Spent the next three days wrapped snuggly in blankets, watching movies and eating popcorn while resting and listening to the rains shower down over our box on wheels. We were wedged between a few other RV’s at the Burien Elks Lodge RV Parking lot until they moved out in search of sun. Our only ventures out were to a breakfast café the second morning, Red Box for more movies and to dine, our final night, at Bizzarro, one of Guy’s Diners Drive-in’s and Dives in Seattle.
Massively eclectic interior, snug seating, although we had the Best Table InThe House, so the plaque hanging on the pole claimed. We did have the largest personal space in the restaurant. Our food was amazing, confirming once again that Guy is spot-on with his reviews.
Plans were to use our next dual days of travel to rest, relax and recuperate sufficiently before our volunteer work position begins. One overnight, Yakima River RV Park in Ellensburg, WA was another sleep deprivation. Beautiful views of the surrounding mountains, a herd of cows, a few horses
and the dreaded train whistling through every few hours just across the slice of meadow. After we arrived, it blew loudly through our quiet at least three times before bedtime, then once around midnight and again at 4:14 am. Looking at the photo, the scenic view is alluring, until you arrive and that darn Iron Horse comes stampeding though and tramples your quiet.
Onward and upward, mountains beginning to show white caps draping the peaks and sprinkling down settling under the trees, beautiful views, relaxing drive.
We arrive at our first work camp position of the 2014 season on April 1st
