Ferndale, Washington

We left home yesterday morning at 9:45 for the 28 mile drive across the border to the RV Resort where we keep our 5th wheel stored.  We made a quick stop at the duty free and jumped into the Nexus lane but sure enough – a computer generated random check sent us inside for a secondary check.  When the border guard went out to check the car I had to go with her and remove the cat because he doesn’t travel in a crate.  I took him back inside to wait and he entertained everyone by being cute and cuddly.  After a short wait, we were back in the jeep and on our way.  *Time delay of only 20 minutes.

We rolled into The Cedars RV Resort just after 11:00am and were assigned to site 125.  It is a wide, long, pull through site with full hook-ups.  I dropped Lou off at the truck and trailer and met him at our site.  After hooking up the electric, water and sewer we turned on the fridge, hot water, air conditioner and unloaded the car. 
The Entrance to the RV Resort.

The office, store, laundry and clubhouse.

A quick run to Fred Meyer’s for groceries and gas and then Jack in the Box drive through.  Gas was down from 2 weeks ago and cost $3.32 a gallon. Back at the RV we unloaded the groceries and set up the satellite dish.  By 1:30pm we were done, relaxed and living the goodlife once again.  Life is good!

Set up on our site.

We will be here for a week of R&R before crossing the border back into Canada.  The sun is shining, the outdoor recliner is comfy and the drinks are cold.  Aaaaaaa.............
