Day 1 Friday Jan 13
We had the RV in front of home this year and could flush water tanks & have the RV plugged in to maintain heat. We got away by 11:00 @ 146779 km. Got to Pac Hwy by 11:55, cleared, no problems by 12:20. A 5 minute rest area stop, then lots of traffic through the Seattle, Tacoma, Olympia corridor and arrived at the Elks Lodge in Keslo by 5:15 @ 147193. They have 30 amp power, water & cable vision with a dump station area, all for $15.00 – a donation to the Elks, so no tax. Sheila had phoned earlier & found out that it was Crab Dinner night, so in we went. Sheila had the crab-- two large crabs, which she figures yielded at least 6 oz, (probably closer to 8 oz of crabmeat). I opted for the chicken, (a large and delicious boneless breast), just because crab is so much of a nuisance to get the meat out, much as I love crab. The dinner also included a delicious potato salad, coleslaw, baked beans, hot garlic bread and coffee—all for $20. Not cheap, but well worth it for all that fresh crab. One plate & I was full! They also had entertainment/dancing in the lounge and cheap drinks, (Sheila’s cocktail was $3.75), however, since I was very tired after a day of driving, I did not want to stay so we returned to the RV to do journal, expenses etc. The weather was some cloud but no rain until suppertime when it sprinkled. It was cool in the evening but not too bad.
Distance covered – 414 km – 257 miles
