Today’s two-fer

Posted on October 14, 2024

Pics from the lovely Allegheny National Forest plus plans for ’25

Shunpiking in the lovely Allegheny National Forest on a Golden afternoon.

The road to our camp site at Willow Bay Campground with our home-on-wheels at the bottom of the hill.

Michele and I will forego a summer surrounded by this forest. Instead, we’ll spend next summer beside the Columbia River in Central Washington. With an assistant, we’re to manage two small campgrounds — 17 sites and 21 sites — for the small city of Bridgeport.

Many of our friends believe Washington to be a rain forest; the Cascade mountains and western Washington are, in fact, wet and lush. Central Washington, on the other hand, is a desert with dry (and often hot) summers.

Bridgeport’s RV parks cater to a diverse group of travelers… travelers who likely spend part of each day thinking about salmon fishing.

We’ve loved our corner of NW Pennsylvania and made quite a number of friends. We will miss them.

But the road beckons.

    Your Allegheny pictures are really beautiful. I know it will be hard to leave the scenery and your new friends behind.

    I lived in Umatilla OR for 6 months in about 1984. It is on the Columbia.

      I’ve ridden through there, Dave. Cows, sheep and salmon. Vineyards now, too, I think.
