Here is her Hello Kitty.
On Monday the 22nd, we lifted jacks and headed a little North to the La Conner area.
As we entered the La Conner area, we missed a turn and entered the little touristy town of La Conner. Yes....little! And narrow!
I saw this sign and thought it must point to RV and bus parking.
As I turned the corner, the road got tight and I saw this sign.
I guess big rigs shouldn't be on this street. Crap!!
I immediately saw an opportunity to get turned around in a little parking lot. Yep, I turned around in there...barely!
We made it out of a messy situation.
We back-tracked and got on the right street that bypassed the downtown area and found the park.
The place was pretty wooded.
We found a nice space in the loop that had full hookups.
It is a beautiful place, but very poor Verizon cell service and internet.
The next day, I thought I was feeling a cold coming on. We'll se... Later, we drove around the area. We headed to Anacortes. Down by the docks, we found a ship yard where big ships get dry docked and worked on. I thought this was pretty cool.
We traveled through the historic district with all the touristy shops, to a park. From the Cap Sante Lookout,
we took some pics of the beautiful views of Anacortes and the San Juan Islands.
We then headed over the Deception Pass bridge.
And on to Deception Pass State Park.
We had stayed there in a tent many, many years ago. It was fun to see the area again.
On the way back to the RV park, we went back through La Conner. It was less stressful without the RV. Classic cars were gathering at Nasty Jacks Antique shop.
Pretty neat little town. We ended up at the La Conner Brewery for lunch.
Yep, I have a cold. It is amazing how we take for granted our health when we are not sick. I hope this passes fast. I the mean time, Nyquil, Mucinex, and lots of liquid and rest.
I think I'll take a nap now.....:(
This was the first area we visited when we first hit the road in 2010. La Conner is a beautiful town but back then many businesses had closed due to the economy. Hopefully things have changed. We loved this whole area.
