So we're leaving today or Seattle from Bend, Oregon.  About 650 miles round
trip. We are camping just north of Portland tonight, to break up the drive
for our 10 month old, at a place called Paradise Point State Park.  Anyone
been there?  Anyway, we are spoiling ourselves with our first electrical
hook-up.  We've never thought of Totoro as a camper but this time we're
outfitting the van with a small space heater, dvd player and some white
Christmas light strung around the interior for house lights. Woo hoo.  We
are trying to do this trip as cheap as possible so Friday night we are
hitting, get this, an RV park(!!!) just east of Seattle.  Saturday night
will be luxurious as we are splurging on a room at the Moore hotel, though
we've never been there and it is also fairly cheap. Wish us luck, I have
packed the requisite tools/fluids/Bentley/ voltmeter.
