Just found - Not Wired!

Note…The post below titled “Not Wired!” was written a couple of years ago using Windows Live Writer.  I saved it as a draft and never got around to publishing it.  I still use Live Writer. 

I’m using Windows Live Writer to write this post.  I’m currently not “on-line”.  This is a first for me.  We are at a ROD property south of Newport, OR and it is a Thousand Trails resort…Whaler’s Rest  Resort.  Fortunately for us, we were able to get a huge site.  Most of the sites are very narrow and shallow.  If we had been here 30 minutes later the site we’re on would have been taken by someone else.  This is the first park we’ve been in that “you go find your site and come back and let the office know which one you took”. We have very spotty Verizon cell phone service ( 1 to 0 blips) and zip on Internet.  I have to go to the clubhouse where there is Wi-Fi. 

Talk about a change in weather.  Just a couple of days ago it was 192 and rising.  Today, Tim wants the heat on.  Barely 60.  Lucy’s looking at me asking for her blankets.  I have found WalMart, Fred Meyer’s and Dutch Brothers Coffee.  Life is good.

This picture was taken at Boardman RV Park and Marina in Boardman, OR (next to the Columbia River).  The park is run by the Parks and Recreation Dept and is very well maintained.  It is also a Good Sam park.

I have to go turn the heat on…they are both looking at me shivering.
