Good morning Oregon and everyone everywhere else. No sun here. Overcast, but at least it is dry for now.

Double whammy today. For some it is that dreaded Monday. (Saturday #1 for the rest of us)
Then, just to add a cruel joke on top of that...t is also Tax Day for the procrastinators.

The place you were going to stay wouldn't happen to be Tumalo? I think they are booked up through the end of the Century.
The Deschutes County Fair Grounds between Bend and Redmond has RV sites. Not sure what they charge.
Last year when we were trying to plan out our trip home from the GTG the first part of June, the only place we could find to stay anywhere near there was at Paulina Lake, which is a bit of a commute to Bend.

Not even trying to plan anything out for this year. When we leave the G2G we are just going to 'wing it' and fly by the seat of our pants.
Speaking of G2G, are you going to try and make it?

You probably already know this, but they do have the Newbery Volcano Center, The Lava Tube cave, Hornady in the Bend area.
the interesting thing about bend is there isn't much in the way of rv parks in bend itself. We were going to stay at Sundance meadows but there was no way to get the paperwork done in time. It's a private rv park where you have to be a deeded owner. We are being gifted a deed from a family member who no longer needs it. Guess we"lol be back a few more times this summer.

Wife had a tummy bug on Thursday and now I have it. Not the vacation weekend we had planned.

Not sure if we can make the GTG. There seems to be a lot going on at that time.

to make things fun we got hammered on taxes like a lot of folks. Claiming Married 0 on your W4 is not near enough anymore. I'll just leave it at that.

Good evening Oregon and everyone everywhere else. No more than got started on Operation Camper Cleanout and the rains started. Put out the over door canopy and set up a 1X10 dining canopy to keep us a little on the dry side. I cannot believe how much stuff the warrden has crammed in there. I did find some tools I've been wondering about all winter.

I've heard about Sundance Meadows, but don't know a lot about it. Is that like a Thousand Trails or is it more like a Time Share. My sister is in one of those and has a hard time getting reservations....

There is another one over there someplace that my sister and BIL go to, but it seems like a PIA as they have to make reservation 8 to 10 months in advance. I don't know how much they paid for that, but it was a bunch.
