May 4th On the Road again

It is great to hit the road again with the one that I Love for ever.  We have been married for 40 years, some days are are a little bumpy but most are out of this world.  I would not trade her for anyone.  It is amazing how after this many years we are both still alive, no just kidding, she still has that little spark in her eye and I Love her.
We left this morning from our site in Spanaway about 9:00 AM.
We had a really good trip, weather was a little wet when we first left, but after we got close to the pass the weather got better.  We are on our way to Rapid City, South Dakota for a Adventure Caravans 11 Day Rally.  We are hopping to arrive there by the 7th or 8th.  We are looking forward to all of our friends that will be their.
One of the things that have come up missing while going over the pass that has come up missing is the snow shed just over the pass on the East side.  They are working widening I-90 which should keep traffic moving better over the pass.

Yep snow shed is gone!!!
Turbo is wondering what all the big deal with the snow shed being gone.  He likes to keep an eye on where we are going and lets me know when I hit the turtles marking the lanes.
We arrived here at Crescent Bar TTN at about  1:00 PM, yep we could of went a little farther but for the first day this was a good start on our trip.
We have a nice site and have never been to this park before, I think we might come back here and just sit for a couple of weeks. We have a great view of the river.  As you can see the Colombia River is a little low.
  There is a lot of beach access right now, but when they fix the dam up river it should start to rise a lot more.  Tomorrow we are hopping to make it to the 50,000 Silver Dollar Bar, they have free parking there and that will be our boon dock stay on this trip.  If we get there early we might even get electric.  They have a few sites.  Looking forward to keeping everyone informed about what we are doing and going.
