Boy, eastern Oregon is desolate. Miles and mile of nothing but more miles. Most was areas of high dessert with occasional farms that can only exist with irrigation. Lunch time found us in the town of Burns, population about 2,700, but they did have a MacDonald's so we grabbed lunch there.
When we arrived in Bend we had to do some maneuvering as the direct route to the RV park would have taken us under a low railroad bridge. The clearance was 12' 10" and we need 12' 7" but that was too close for comfort so we called the park and they routed us around the bridge. What an RV park! Goes by the name of Crown Villa RV Resort and it's the fanciest one we've seen. Our parking pad is not gravel, asphalt or concrete, it's pavers.
Here is a photo of us in our parking spot, you can see the pavers.
And here are two photos of the RV park.
Lots of big, expensive motor homes around us. Our little 28' rig looked like a little toy. The unit next to us is a Beaver Marquis. It's 45' long and has every bell and whistle known to man. It's got a special hitch on the back so they can carry their Harley Davidson cruiser and tow a car at the same time.
It's hot, 97 degrees when we got here but it cooled down fast and we got out the BBQ grill and grilled some pork chops with baked potato and spinach. By the time to eat it was so pleasant out that we ate outside. Tomorrow is supposed to be cooler with a forecast high of 88.
