re in the hinterlands, and so there’s not a lot to see. We passed by a few barns.

Good morning, my friends. Oh my...what a pretty place we find ourselves in today. We drove into Winthrop, Washington, yesterday afternoon.

Good evening, my friends. We had an easy drive today. It was gray and cloudy, but we only encountered a slight drizzle as we arrived at our final destination of Marblemount. It's a community of just about 350 people, and considered the "gateway" to North Cascades National Park. (That black line through the image below is the antenna on our truck.)

It was a good day for barns. 

We're seeing lots ...

Good afternoon, my friends. Fortunately, we didn't have far to go to reach our latest stop because it was a horrible day of weather. We find ourselves in La Conner, Washington, this afternoon. We couldn't check in here until 1:00. We had just a little more than an hour's drive from Flowing Lake SP, and checkout time there was noon, so it all worked out. I had plenty of time to play my word games, and to make a little more progress on the flock. I love those sheep faces.

Good afternoon, my friends. We had a beautiful day of weather for our hike. It was some distance away...not mileage wise, but time wise. It was about 36 miles from where we are, but it took nearly an hour to drive there because of all the twists and turns. Along the way we passed by this barn. (Sorry about the buggy windshield.)

 Good afternoon, my friends. I wrote a one-sentence post a couple of hours ago in which I indicated I wouldn't be in touch for a couple of days. If you're old enough to remember Gilda Radner in her Emily Litella character, please remember her voice when she said, "Never Mind." (And if you're not old enough to remember Gilda, just know she was very, very funny, and she died way too young.)

We find ourselves in Flowing Lake County Park in Snohomish, Washington, this afternoon. We're in an area with dense forest canopy, and so Starlink ...
