Dawley Ranch: Here We Come!

We've stayed at our good friends' Curt & Diane's place in SE Washington state multiple times.  In fact, this will be our 4th time to park the rig there!  So, on Sunday, August 18th, we left Missoula at around 10:00 a.m. and arrived at Blackwell Island RV Park in Coeur d'Alene, ID at around 2:00 p.m.  Nice park...  And, a nice afternoon to hang out on the sand watching the boats and reading our Kindles...

We left Coeur d'Alene at 9:15 a.m. on Monday, August 19th and arrived at the Dawley Ranch at 2:45 p.m.  Always fun parking here!  They have a pretty long driveway that they share with a neighbor, so at the top of the hill, just before their gate, we get turned around (a several minute process) and back in the rest of their driveway so we can park in front of the garage where the hook-ups are.  But, once we're there, the fun begins!  We always enjoy wonderful meals (which John & Diane plan and execute, all of us eat, and generally Curt & I do clean-up) and do a little sightseeing once-in-awhile!  But this time, we have more than just a little sightseeing trip planned...  We're all going to Prince of Wales Island in SE Alaska and meet the other two of our close-knit group of six!  SO looking forward to this trip!

We spent the next few days helping get everything ready for our trip.  And, finally Friday, August 23rd arrived...
