dear vanogoneroniters

we are currently in ellensburg ...
my wife (god bless her pointed little head ) suggested 90 all the way east
..
we stopped in to have supper and i realized we would be cutting across two
of the coldest states in the world montana and south and or north dakota
i didnt study the map any further than east of spokane
oy //
no offence to ay one who lives there but i hae spent considerable time on
the canadain prarrie in the winter and have no interest in temperatures
below the below of temperatures...
summer would be a better time for that trip ... :)

so we are going to dip down I 80 and eastern it from there ...
weather dependent of course ...
so far
we have stimulated the economy of seattle with considerable investment for a
mediocre phone and a last years motorola gps

so more updates as we progress ...

too bad to miss Matthew s impromptu circling of the wagons ... er ..
circling of the vanagons ...
have fun in lynwood
yours
