Downtown Moses Lake!
Lazy days. We got up and did a little geocaching close to our park, then came back for breakfast. The rv park had its own overpass over the freeway that took us right into a city park nestled between the freeway and a couple of fingers of Moses Lake. It was large enough to have 2 caches on it which were found after Judy convinced herself that indeed rattlesnakes are most active at night.
Too bad Harris is allergic
We drove into the town proper and did one more geocache, then got sidelined by the museum. The museum is sponsoring a traveling exhibit from the Smithsonian about traveling in America. It is a very interesting exhibit, and the museum does a great job with it. Nice to see our tax dollars at work doing something that almost all would agree is a good use of taxes.

. We finally ate lunch about 2, then traveled on a great distance to Soap Lake and another private campground. This campground was purchased by a couple that wants to build it back up because the previous owners simply charged people to buy a membership and then pocked the yearly dues without providing upkeep or improvements.
Some Moses Lake history at the museum
. We were able to park upfront and enjoy great views, but the sun wasn’t cooperating and so we passed on the pool and hot tub. The regular price is $25 for full hookups so 12.50 (using campclub) was fantastic. This would be a great spot on a clear starry night. Lazy days indeed. A little more walking, cards, dinner, a great movie (Blindside)and bed. We lead such exciting lives, but at least it’s a change of scenery.
