We finally moved on from our Boondockers Welcome site yesterday. We decided to stop at the Silver Falls State Park near Salem to use the RV dump there near there. It took us about 60 total miles out of our way. The wife was not thrilled about that.

We managed to drive a little through Portland, about an hour and half behind scheule. We got to see quite a bit of the homeless encampments that have cropped up everywhere. We are not sure if they even have a plan to deal with them, the city has really turn to crap as far as we could tell in just less than six years (which is the last time we were here).

We finallly stopped at the Scatter Creek Safety Stop for the night. The most unique thing here is that they have 3 lanes for RV Dumps. So three people can be dumping at one time. This morning it was overcast and I was little worried that the batteries would not charge. It's almost noon and there is a little more sunlight coming out and that seems to be charging the batteries just fine for now.

Later this afternoon, we move up towards Olympia to our two night stay at our next Boondocker's Welcome Host
