It was moving day today so we rustled up all our bird feeders, whirly flags, folding chairs and utility umbilicals and prepared to leave the property. Before we could go anywhere else, we made a stop at the three-holer dump station at the campground exit. We have been very frugal with our water this week to avoid filling our modestly-sized waste tanks. Normally, waste gets dumped every four days but we made the week. It took quite a while for everything to leave us.

After this fun, we pulled out onto Snee Oosh Road and headed north to WA-20. Turning east there, we got as far as I-5 where we turned north. Just a few miles up the road, we arrived at Bow. The Thousand Trails Campground is called Mount Vernon but it’s not in Mount Vernon. It’s in Bow.

We found a nice, spacious spot with satellite TV reception, good access and plenty of birds in the surrounding brush. We set up and called it a day even though our entire trip was about 20 miles and maybe 25 minutes. We love nice, quick drives between campgrounds.
