Spending a few days at Crystal Creek RV Park just outside of Seaside, OR. Finally, a park with enough open space for picnic tables and a fire ring!!!

I pulled up in the toad and as I stopped I heard the long blast of a diesel air horn. My dog discovered it can blast the horn vs. bark. Great...

Best,
-Mark

@No Plan That Bonnie is a thing of beauty.
 
Stayed in Stanfield, OR. on our way to Blanchard, ID. This was a Pilot Gas Station with an RV park. It was actually very nice and with the a/c units running we couldn’t hear any of the trucks near us. View attachment 28859
If you do not mind me asking, how much does it cost daily to stay there? Looks nice.
 
TransWest RV Campground Frederick, Colorado

I left Fruita, Colorado this morning and drove down to the Front Range. I'm spending the night in the campground at my home dealer TransWest. There is 50/30 AMP service in the campground but no water/sewer. They do have a dump station and water if needed. Tomorrow morning I am off to the Bonneville Salt Flats!!!

The Regatta on Grand in Grove, OK. Right on the shore of Grand Lake of the Cherokees very near sailboat bridge.
Sewer connection was uphill and awkwardly placed which made dumping a challenge. There is new ownership at this park and things are obviously in transition. Many little maintenance things, like cleaning cobwebs from the patios are lacking and could be better. Each site comes with a propane grill, covered patio, and furniture. The furniture could use some updating and really basic cleaning would go a long ways.

There are two on site restaurants, both with very good food and atmosphere. You can call and order your food delivered to your site also. Margarita cart comes by at 5 ish every day with complimentary drinks for each site. Several Casinos within an hour drive, one within 5 minutes. Jet ski and boat rental right next door at Water Trix, the resort has a "concierge" service that will help you set it up and you'll get a 10% discount.

They are trying to be upscale, but have a ways to go. They have the right attitude, wonderful staff all the way from top to bottom, and in time, I think they will get there and justify the price. Right now, it feels just a bit too expensive for what you get...but it's close. We'll likely go back and see.

Dry Camping At The Salt Flats

Arrived on the flats Friday and it's has been a busy couple of days. I've been out on the flats with our team racing motorcycles... Long days starting around 6:30 AM and getting back around 5:00 PM. Some of our motorcycles have set new records. Unfortunately the motorcycle I'm Crew Chief on has been having some Gremlin issues. We are trying to get things sorted out and we well be back out on the course early tomorrow morning.
 
Currently heading north from San Diego to Seattle. Stopped at Lazy Horse RV Park which is on the Klamouth River near the CA/OR border. Lots of wild horses and the beautiful sound of water flowing downstream.

At the Mothership.

It is completely full and one coach had to stay across the street in the parking lot last night.

Newmar Academy starts tomorrow so today is wash the coach day.

Pics to follow after I get her cleaned up.

Will be doing a thread specifically on the academy with thoughts etc through the week.
 
@Deer Springs RV Park site #9.

This is their newest site, and it’s a winner. If you are looking for privacy and seclusion, it doesn’t get any better than this. It’s literally like boondocking with full hook ups.

The main part of the CG is a short walk away, and of course, the owners are without peer. Although the weather left much to be desired, it was a great three-night stay for the Neemers.

@No Plan, I probably have a stupid question, but I couldn't help but notice how rough the surface was when I drove on it. Is that the surface you race on, or is it smoothed somehow?
