July, 2021
On this 2021 “boondocking” camping trip, I had been out and about in my perfect white truck and my perfect white trailer for about 11 days, but it was time to head home and pick up the mail, pay bills, do the laundry, touch up the flower beds around my home, and take care of a few other chores.
This trip was my first boondocking experience … camping on private property with no electrical or water hookups.
Thanks to my incomparable sister and my incomparable niece in Darrington for boondocking spot #1. They are the very best. I love them dearly. 🙂
My heartfelt thanks to the women who own the property north of Lake Goodwin who were my first “Boondockers Welcome” hosts, so generous and helpful hosts, spot #2 on this trip.
And a very grateful thank-you to Sandy in Bremerton for that “Boondockers Welcome” spot in her peaceful, quiet neighborhood … for her johnny-at-the-spot dealing with the noisy neighbors … and for her friendship. This was spot #3 on this trip.
I will be back to each of those spots, you can count on it.
But this morning at the end of this boondocking camping trip, it was time to hitch up and head home.
I was relaxed and happy. Rather than the big I-5 freeway home, I took the slow, long way home, heading south along back country roads, slowly meandering south from the Bremerton area, then east, then west, then south some more, and I finally headed east on Highway 101 to my home in the greater Olympia, WA, area.
Oh boy, I am so eager to head out again! Stay tuned, another camping adventure is coming soon.
