Friday - July 3

Woke up to bright sunshine and a high of 75 - love it!!!    We had breakfast, exercised and then gradually got our stuff together for departure around 9:30.    We really enjoyed our time in Spokane and impressed with all we saw,  but time to move on.  A nice short day of just 77 miles west on Route 2.    It was one of those "On a clear day, you can see forever"....as the flatlands were all around us - but way way back in the distance, some mountains.    We passed fields of wheat, canola and a lot of scrub brush.

Stopped in Davenport for coffees (never a problem finding a coffee shop up here - they are everywhere) and today's was called "Some like it Hot Espresso".   

Wilbur, Washington will be home for next 2 nights - just a little town of 846.   We are at the Goose Creek Campground with a few other campers here with us.    Debbie, who checked us in, mentioned "The Farmhouse" just a short walk away for great breakfasts/lunches, bakery and espresso"....   Say no more, Debbie!   Ha...

 We got Flo settled and walked to The Farmhouse- what a treat....excellent lunches and good-looking bakery goodes and all the coffee treats for tomorrow?    We had our masks, tables were well spread apart and just a few other customers.    I had a grilled cheese on grilled sourdough with bacon and tomato; Mark had the patty melt and then homemade pasta and homemade potato salads.

Lemonade and iced tea with "paper" patriotic straws and flags!
These drinks were excellent, too!

Back to Flo with some leftovers, took naps, read and just enjoyed a leisurely Friday afternoon.

At 4, we walked downtown - not much to see and very quiet this Friday afternoon of a holiday weekend.    Most of the businesses are closed (permanently)  and those still surviving, were closed.
Actually, the only thing open was a family restaurant.

Chinese leftovers for supper!

Have a safe, fun 4th !!!
