Not much happened here on Monday. We decided to have a laid back day, so we read, napped, puttered a little with airplanes and for the most part did not accomplish anything.
Tuesday we planned on going up and seeing Marie first thing after my exercises. Vera noticed two bunnies eating out in the lawn before we left. We got in the Blazer and started down the driveway, but there were strange noises coming from the front end. After doing a little checking we decided to take the van. Good idea except the battery was dead, a door was not closed all the way and the interior lights had ran it down. Plan "B" take the motor home worked! We took the slow way up via Jackson Hwy. and had a nice relaxed trip up. Marie was doing much better, but tired from physical therapy and occupational therapy. We had lunch at the hospital while she was having occupational therapy and then visited for a while before heading home to work on vehicles. We took the slow way home through Napavine, Winlock and Vader and had a nice time. The extra half hour it takes is well worth it for the things you get to see. We came around a corner and saw this long white line in a field. Turns out they are the round hay bales wrapped in plastic lined up along the edge of the field.
A little further on between Napavine and Winlock I took a picture of a classic shaped barn and silo, one of several we saw.
After we got home, I put the battery charger on the van and it charged up OK. I changed the oil and filter on the motor home. We went for a ride over Headquarters road to check it out after the oil change. We saw 5 deer in a yard, all within 20 feet of a lady standing there, she must feed them. After our ride I moved the Blazer into the carport and found it was the right front drive shaft making the weird noise. I had a club meeting that evening, so I stopped and picked up a drive shaft to put in on Wednesday.
