Travel Day - Plan C

We left Twin Rivers Canyon early with the intent of one or two RV parks on Highway 2 on the way in to Spokane. As I read further about these two parks, it became apparent that there was a bridge we would have to go under that had a height restriction of 13 foot 2 inches. We know we are close to 13 foot but as we are not sure exactly of our height, we decided that we would not take that particular route.

On to Plan B. We took Highway 95 down to I-90 with the plan of staying at the Spokane KOA for the night. When we got to the particular exit, it was closed for construction and the area looked to congested to try to maneuver our way around.

OK, on to Plan C. We got fuel in Reardon, WA ($4.97 - .34 cents more than we paid yesterday in Troy, MT) and reconnoitered where we were going to stop for the night. We decided to drive on to Ephrata, WA as there weren't a lot of other choices. John pulled over somewhere past Davenport, WA and I took over driving to Ephrata. We had one RV park in mind but it appears to be no longer in existence. Thank goodness the town had another RV park (http://www.oasisrvandgolfresort.com/) and we were able to get a spot. Thank goodness our schedule allows the flexibility and we can roll with the punches. John and I are of the opinion that eastern central Washington does not have the "it factor" for us at all. Ephrata appears to be a depressed little town in the barren lands of the state of Washington.

After showering, I was on the phone to see if we could get to another RV Park up the road in a more wooded area of Washington on our way to Preston, WA to meet up with Melissa. YEAH! They had room for us for three nights so we will be out of here tomorrow. The park is nice enough and we are not having any electric power issues but there is nothing appealing about this area to make us want to stay longer. Hopefully, the town of Cle Elum, WA will have a better feel to it.

We went out to top off the truck and paid $4.99 for diesel ... the closer to Seattle we get, the higher the cost for fuel.
