TUESDAY,
SEPT 16:
Another
lovely morning, but could see that it was becoming cloudier. We had talked about spending another day
here, and exploring the southeast section of the National Park, but that was
predicated upon our not having to move the RV.
Which we found out we’d have to do this morning, to a back-in space,
surrounded by trees. We decided that it
just wasn’t worth it. We saw Mt. Rainier
at its finest, and anything we saw today would be less stellar because of the
haze coming in. We’re just so grateful
that we got to experience this wonderful National Park for two days in perfect
weather. It’s truly one of our nation’s
wondrous gems!
We spent
the morning taking our time getting ready . . . eating a leisurely breakfast of
blueberry pancakes, sausage, & hashed browns, and then just enjoying the
surrounding woods while Bill got everything ready to go. So we didn’t leave
until between 12:30 and 1:00.
It was
less than 100 miles to our next RV park, in Everett, WA, a northern suburb of
Seattle, but took about 2 ½ hours to arrive, because of the narrow, curvy road
the first 40 miles or so, and then because of Puget Sound traffic for the
remaining miles. In the middle of the
day, and looked and felt like rush
hour! We found our RV park and got set up
easily. A nice, extremely clean, quiet
urban park. There’s a lovely little pond
at one end of it, where you can even fish.
What a nice touch for a city/suburban RV park!
We’ve booked for 7 nights here. Will go into Seattle at least a couple of
times, and see my niece Sara.
Celebrated our safe arrival here with a wonderful grilled steak and
veggies, and nice merlot.
