So sorry for the break, it was totally unintentional.
Time just got away from me once again.
Since that last time I posted we have had some changes.
As you may or may not know, we are campground hosts for a state park
in Washington state. And we are loving it.
This gig was suppose to last us one month.
Well they must like us because they asked us to stay another
two months.. OK.. Maybe its not because they like us that much.
The other hosts did not show up. So they asked us to stay.
We may be a bit crazy but we said yes.
The problem is that we are going to miss the holidays
with our families and friends.
Insert SAD face here.
When you wake up and you see an orange glow coming through the
bedroom window, you know it has to be a beautiful sunrise.
I probably look like a crazy lady running down to the beach with
my camera and my slippers on to grab this shot.
Yes I did have my clothes on.. I'm not that crazy.
On one of our days off we took the drive out to the most outer point of
north west called Neah Bay. It was a beautiful hike. The views did not disappoint.
They had placed planks and logs along the path, which made
this a pretty easy hike.
In some areas you would be hiking in water if the planks weren't there.
We picked a sunny day for this hike which we were glad for that,
but it was still a chilly day, my favorite way to hike.
You end up a the ocean with a gorgeous view..
I had a hard time capturing this wonderful view. The sun was
in the wrong place to capture a great shot.
Back at the campground we put our feeder
up and we had lots of takers.. We have already had to refill it.
I leave you with another shot of that gorgeous sunrise..
We will be right here at the campground for Thanksgiving.
We will cook our Turkey outside in the Dutch Oven.
And cook all the fix'ens right here in Big Bertha (Our Trailer)
We were told the campground is going to be completely full.
That means 80 Happy campers to visit with.
Life is Good.
Thanks so much for stopping by and I am trying to
get around to visiting all of you but I am a bit behind.
But I will be by soon. I promise.
Wishing all my friends in the states a
Happy Thanksgiving.
Hugs~

Hey Linda, firstly thank you for your congrats. I am very happy :). Your new (temporary ) address looks like a beautiful part of the world. I love that you just seem to be so free and easy with your gypsy life and can go or stay depending on how you feel...such freedom. Absolutely beautiful photos as always, even the one you weren't happy with. I hope you have a wonderful Thanksgiving with your "new found friends" and Christmas is not that far away, so I guess you will be catching up with family then. Safe travels and happy holidays. xx
Holy cow - I would stay even longer with those views and hiking options. Absolutely stunning photos.
Definitely bittersweet, but wonderful too!
Congratulations on the extension. Think I would have stayed too. :-)
I wish you a beautiful Thanksgiving! xo.
I think I would have said yes in a second just to keep seeing those gorgeous sunrises! Wow! Your photos are truly breathtaking. Hope you enjoy your Thanksgiving!

What a magnificent spot to say "Yes" to staying longer. Your fifth photo is like a another world, just gorgeous and mystical. Beautiful scenes all round....
wow,,,I think if I woke up and didn't know who I was I'd say....oh I am Linda and am supposed to be at the campground...I mean who would you be if you didn't know who you are....kind of like that stamp...how old would you be if you didn't know how old you are. These fotos are really fabulous! The one with the cliffs and trees gave me the goooosebumps. What a place. No wonder you said YES...I would too:) Have a happy and fun TG tomorrow.
WOW its gorgeous there!! I would have said yes too :-). To bad the kids can't come to you :-( I think I would be perfectly happy to stay there it looks so gorgeous!!! Happy Thanksgiving to you sweet freind!
I'm sure you will be lovin' every minute of your extended stay. And look at the views - wOOw! The shot of the sun rise is just stunning!!! Take care my friend and happy Thanksgiving!
Wow Linda! What gorgeous photos! Thanks for sharing! What an amazing world we live in! Congrats on your exciting news! Happy Thanksgiving to you and your loved ones :)
Fabulous pics Linda, what a blessing to be able to live your dream and see the most amazing places! So fun to be able to travel along with you to all these places! Glad you get to stay for a few more months, lots more exploring to do. Have a blessed day tomorrow my friend :)
Hi, Linda! Fabulous photos! What a beautiful place. Did you change email addresses? I sent an email to you, but it came back. If you get a chance, email me. Have a wonderful Thanksgiving!
Wow, what a beautiful place... That hike must have been so wonderful. So sorry to hear you can't celebrate with your loved ones. Happy Thanksgiving nevertheless! Hugs
Oh... does it mean that we are not going to see you here? (insert sad face here too : (
Oh well, I am glad that you both are happy where you are, and glad that you share the beauties around you with us. Happy Thanksgiving my friend!
I just love reading about your adventures and seeing your photos, I think you shuld end your posts though with "Wish you were here?" to which I would answer,"sure do!"
I am trying to figure out where you are. I was born in Taholah, on an Indian reservation there in that area. I remember hearing the name Neah Bay quite often, so you must not be too far from where I lived and was born. We lived in Queets, near Quinalt for several years.
Your photos are breathtaking! I know why you love it there, it is the most beautiful place on the face of the Earth, I think!
Happy Thanksgiving to you!!!
Hugs, Cindy
I can see why you'd want to spend more time here. Beautiful photos! I especially like the one where you talk about taking a hike on a sunny day. Gorgeous view! I hope your special Thanksgiving dinner was fabulous and that you had an awesome day. Hugs!
Hello there lovely Linda :) Can I say...really, this is THE MOST BEAUTIFUL SUNRISE PIC I have ever seen...omg...stunning. I hope you are going to frame that. Wish I was there and I am so happy for you and the hub. Happy Thanksgiving sweetheart!
Oh, be still me heart - That path!! Those views!! If I could stay at a place like that for another two months, I would too!
I hope your Thanksgiving was wonderful, Linda!
And even with the change of plans, I'm sure the rest of your holidays will be too. ♥
Wowsa...lovely stunning views...I would stay on for a couple more months too!!!...It sounds like you are having amazing time being a Happy Camper...love following along on your adventures with you Linda x x
