Gary decided he felt good enough to drive the RV, so we left Mom's this morning about 11 a.m. and ended up in Salem, OR tonight.
It was really cold as we left Mom's--note the ice on the puddle. Her pond/fountain was frozen solid.
As we drove thru Seattle, the sun was shining, the Cascades were showing, but no snow was visible. I noticed that Rosie made it into my Seattle skyline photo attempt--check out the mirror.
The Space Needle brings back memories of the 1962 World's Fair in Seattle. We always need to say goodbye as we pass by.
As we headed south, it got colder and colder. By Olympia it was overcast. By Vancouver it was an ice storm--sleet instead of snow. By Portland we saw snow on cars and on the roadside. Elsie was so cold, she required a blanket. I forgot her red sweater. She hugged the heater whenever it came on.
We got to Salem where it is cold--about 32 degrees. It was raining when I took the dogs for their walk, but it has stopped raining and is just plain cold. We're loving it!
So far Gary says he feels fine--unless he coughs or sneezes.
