Back in Chehalis

We left Yelm and came back to our leased campsite in Chehalis.  We needed to get a few things out of our storage unit in Chehalis - warmer clothes, Seahawk jerseys and sweatshirts, fall decorations, etc.  We also thought if we were in camp, we could keep Lexie very contained so she could hopefully get better - she's doing OK, but still limping.

We went down to Salem last week for a funeral - my first boss at State Farm in Sept. 1974.  It was great to see everyone there, some I had not seen since moving to Puyallup in 1998.  We then bought Craig a "new toy" and visited a dear friend.

We had one good weather day since being here and we spent that day setting up Craig's new Barbecue.    He would like to start smoking and cooking meats with this new pellet stove, and this unit can also serve as a convection oven since our's in the coach can be a little small - baking cakes, pizza, cookies, etc.  I'm sure I'll be learning to make meat rubs and sauces for "his" new hobby:)

We had quite a wind storm yesterday with lots of rain - didn't seem to mind too much since it was a great day for football - Seahawks are now 4 and 0 - with the fantastic win in Houston.  Can't wait to go to our game in Seattle against the Titans.  We had to use the generator last night as we lost power a couple of times, but the generator gives us everything we need; lights, heat and TV.

We are looking forward to mid-January when we plan on heading for warmer and dryer weather.
