Sometimes, life is just too good!

Wonder of wonders, we are out in the woods and still have enough connectivity to blog! After our last trip, we had to take Blue Suede to the dealer for repair of a split board that supports the fresh water tank. I would have done it myself, but since the trailer is under warranty, I was afraid my doing so would lead to voiding the warranty. That knocked 3 weeks out of our camping season.

So, it has been seven (count em' 7) weeks since we last camped.  In the interim, I spent a month nursing a sore back (this year's episode), but now I am back in the pink.  Yesterday, we left home after church and drove about 60 miles to River Bend County Park, in Linn County, near Sweet Home.

This park is a perennial favorite, and perhaps, some photos will explain why:





 

We need to look up these berries and identify them. There are lots of them here. 
I suspect they are not edible, or someone else would have picked them by now.

The weather for the next day or two is expected to be unseasonably warm; 88 degrees today, for example! We intend to do more hiking, more reading, more relaxing and eat the cinnamon rolls that Jill is currently baking in the modified pressure cooker. 

SOMETIMES, LIFE IS JUST TOO GOOD!
