Leaving Cape Disappointment

Today is Sunday and we are leaving for Eugene, OR where the Cumming shop is located. They are one of the HWH repair facilities and where we hope to get the hydraulic system repaired.  

We have enjoyed our stay here even though we have no jacks and no slides. Its so cramped with out slides that even the cat is getting cabin fever.

Saturday weather was sunny and beautiful  we went over to Astoria and did some shopping. I picked up a set of nut drivers so, if necessary, I will have the necessary tool the release the slide valve in the event it creeps out further on our drive down. When we got back to camp it was so nice that we sat outside with Ty, who was on his leash connected to the door handle. He was also enjoying being out and was sitting in the grass under the pine trees waiting for one of the many crows to come over for a visit. We weren’t paying very much attention to him, Debbie was weaving and I was reading, when our next door neighbor yelled at us that there was a raccoon approaching our cat. Looking over Ty and the  raccoon were nose to nose about a foot apart. We rushed over and the raccoon retreated and we saved Ty.

This park is beautiful. the sites are paved and level with full hookups. There is no cell service in the campground but with the antenna and amp we had slower than dial-up internet.  On Friday we were in #24 which is close to the beach but we wanted to stay and extra night and that space was reserved so we moved to #56. The campground is less that a third full only two other units are in our circle of ten sites.

Leaving in a few minutes. Wish us luck!
