It's Friday, where's my Horizon

Although they promised without a doubt the Horizon would be finished on Friday. Guess what? It's not ready. To be fair it's not Roy Robinson's fault. The last door that was going to be shipped overnight wasn't. Instead the door arrived late Thursday afternoon.

The new doors look like the temporary doors I put on!

Well, maybe not!

It was the right door but the gas lifts were installed wrong which allowed the door to swing up too high and into the path of the slideout. All the doors were that way so Bob was busy fixing that today. At least they are all on now. Dave said they would start painting Monday and the Horizon should be ready to roll on Tuesday. We'll be returning to our lot at Port Susan because we still need to move all our stuff in the shed back into the Horizon and then move all the stuff in the screen room back into the shed. Then winterize our lots. We will probably will leave for home on Thanksgiving Day. The passes in Washington all have snow on the ground now but I don't think we will be affected going down I5. We plan to cut over to the coast at Salem and have reservation at Beverly Beach State CG for Thursday and at the Embarcadero Hotel and Restaurant for Thanksgiving dinner.

We extended our stay at the "Inn at Port Gartner" for three more $$ days. Its located between the Everett Marina, "the biggest public marina on the west coast", and the Everett Naval Station.

They have been dredging the marina next to the Inn and one day they were right out side our french doors. The two small boats steer by pushing on the sides and the tug provides the propulsion.


They were taking this load out to dump somewhere and now the barge and tug are anchored back in front of our room.
