While staying here at Crescent Bar, Donna and I have settled into an exercise routine. We get out early (kinda) in the morning and go for a walk together. The temps here have gotten into the high 90s during the day, and only down to 70 or so at night. We get out around 7:30 am and begin our walk.
There is a pretty good hill from the campground here by the Columbia River, and it goes 2 miles up the winding road to meet up with Highway 28. It is a good uphill walk.
We take water to drink and a spray bottle to cool us off. Temps are close to 80 when we start, with no shade. There are quite a few walkers and runners we meet on our outing.
Nice view along the way too. At times we can see an elk herd down by the river on the other side.
We also got to watch our Grandson Rome while his Dad, Tim, had foot surgery. Rome got to spend a couple of nights in 'Papa's RV'. We had a great time.
Ipad puzzle master!
We walked down the road to the beach and Rome got to play in the sand.
He also helped clean up the beach by getting rid of a lot of big rocks.
And right across from the beach was a big playground.
Time to play!
It was hot out and they had a gi-normus sprinkler going. Man, could that thing put out the water.
We got cooled off real good.
A nice cool fun day in the park.
We then drove up to the top of Stevens Pass on Highway 2, to meet Tim and Shannon. There is a large ski area there and a mountain bike park as well as sight-seeing rides up the chair lifts. We watched them while waiting for Mom & Dad to arrive.
A beautiful day in the mountains. Pretty cool too.
Here is Rome doing some 'weed control'.
Mom & Dad arrived and Rome told them about his adventures with us in 'Papa's RV'.
And we have now moved back to East Wenatchee to house sit for our friends Bruce & Carol while they take their motorhome on a trip to Alaska. We are watching their house and I take care of their apricot orchard (watering and mowing) till they return in early September.
We have the rig shoe-horned in their RV garage.
We have a few things to take care of around here, then when they return.....we are free to take off!
Walking, Watching, and Waiting.
