Day 25 – Redmond OR

It was a lovely down day for me. I slept until almost 10! Bill was up early and went to a seminar sponsored by Coachnet, a new road assistance he had signed up for. I think he also went for the coffee and donuts. Then he wandered around the vendors and got some free stuff and made a few purchases. He bought a table top that fits over the steering wheel. That should be interesting. He also bought 3 pads that stick to the dash and hold cell phones, etc. For freebies, he picked up a chip clip, a first aid kit (with bandaids only!), and a strange looking pizza cutter.

He went back over for lunch and more browsing. I stayed here and worked on photos. I finally have them all processed and uploaded a sampling to Flickr. That feels good to be caught up before we head to Crater Lake and Klamath Falls tomorrow. The link to my photos is on the right. Today's photo is an aerial view of the FMC rally. We are parked in the group of RV's just north of the circular arena/expo area.

We did go out this afternoon to Walmart to stock up on groceries and water. I saw a new item in the checkout lane….coconut M&Ms. The lady in front of me had gotten some, and we talked about how strange they were. I got a small pack, and they are different. They only have green, brown, and white M&Ms, and they aren’t bad, but you couldn’t eat a lot of them at one sitting.

For dinner we went to Madaline’s Mexican Gill. It was really packed, but we were seated when we walked in. I got a $10 plate with chile relleno and a chimichanga. The relleno’s breading left a bit to be desired, but the chile was spicy and good. The pork chimichanga was quite good. Bill went a bit more upscale and got garlic rock shrimp which he enjoyed.

RVs are slowly starting to trickle out before tomorrow’s mass exodus. They turn the power off at 9, and we have to be off the premises by noon. Bill thinks we will leave about 9:30, heading to Klamath Falls AFB and their famcamp. They only have 5 sites at the AFB and don’t take reservations, so luckily Bill has some alternatives. Should be interesting.
