We moved again today, and the drive we had to take was only about one hour and fifteen minutes so we didn’t want to leave too early. The problem is we are now so efficient at getting everything packed away and hooked up that even when we go slow we still have it all done in a super fast time. So even with taking our time over everything we were on the road by nine this morning.
The drive was an easy one, it was all on the highway and freeway, then the campground here in Bow is literally not even a mile off I5. It was a little strange to get to the ranger station, as we sort of had to drive through Skagit casino parking lot, but it was no big deal. We arrived by ten thirty and got checked in, and thankfully there were bunches of spaces to choose from. The park is huge with over 200 spaces so there were lots of options, although getting around is a little confusing as there are lots of one way roads. We declined a number of sites because they were not satellite friendly, but finally found a perfect space amongst the trees but with a southern facing sky. We got parked unhooked and unpacked just in time for lunch.
This afternoon we drove into Bow and went to the Post Office to pick up our Amazon package. Mike got something useful (apparently) for the truck, and I got lovely red gingham reusable sandwich wraps – I am now much greener than I was this morning! On the way back from the PO we stopped off to visit the casino which is right on our doorstep. I’m not sure we’ll be going back there to gamble, but we just might have to eat at the buffet sometime this week.

Mike: Me heap big gambling man!! Ug, smokers haven!!
