And Still in Chehalis!

This is the fountain in front of a bank on the corner where we drive into the Holiday Inn Express where we have been staying:




I think that the idea is that if they shut the water off at this point, everything will freeze up and break, so they're letting it run!


When we talked with Uhlman RV earlier this morning, it sounded like things were moving along pretty good. They should be finished early in the afternoon and we could be on our way. We went ahead and checked out of Room 402 that has been our home for the past couple of days and headed over there after lunch.


At that point, it didn't look as good. The part for the refrigerator had come in, but they had to completely defrost and thaw the freezer in order to install it. And that was not going very fast. Also Clayton was concerned that the sealant he had put on the roof around the new Winegard TV antenna wasn't quite cured. So reluctantly, we decided that we'd stay over another day. That way they could finish the two jobs without feeling rushed.


We are now resettled back at the Holiday Inn Express in Room 300. The bad thing about it is that we are missing GD Havela's Choir Concert tonight in Canby...


This is the view the people of Chehalis have of Mount St. Helens:





We will hopefully get an early start south in the morning....
