Hey y'all. So we are back to the surface of the sun. Opps, I mean back in Kooskia, ID.... Sorry for the confusion!

Man, other than seeing friends and family, I no longer enjoy being here. I have developed a wicked dry throat, feel like I can't drink enough water to even wet my lips, I feel as though I am being broiled alive, and I look like I have Aboriginal feet by the amount of dust they get covered with, within 3 steps outside! Our 2 AC units (a window one and a large portable one) wouldn't cool a lunchbox, nevertheless our bus, so that doesn't help.

Yes I am complaining. But that's ok, it is miserable here, so complaining is ok. Hahaha! We have to be here for Doctors Appts, otherwise we would have already headed back to the coast! Don't get me wrong, Idaho is beautiful. The people are great. If you liked hot weather,it's got that too. I'm over hot and I'm over snow, so Idaho isn't for me anymore.

But any way, we are here. The bus did great on the trip back from Crescent City, CA. We stopped at Jessie M Honeymoon State Park outside of the Newport,OR area (don't remember exactly where, the heat has ruined my memory haha!) for one of the nights. Great park, easy access and great showers! Would have liked to have arrived in the daylight to do some exploring, but maybe on the next trip through.

The next night we stayed at Kampers-West RV Park just outside of Astoria,OR. Very nice park, easy access, paved parking pads and decent showers/toilets. They do have a Rec Room with a pool table, air hockey table, and foosball table. (It was closed when we pulled in....dark again). We definitely would stay there again!

So now we are in River Junction RV Park in Kooskia, ID. Small park. Odd prices, $28/night, $125/week, $175(plus elec)/month...... Doesn't make sense, but cheaper than 3 miles down the road at a KOA... $375/month! There are downfalls here, probably more than need be, but it's cheap and the coin-op shower (not showerS, shower, as in only one) is hot, and the single male and the single female toilets flush, so you can't really complain...

Well, gotta run, stuff to do before we hit 90,
God Bless y'all!
