Trip to Olympia

 

8-10-2020 Monday morning we made our weekly trip down to Fred Meyer to pickup our grocery order.  On the way home there was a wreck by Lions Pride Park that had part of the road blocked so I turned into the park to watch for a few minutes.  I took this picture while Vera walked down toward the accident.

It turned out the dark colored pickup had pulled out in front of the dump truck.  The pickup didn't look good but I couldn't see a scratch on the dump truck from where I took the picture.  This afternoon I finished waxing the front of the motor home and it turned out great.

8-11-2020 We went flying today, there were just 4 sets of flyers this time.  The yellow plane in the forward compartment hasn't been flown for a while because I broke the prop and didn't have a spare.  The props showed up the other day so I got it out today and flew it a couple of times then I put it in the shade of the awning.  A dust devil came through later and was blowing everything around, the plane got blown backwards clear out by the table but wasn't damaged.

The front turned out so nice that I set the scaffolding up to do the back after we got home from flying.

I went to Olympia today for a visit with Barry.  I made a stop at Costco, then Home Depot and the hobby shop first because I knew he had an early service appointment scheduled for the Jeep.  This scooter they have sitting on the coffee table is really cute.

Barry took me to the Firecreek Grill for lunch.  It was sure pleasant out on the patio with a view of the golf course.  The food is great and very generous servings because we both took enough home to have dinner with.

I had a really nice time visiting with Barry today and seeing what they have done with their house.

They have put their house on the market and it has been shown several times.  There was a showing today at four so I headed out shortly after lunch.  I took the slow way home until I hit Dairy Queen for a blizzard then I hurried home so I could have some of it.
