Interesting drive today. We passed miles and miles of pear orchards just ripe for the picking. Of course at 60 miles per hour my pictures are a blur. We know that all those pears are ready to be picked because there were large wooden boxes set out by the orchards waiting to be filled. Once we passed the city of Wenatchee we drove north all along Lake Entiat, a 17 mile long reservoir. Lots of water skiers on that smooth water.
Finding our destination, Summerhill Farm RV Park was really difficult. We drove past the city of Chelan, past the Lake, and up, up, up to the top of steep hill before we finally found the place. We were thinking that we would be camped by a Lake, but instead we are camped on a farm.
It’s not what we expected but it’s really pretty special. It’s a working farm and we have full hookups facing a field of raspberries and the apple orchards. There are several tent sites in between the rows of apple trees where families have set up camp, but our sites are more traditional. There’s a farm store where we can purchase all kinds of fruits and vegetables on the honor system.
It was super warm today when I went to visit the billy goats, but now it’s cool and so quiet. Since we are so far away from the city tonight the stars amazing!
