Arrived at Trevor's

We traveled from the Thousand Trails Preserve without too many problems. The neighboring camper stayed around in the event we needed some assistance. The Jeep started and we moved it a hundred feet to the nearest roadway. We backed the motor home to it, in order to hook it up to the tow bar. It actually was much easier than I had envisioned!

On the way North we stopped at the Tillamook Cheese Factory for a tour. We had visited the plant a few years earlier, bu they were on strike so we didn't see the cheese making process. It was fun and interesting. We stayed for a few hours before heading out, of course we stocked up on cheese and Marcie had an ice cream cone.
The drive north was uneventful ALTHOUGH we had to go over the humoungest Astoria-Megler Bridge at Astoria, Oregon. The bridge’s main span is 1,232 feet in length, the longest “continuous truss” in the world and it's total length is 4.1 miles.

As we drove into the Shelton area, it was almost like returning home as it was all so familiar to us. Of course the very last part of the trip was so slow as we both were anxious to see the "kids" and "grand kids". Seemed like it took forever to travel the remaining few miles.

What a delight to see the family! The grand kids have grown so much, they were all talkative and full of energy. We simply parked the motor home and enjoyed their company. Trevor and Connie looked healthy, they had both lost weight and Trevor had dropped quite a bit of weight, wish we could do the same.

The important thing was that we were with "family".
