Thousand Trails Oceana RV Resort – Ocean Shores, Washington

Yesterday I drove the motorhome the 105 miles from Forks to Ocean Shores, Washington. The motorhome is now parked at Thousand Trails Oceana RV Resort on the coast of the Pacific Ocean at Ocean Shores, Washington where we are members. We will depart tomorrow.

The below Google Earth image shows the central western area of the Washington coast known as Grays Harbor. we will be in this general area for the next few days. Our current parking location is marked by the “TT” at the top. All the other indicators are markers I use to to help me find places in the area I’m currently visiting. For instance, on Thursday we will move to “TH” on the bottom of the image which is Twin Harbors State Park. Google Earth is a great assistance to me with my full-time RVing lifestyle.

As always you may left click upon an image to see an enlarged view and then click once again to see an even larger view…

Most of yesterday’s travel was heading south on U.S. Highway 101…

I’ve stayed in this park a number of times over the years. Mary and I were last here in 2011. This is just a lay-over stop as we head south. Laundry day today.

This is our camping spot where I’m not even going to unhook the Bronco…

And the usual dinette window photo…

I HOPE YOU ENJOYED THE PHOTOS.
