Serene. An American Dipper poking about in the water.
We come to an edge.
The water goes over.SouthFalls more South Falls 
Truck and travel-trailer in the driveway.
But the yard; the yard is anything but normal.
…a little bit of yard-art, and a whole lot of plants.
Cameron was just put the finishing touches on the mural.
A little deck in the back with a wading pool for the granddaughter Francis.
I suppose that garden is always in bloom.
For dinner, a nice fajita spread. Under Francis’ watchful eye, Myet prepared the custom decorated, strawberry, lemonade, seltzer special drinks.
With umbrellas!
Amanda, who works at a research facility, brought a few flats of just-picked organic blackberries and blueberries. I think Robin and Judy didn’t move from the kitchen counter for about an hour.
It’s all Eddie’s house and yard.

It’s a nice park; a safe comfortable place to be while we figure out what to do next. We have a diesel repair guy scheduled to stop by our rig tomorrow and read the error codes. That’s what a modern diesel engine does, it records codes for any problem it has. In fact, most of the time when an engine doesn’t want to run, it’s not that it can’t run, it’s that sensors tell the computer that there is a problem (thus an error code), and the computer decides it wouldn’t be a good idea for the engine to continue to run with a problem like that, so it shuts itself down. Oftentimes, in fact more often than not, it turns out that there really isn’t an engine problem at all, but a sensor has failed, sending a false message to the computer, causing it to shut itself down for a problem that doesn’t exist. So here we are; inland, and it’s warm; 89 degrees. We’ve been on the coast, on the south side of seventy degrees for the last month though, so this warm weather feels really good so far. We have plans to visit friends tomorrow farther inland, across the Cascades, near Bend. This is life on the road, though. Sometimes plans change. We’ll see what tomorrow brings.
