August 9 - August 12 - Verde Valley TTN (Cottonwood, AZ)

Back to civilization at last. After spending 6 or the past 7 days without water, electricity or sewer, it is great to be at Thousand Trails with all the amenitites. Yes, it is hot, but there is a beautiful pool for colling off. We'll be cleaning and rearranging the trailer to ready it for going into storage in Casa Grande when we get back on Thursday.

August 8 - Wal-Mart (Page, AZ)

Starting to be a pattern of drive a lot, then sleep at Wal-Mart. Another 300 miles today to the Wal-Mart in Page, AZ. There is actually a beautiful view of the desert from here!

August 7 - Wal-Mart (Layton, UT)

Made the approximate 300 mile drive from Dillon, MT to Layton, UT. Stopped for the night in the Wal-Mart parking lot.

August 6 - Countryside RV Park (Dillon, MT)

We left Glacier this morning and took the southern route to our stopping point in Dillon, MT. This was a beautiful drive today with the exception of a very brief wind/rain/hail storm that took us by surprise for a few minutes. High winds and thunderstorms are predicted tonight, but at least we are off the road.

August 4-5 Glacier National Park (Montana)

We arrived early enough to get a good camping spot in A Loop in the Apgar campground at Glacier National Park. Ray enjoyed a hike at an area known as Avalanche Pass on Tuesday while I relaxed back at the campground. On Wednesday we both took the transit bus to Logan's Pass and walked around and took some pictures. We enjoyed meeting new friends Cal and Anita who we visited with later in the evening back at the campground.

August 3 - Wal-Mart (Kalispell, MT)

August 3: We arrived too late in the day to obtain a campsite at Glacier National Park, so we spent the night in the Wal-Mart Parking lot in Kalispell. Very uneventful.

July 22 - August 2 Little Diamond TTN Preserve (Newport, WA)

July 31 - Arrived here at Little Diamond on Tuesday and claimed what we feel is the perfect campsite. Plenty of room for the tents that we will need for Erika and family this weekend. Weather is a little cool at night, so we'll see if they are hardy souls and stay outside in their tents or if they quietly creep in to claim floor space! Looking forward to a few days of swimming, fishing and campfires. As you can see, it is beautiful here.
