Joe & Kim Frey's house, Twisp
We went to Twisp to visit the Frey's - Mike and Bettilynn Clingmans joined us as Kim is Bettilynn's best friend. They Frey's have 12 aces, so there was plenty of room to tuck our trailer inbetween the house and the shop.
Eric spent much of the trip trying to fix things on the trailer. For every leak he fixed in teh water pipes, he found a new one further down the lines. He finally jury-rigged it together so it would work for this trip at least. We never got the hot water working. (Turns out both of us were trying to light it in the same, wrong, place!) Eric also tried fixing the drawer slides, but wasn't able to install them properly either. Maybe by our next trip everything will work.
The weather was hot - upper 90's. Luckily it cools off at night and we actually had to use the heater.
We spent our days playing at Pearrygin Lake State Park and the local pool - which had a great toddler area.
Joshua also had a great time exploring the Frey's property - chasing chickens, jumping on the trampoline and playing with their toy dump truck.
There are free-range cows in the area and one day about 30-40 of them were grazing out back.
Monday night, there was a thunder and lightning storm. It was raining so hard for awhile it was actually raining sideways. Joshua was scared at first by the noise, but got over it and slept through the worst of it.
