Portland Fairview RV Resort impressed us with it’s multi-level campground and wide paved streets bordered by green grassy garden walks. Masses of flowers including rows of pink roses in full bloom lined the walkways down the little hill from our rig to the duck pond. We enjoyed a very pleasant stay and took our time leaving this morning as our drive to Long Beach, Washington today measures only about 100 miles.
Since we’ve got some time, we decided to visit Starbase Deepspace Blue Beacon Starship Wash. We need to get all the space dust removed from our thrusters, so we hope it will be worth waiting in this two-hour lineup of space freighters. We’re passing the time watching the birds in a huge eagle’s nest perched high atop a light post in the parking lot here.
We’re anxious to get a couple days of R&R at Andersens on the Ocean, our favorite Long Beach Starbase. It’s a short walk through the dunes to the ocean from the back of the park. While Frank isn’t an ocean-loving First Officer, he actually looks forward to our visits to Long Beach. It’s a pretty little town, not quaint but it’s got character, and they don’t gouge. For instance, if you want to park or drive on the beach or even park near the beach, they don’t charge their beloved tourists. This low-key ocean experience is always the height of laid-back. I can hardly wait to get sand in my shoes!
Pictures will follow later today.
