Everett, WA - Maple Grove RV Resort

It rains constantly around here!!!!

We did manage to go to North Cascades National Park. It is one of the least developed parks, with a lot of wilderness. Some hiking trails you have to make yourself. The ranger suggested a route around the southern end of the park, ending in one of the last glacial ice holdouts, but warned us about a primitive road. When a ranger warns you about a "primative" road, be warned! You and your vehicle will be shaken within an inch of your lives by washboarding, hairpin turns, and steep grades!!!!!! At the end though was a beautiful view:

Steve went to the Husker/Huskie game on Saturday. He found a ride by flying his Husker flag from the RV roof, and another fan showed up. She was being driven to the game by her husband, and Steve was invited along. Great game (56 to 21, Huskers). Small world update: The husband of this fan was a retired NE National Guardsman who knew Cathy's mother!

One day we took the Boeing tour, which is a must see in Everett. What big planes. As it was a Sunday, we didn't get to see the workers in action, but it was still worth the price of admission!

We also met a former phone coworker of Steve's, and her husband and son. Had a wonderful buffet and talk at one of the local casinos.
