We Got Our Trailer!



The previous night we stayed at Birch Bay State Park, a park on the ocean.  We strolled along the beach and Barbara sat at a picnic table as the sun was going down.
 


The next morning we headed out early to cross the border to Canada (you never know how long that’s going to take) and get to Chilliwack, British Columbia for our 8am trailer orientation.  We sailed through the border crossing (perhaps saying we were buying a Canadian-built trailer helped), picked up a quick breakfast at Tim Horten’s, and made it to the trailer manufacturer.

Their orientation explained all the things inside and outside the trailer.  Lots of details! 


Then to simplify the customs procedure, they drove the trailer across the border to the US and we met the trailer there.  Then off we went…


We drove back to Deception Pass State Park, weighing the trailer and buying food on the way and then we moved in. 

We were glad to have our new letterboxing friend, Judy, join us for our first meal in our new home on wheels.  Enjoyed the yummy pie she brought over for dinner – a delightful house-warming gift.
