Here we are back at the Cowlitz and that means fishing again. Ron went out with Keith today and they had a good time with 3 fish in the boat. Ron is cleaning this one and getting it ready to vacuum pack and put in the freezer.
Lots of bunnies around on this trip and they didn't seem to be afraid of us. This one hung around for quite awhile and wasn't even concerned when I went into the motorhome to get my camera so I could take some pictures.
We tried a new recipe for dinner tonight. It's called "Tacos in a Bag." You cut the top, or better yet side, off a Doritos bag then fill it with Tacos fixings - meat, cheese, lettuce, tomatoes, sour cream and salsa. Mix it up a little with your fork and enjoy. When finished just throw the bag away and the dishes are done. This is great for camping!
Skeet and Jan are enjoying their "Taco in a Bag".
We needed to get some things at the hardware store, so decided to do a little site seeing along the way. This is a very overgrown house near Vader. In it's day this was probably a darling house. Now most people probably don't even notice it. We, on the other hand, thought it was a perfect opportunity for a picture.
The hardware store we go to is an Ace hardware in Winlock. I think I mentioned it before, but if not, it is a great old store. They have everything and the employees are so nice. As you come in they offer you coffee or popcorn and then ask how they can help you. It's Ron's new favorite hardware store. Now about this egg. Winlock was an egg and poultry production area. With the Northern Pacific Railroad running right through town they were able to export their product across the nation. The first egg was built for a float in 1923. It has since been replaced with a more durable model. The "Ripley's Believe it or Not" says this is the largest egg in the world. It's on a list of things to see and do in Washington.
Back home in Toledo there are some interesting murals on the wall in town. These are by the grocery store, so while I went shopping Ron took some pictures for me.
