Little did we know that Ruth had planned a surprise trip from Phoenix....yes we were truly surprised when Ruth arrived with Bea.
It is the day before flying out of Canada and the day to install our new winter cover. A rather taunting task at first and probably not possible if there was a wind blowing. The cover will protect Dutchess from rain and snow. After the cover was installed, many ties were adjusted to hopefully keep it all in place over the winter. Anita and John were both on hand to give us some very welcome assistance.
After spending a very pleasant dinner and evening with Tony and Ruth we joined them at an Art Show on Sunday before heading on to Vernon.
After crossing into Washington State, we picked up our new winter cover at Camping World. Overnight in a Casino parking lot, then on to Highway 20 heading East over the Cascades Mountain Range.

A great evening was spent with Deb & Mike, and Amanda & Steve, with many stories being told, both current and from the distant past!
Our RV Park has a very socialable atmosphere and it is common to see friends and neighbours gathering for a drink and nibbles before the sun sets. At this time we were visiting with Agnes, Ann and Ron.
