June 6th, we headed to Yakima and checked into the Yakima RV Park. It was just a 93 mile drive. Thank goodness! Did I mention that gas prices suck? We did manage to find a cheap gas station in Quincy. Paid just $5.59 a gallon for diesel. It is over $6.00 now. Did I mention that gas prices suck?
Our extended camping spot.
This will do us just fine. 50 amp FHU for $525 per month, and we pay for our electric.
It rained several days here, and during a 3 day dry spell, I worked on our solar panels.
Just about done with them.
Being just 5 or 6 miles away from our daughter in Selah, we have been able to spend quite a bit of time with our grand daughters Ally & Jessie.
Here are a few pictures of the Yakima RV Park. They do have a inside pool, laundry, and rec room.
The entrance..
There are some huge trees here. Not good for sattelite TV reception, but great for shade.
Pictures of the older, more tight part of the park. ($450.00 per month). The 'Super Sites' are on the other side of the fence.
Another big ole tree.
An empty spot in the front part of the park.
The 'Super Sites' area. Much more room.
Many folks here have huge propane tanks for surviving the winter here.
Here we are.
A look at our solar panels.
We even have a small shed to use.
We will probably be here while I work the fire camps, till maybe mid October. Then it may be a winter in southern Texas... did I mention that gas prices suck?
The Fergs out .......
Again, great job on the solar system! You want to see sucky diesel prices come north of the border, they are even worse!
ReplyDeleteLooks like a great spot to settle for the summer. As Jim pointed out, diesel up here in Canada is just crazy! Here on the west coast the price is about $2.59/litre...that's darn near $10/gallon!
