Tuesday
I met a nice fellow named Mark in the hot tub last night. He lives in Phoenix but spends most of the summer in Post Falls at this place. He loves the RV park ($375.00/month)and says it is the best kept secret around! He is an independent contractor and is doing heavy duty aircraft maintenance on UPS planes nearby. His wife is an airline mechanic in Phoenix.. He came over after supper and had many interesting stories to tell. He has promised to send us some special oyster shooters??
Alan took the bike for a long ride today and we tested our walkie-talkies for range. They’re pretty good!
Wednesday
Left Post Falls around 11:00am headed towards Spokane. We wanted to see Riverside Park which we hear about all the time on PBS (Friends of Seven). There was no place for a motorhome to park anywhere nearby so I asked a fellow on a riding lawnmower for directions. He said “follow me” and led us down a side road to the Gonzaga University Parking Authority where we purchased an all day pass for $2.17! Our new friend, Brian, then led us to the perfect parking spot fifty feet from the Centennial Trail in the park. We rode our bikes right into the centre of Spokane. The trail passes through beautiful gardens, sculptures and major attractions such as a carousel and gondola over the Spokane river falls . This is also the site of the Annual Bloomsday Race. Spokane turns out in huge numbers for this event.
We went shopping at River Park Square and stopped for coffee and fabulous fries with blue cheese dressing at the Sawback Grill. We spent about five hours looking around before we returned to Kingsley and set out again. We drove 45 miles north to Deer Park and the Spokane RV Resort http://www.spokanervresort.com/
Thursday
This is a wonderful spot on the edge of a golf course. The air is so fresh! Alan hit a bucket of balls and we checked out some good real estate opportunities in the area. On the road again and we headed north on #395 and west on WA #20 to #97 to the border and Osoyoos, BC. So, tonight we are at Nk'nip RV Resort where we were last here five years ago with our newly acquired Kingsley. A tiring day for Alan on the windy road rising to 5500 miles above sea level....lots of up and downs and turns on the road to the border.
