Mary is no longer available for RV traveling, but we remain good friends.
Because we have 4,000+ postings, I’ve invited her to continue posting entries on this blog.
I’m currently in my 22nd year of full-time RVing and my lifestyle is changing, For more info click Here
Yesterday I drove the motorhome 22 miles from La Connor to the Thousand Trails Mount Vernon RV Resort located in Bow, a few miles north of Mount Vernon, Washington. I’ll depart here August 2nd.
I’ve been here several times in past years. My membership allows a maximum of a three-week stay, out for one-week and then you can return to the first park.
I’m just hanging out taking maximum advantage of my Thousand Trails membership and very agreeable weather.
Bow, Washington has a population of 6,099, and as a child, the famous CBS news correspondent Edward R. Murrow lived here.
The below Google Earth images show the relative locations. The upper right is Bow and lower left is La Conner which I’ll move back to after my nine-day stay here…
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…
While the campground appears to be near Interstate Highway 5, it is buffeted heavily by beautiful tall fir trees. Only a little very low highway noise can be heard when the wind is out of the west…
My camping site…
And the usual dinette window photo…
I’ve been here a number of times in past years. Below are photos taken in past years…
First the ranger station…
The Olympic-size swimming pool…
The spa…
One view of the lodge building…
A closer view…
The adult lodge is on the lower level…
A welcome sign in the hallway…
The family lodge is on the upper level…
And a final view of the other side of the lodge building…
There are a number of reasons that this area is my favorite place to spend the summer, such as: scenic beauty, agreeable climate, clean air, friendly people, and no bugs are some.
I HOPE YOU ENJOYED THE PHOTOS.
Forecast for today is sunny and 79 degrees.
Enjoying nice weather is another joy in the life of a full-time RVer!

Enjoying 65-75 degree temperatures with low humidity most of the year is a primary joy in the RVing lifestyle!
