We then motored up I-5 for another 200 miles or so and stopped at this great place on the Columbia River; I guess there is a river theme here somewhere. We wanted to get by Portland and settled on this place about 20 miles north into Washington.





This is the Columbia Riverfront RV Park in Woodland Washington and yes it is ... wow ... riverfront indeed. Actually located on Dike Road so you know that the levee is behind the park in case the river leaps up overnight.

The picture above is while I'm standing about 50 feet in front of the RV and as I turned around you get this view of the park itself with the Flying Scotsman to the left.




Huge grassy area ... read dog walk ... in front of us and nothing to obstruct our view of the Columbia and the river traffic. The boys are obviously impressed with the view.



And we hit the tulip season just as it peaked and took some pictures at the Holland America Bulb facility in Woodland. Lots of rain and fog that finally broke off.



Maybe 60 for the high and 44 for the low and quite rainy and lots of mud in the fields.
