Another night at Rock Creek

A Torque Converter. That is our issue with the truck. Or at least that is what they 'think' it is. About a $1,000. fix which is better than another entire transmission, but still . . . 

We are also a bit stressed because this campsite is reserved for tonight. Someone else will have to move us.  And we continue to await the phone call from Trail re our truck.  Did I mention that it is a 2 hr drive there and back?

Ron arrived back at the campsite late afternoon in a loaner car.

but will it pull our 5th wheel???

About this campground and our stay.  At least we weren't stranded on some highway pull off, but this campground is right beside the highway. Noise. All night long. We have a pine tree just a few feet from our door which we sit under for shade (see below). There was blackbird nest at eye level and we were scolded non-stop as we sat there. Man blackbirds are annoying!!  Anyway, one destroyed nest and we are rid of THAT noise!!

mosquito killer and blackbird nest destroyer!

One last thing while I'm in my bitchy complaining mode.  The mosquitoes are horrible right now.  We are surrounded by coils and well sprayed with repellents.  Yes, I will be very happy to be moving on!!

Some of the nicer birds that we enjoyed - Evening Grossbeak

The one thing we can't complain about is that everyone has been wonderful and extremely helpful to us.  From the campground managers to the mechanics. And for that, we are very thankful!
