Casey's Not at the Bat, He's at the River!

Casey's Riverside RV Park in Westfir, Oregon, has to be the most beautiful park we have ever planted ourselves in! Fifty-six full hookup sites, more than half of them (including ours) facing right onto the Willamette River. This is our site ...

And this is the view from our site!

What you see there is the North Fork of the Middle Fork of the Willamette River merging into the Middle Fork of the Willamette. The river junction makes lovely music that we rejoice in.

Every site has a lawn, most have flower planters or flowering shrubs lovingly cared for by the owners of the park. There is a club house with large screen TV and a pool table, a swimming pool, AND ... tada! ... a pavilion for gatherings. In that pavilion is a soft-serve ice cream machine! You can serve yourself a small bowl or cone of vanilla ice cream, and then put $1 in the honor system coffee can. Tasty!

Russ and Donna (of Travels in Therapy) recommended this park, and we certainly thank them for it. They've also outlined several side trips for us to take, but we are so delighted to be here that we hate to go away! We like to sit in this swing and watch the river roll by.

Sometimes we watch rafts, kayaks, or fishing boats roll by.

We arrived on a bright sunny day, and have had some of those since. But this is Oregon and this is still springtime on the calendar, so we've also had some pretty rainy days, but that leaves us with this:

Still beautiful! You can see more pictures of Casey's at our website Casey's in Westfir).

We had a real treat a couple of days ago -- we met a fellow blogger, Loree of Life with Luci and Loree! She came all the way from Redmond, a four-hour drive, just so we could meet and share a meal. Loree and Suzy went through bariatric surgery at about the same time. Between the two of them they have lost over 360 pounds! Don't they both look great?

Of course, Luci came along too.

All too soon Luci and Loree had to be on their way, leaving us with the rosy glow of a new friendship. We'll catch up with them again as we move around this State of Oregon.

Looks like tomorrow we'll meet up with Donna and Russ for a little sightseeing. They are madly in love with their home state, and will eagerly show it to anyone who wants to see it. We'll report on that later in ... Our Life on Wheels.
