soakin' up the sun!

It certainly was a fabulous day! Crazy. We woke up to -3C yesterday and today we were seeking out the shade as it was 28C (or as our American friends would say 82F)! Wow! We put away our electric heater and considered using the air conditioning in our 5th wheel, but we opted for just the fan to keep cool.

Well, it turned out that the radiator wasn't the problem with the truck overheating. As we went for groceries today, it overheated once again. Off to the Dodge dealership and after a 2 hr. sit, and a new thermostat, we are back in business! We are so glad to have it fixed and thankful that we weren't left stranded in the middle of nowhere!

We had our bikes on the back of the truck and went for a long ride on the bike path along the Snake River. Beautiful. What a great view.  The path is newly paved with no inclines and there was not a breath of wind. I don't think I mentioned in my earlier email that Lewiston (Idaho) and our campground actually runs along the river and directly on the other side of the river is Clarkston (Washington). They have a bike path along the river also. We will drive over the bridge tomorrow and check out that community.

We had our own campfire this evening. Wyley, our next door neighbour invited us over again, but we decided to have our own fire. His lady friend is there tonight. We laugh at his name. It reminds us of the days when Grandson, Ryley couldn't say his "r's" and was "Wyley".

That's it for today's update. Time for bed.
