After several years that worl wind never stopped, but what you didn't realize is that it catches you like a fish net reals ya in hook line and sinker and never lets go from then on. Befor you know it the years go by and you realize wow has it been that long, its just not possable. You meet so many different c… Continue

The only two problems i had like everyone else was the wifi and the EDR food , know if they could fix those two it'd be awesome place to go back to each summer . For example , I'd love to my bring my Toyota up there and still travel the back roads some more. But I hear the return rate for next year isn't going to be as big from our season , a lot of them aren't coming back . Have a great winter , best wishes .

At 9:23pm on August 8, 2009, RICK & VIRG TOWNER said…: So you were in Washington when Mt. St. Helens blew. So was I. I was living in Spokane, WA at the time working for a bank. Once the ash come down on us we had to batten the hatches at the computer center and spend 24/7 there as the State Patrol didn't want us to travel. My neighbors helped my family wash down the house and property while I was stuck downtown at work. The ash cause havic for many years. We are jealous that you have been doing this for 11 years and we are just getting started. Enjoy the end of your summer.
