Almost there

We are now in Moses Lake, WA. We arrived here just before noon. This is a nice park. It is an ROD park and for a change we are not in the least desirable section of the park.

We drove from Rapid City on Friday to Reed Point, MT. We have stayed at this park in the past and it is a nice overnight park. Cheap and it has no amenities. Wifi is non existent in this park or that part of Montana. There is no cable tv and you can't get local stations unless you have an antenna that is 30 feet tall. So we watched a movie and went to bed early.
It doesn't get dark until 10 pm there, so the night shades were closed in the bedroom.

We stayed in a park that we used last year in Missoula. It is a very nice park, well landscaped and well taken care of. It is a bit pricey, but it was close to town and church, yet very quiet.
Speaking of church, we went back to the church that we went to last year, It is old and Gothic with Frescoes on all flat or curved surfaces. It is ornate and beautiful.
The song leader for the 5pm mass, had a beautiful voice and he did not need a sound system.

We will be at Lake Sammamish tomorrow and we will see the family tomorrow also.
Fred called while we were on our way here and said just go ahead and drive the extra 165 miles today. I said I didn't think so as we had driven 300 miles today already.
The last 16 miles of I-90 in MT is very rough road. We had to be very careful when we opened the cabinets as much had shifted during that stretch of road. I even slowed down to 50 miles an hour with the speed limit of 75. Nobody was driving that fast though and one person followed us all the way into Idaho.
Nothing broke and we arrived in one piece, so all is good.

Ta ta for now.
