Shortly after our arrival, my good friend for 62 years, Al Penta who lives about one mile away, stopped by for a visit. We spent an enjoyable two hours catching up on the happenings of the last two years since we were last here…
Mary has pressing business awaiting at her home in California. Tomorrow I’ll drive her in the Bronco to SeaTac Airport where she’ll catch a fight home. After dropping her off, I’ll go to the Seattle VA Hospital for an eye exam and my annual physical…which I missed last year. I’ll remain here for a few more days having some work done on the Bronco and hopefully the motorhome by my friend and mechanic, Kenny. Once the work is completed, I’ll head for Mary’s home in California.
Yesterday was a cloudy and cold day with some showers. High temperature for the day was 57.
Forecast high temperature for today is 61 degrees and sunny with a shower.
Enjoying Thousand Trails RV Resorts is another joy in the life of a full-time RVer!

It’s pretty typical to have sunshine and blue skies in Leavenworth, only to find fog and cloud cover as soon as you go over the pass…
