MOSTLY IDAHO
We left Manson after doing some work on our house and visiting with Jim’s brother for 2 weeks, we stayed at the Mill Bay Casino at night, they offer 8 campsites with free power. The weather was good, we did have two trips to Wenatchee where we took advantage of the great bike path along the river. Great 12 mile loop! We headed out for a trip through Idaho, based a lot on bike trails we want to ride. Unfortunately the weather sucked! It just kept raining. We stopped in Spokane at the Elks. We did get one 18 mile bike ride in on a cold sunny morning along the Centennial Trail. And Jim found a community center to play pickleball a few days. We finally decided to go south towards Boise as that was where the sun was shining. We headed south stopping in Lewiston & Clarkston ahhhh the sun was shining!!!


Joseph sits in the north east corner of Oregon. We had heard about this little town at Wallowa Lake from good friends Laurie and Odel. It just intrigued us so after many years we have finally arrived. They weren’t exaggerating. The town is charming, a nice mix of not too many gift stores, several art galleries, quite a few restaurants. Walking down the street one can’t help but be impressed with the many bronze statues on every corner.


Wallowa Lake a scenic glacial lake. At the south end sits a year round State Park with 121 full hookup sites. It’s a full service park with yurts, showers, laundry etc. Surrounding the park our 3 private RV parks, some cabins, water bumper cars for the little kids, horse back riding, and a tram that takes you up 8000 ft.

Jim's Hand
Jim has a hand condition called Dupuytrens Contracture. The collagen builds up around the tendon causing it to contract. Luckily for Jim in the last two years a medication called Xilaflex has been used by injection to eliminate the collagen making it possible to straighten out the affected finger. The next day the finger was almost as straight as the others. Yeah no surgery!
