Our last day of this trip began with waking early – at least early for the Chapman schedule – and getting Khan ready for us to leave it.  That involves eating up, donating, or storing all the food, cleaning the floors and bathrooms (Tom’s ritual for each departure,) and winterizing Khan for a long stay. …

We left the Chapman cabin fairly late morning after a walkabout of the property and some time fixing more aspects of the interior of Khan and the Polo tow bar. Scott rode with Mike while Tom tried to keep up in Khan towing Polo.  Lots of traffic and a few stories banned from the blog,…

Mike’s “Cabin” is two stories. The first floor is an 8-bay garage/shop with high ceilings and one of the bays is a large oversize one for a Camper/RV. Sitting above these garages is the cabin’s living quarters. It includes living room, kitchen, master bedroom an loft sleeping area and loft office as well as bathrooms.…

First, a few photos of scenes along the way… We departed our last campsite for this trip on our way to the Chapman Cabin in Port Angeles with a bunch of technical problems with both the electrical and brake cable connections between Khan and Polo.  We figured that we would be able to fix all…

Scott calls this special post, “Captain’s Log Supplemental, the Teleporting Level.” Loyal blog followers will recall our leveler system blowout, and how we had to use manual jacks for several weeks until it was repaired.  We used the level from our Walmart toolkit to ensured our RV was indeed level, not just stable. Some time…

First, a few photos of scenes along the way… Today was a fairly easy day.  Departing the campground after Scott’s 9AM Teams meeting, we headed towards Ocean City RV Resort in the “other” Ocean City in Washington.  It was raining and we did not see much in the way of attractions, so we arrived at…

First, a few photos of scenes from along the way… We had to wait for Scott to finish a business Teams call at 8:30AM, but left shortly afterwards for a ride in Polo for Vista House and various Falls (there are several along the Historic Columbia River Highway). While there was lots of parking at…

First, a few Photos of scenes along the way… Today this section is dedicated to the bridges and Dams along the Columbia River. Starting at our campsite in Umatilla, and the McNary Dam and Umatilla Bridge, we passed the John Day Dam, the Sam Hill Memorial Bridge, the Oregon Trunk Rail Bridge, the Dalles Dam,…

First, a few photos of scenes along the way… We woke up to very nice if a bit chilly weather in the Blackwell Island RV Resort.  Tom researched different bike paths for a morning ride, and chose North Centennial Trail, where we drove a short distance then took a 7 mile ride along the Spokane…

First, a few photos of scenes along the way… We woke to our first and last morning at the KOA in Canbrook.  Scott did a soak in the hot tub as soon as it opened at 8AM, then we puttered around the campground until 9:30AM or so – our next stop was the Cranbrook History…
