At least I am, the missus spends the majority of her time working. Hey, my lifestyle choices don&#8217;t come cheap. Time really gets away from me up here. It&#8217;s been something of an issue I&#8217;ve noticed back at the house, but here it&#8217;s even worse. I had every intention of updating this thing last Monday, but it was Wednesday or Thursday before I noticed that I&#8217;d forgotten, and then I decided it was just too late. There are worse problems I guess.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Things are going just fantastic here. It is quite peaceful, it is so quiet in the evenings that it&#8217;s almost eerie. *Now, the holiday weekend may turn out to be a different story, we&#8217;ll see about that. Even so, they&#8217;ll all leave as soon as the 3-day weekend is over. I&#8217;m continuing my quest to complete the PCT while here, and it&#8217;s going just fabulous. I am pleased to report that I am up into the double-digit miles already! Still well over 2,600 miles to go, but hey, you got to start somewhere. I did hit a small snag though; I took the dogs 4 miles one day, and that proved to be a horrible idea. I wasn&#8217;t sure they were going to get back to the RV under their own power. I suppose I could carry them if need be, but I wasn&#8217;t too excited about that idea. They did make it though. Haven&#8217;t gone back out yet until I decide on a new plan. Maybe I&#8217;ll just leave them in the RV and head out by myself, but they typically don&#8217;t like that idea much. And&#8230; that&#8217;s about it. Continuing to cook all meals on the outdoor griddle or the grill over the firepit, which I feel I am getting a bit more adept at. We did go out twice also, once to pizza and once for Mexican.  Both were great, but you&#8217;re looking at a 30 minute drive each way to get to any restaurant so I&#8217;d just as soon stay at the campground.<\/p>\n\n\n\nngg_shortcode_0_placeholder\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>So we&#8217;re still out in the RV, living the life.
