TRAINS AND BOATS AND PLANES

It's a given, almost every RV park has a train nearby.  This is especially true in Oregon.  After a night or two, you kind of get used to the train whistles and you can sleep through the noise. This RV park is special, not only do we we have trains, we are under the airport and within walking distance to the Columbia River and the barges.

Kathe picked this "Resort" because it had a very high rating with Good Sam.  It's rated 10-10-9.5. I've always suspected that Good Sam takes bribes, now we have proof.  Our site is long, with a tiny patch of dead grass, and our picnic table is practically out in the street. Plus, when you look at layout of the resort online it looks like it's right on the River, but that is just blue paint on the picture around the map. The River is 3 blocks away through a mobile home park.  False advertising!

Despite all this I'm happy to be here and have another new place to explore. Kathe and Jim took me for a walk down to the river right after lunch.  There is a very nice paved walking path which I enjoyed sniffing my way along.

Traffic here is worse than Los Angeles and the smoke is really bad.  I'm glad we are only here two nights.
