Rain, Rain, Go Away!

A rainbow leaving glacier

Thursday June 20th was a long night with very little sleep. It stormed all night....rain, wind, lightning, thunder, and even HAIL! I was worried about the wind tearing the awnings over the slide outs so we closed them and were all tight inside the RV with no room to move around. It did make things a little quieter though. We left St. Mary's Campground at Glacier around 8 am Friday for a long day of travel- in the rain! Driving West through the rest of Montana, all of Idaho and into Washington State stopping in Spokane for dinner.







At Golden Corral, there was a kid next to our table that consumed over 20 mini corn dogs. Well at least his mom and dad got their money's worth on that meal.

See what a fun day of driving we had...

We continued to drive until reaching a KOA in Ellensburg, WA. I passed the entrance to the campground due to trees covering the sign and ended up back on the interstate with no choice but to drive 3 miles back to another exit and come back to try again. Everyone was exhausted and it was late so we got some much needed rest.






 
 





The next morning, the rain was gone and we had lots of laundry to get done. Jason worked on that chore while I got caught up on the blog and checked emails using the free Wi-Fi.



 





 We managed to break something else on the RV and started looking for a dealer in town. A piece of metal on the inside door latch sheared off and now we were locked in. Of course, Jason rigged that too, temporarily! He spoke to Jayco on the phone trying to get us a part ready and waiting at a shop when we got to Seattle area but it was Friday afternoon and most places were thinking of nothing but "quittin' time". Guess we will have to wait and see when Monday morning rolls around. In the meantime, on to our next stop....
