Very short driving day today. Only 150 miles. We have arrived at our rendezvous point of Coeur d’Alene, ID. All I can say is we have never been to a gated RV park. Had to sign a THREE page document which stated all the rules and disclaimers. No tents or campfires 🔥 here. Does anyone remember the song from the Jeffersons – Moving On Up To The East Side? That’s us! They messed up our reservation. We were supposed to have a pull thru. So we had to take the truck and the motorcycle off before getting into our spot. Annoying. This place is all brick and mortar. And certainly not the family owned type of place we are used to. Had a lot of errands to do today. Found a GMC dealer. Have an appointment for Tuesday at 7:30 am to fix a broken turn signal. Found a place to store the motorcycle for 2 months. ☹️ No riding for awhile. Found a car wash and cleaned up the truck. Tried to get an appointment to have the dogs groomed. Petco can do Layla in September (not a typo). She would look like a woolly mammoth at that point. Going to google and see what I can find on Monday. Fingers crossed. Also tried to book a dinner cruise. Hah – not a chance. I had no idea what a hot spot Coeur d’Alene was. Apparently quite the tourist town. Everything has to be booked months in advance. Met the wagon master and the tail gunners of our trip. There was a meet and great with a few of our fellow travelers. So far they all seem very pleasant.
