Lake Pearrygin

Sunday April 26- Monday April 27 (Days 437 and 438)

 
Pearrygin Lake is a favorite fishing place for Marilyn and Gene, and so we tag along. We left Wenatchee on Sunday, under beautiful blue skies. The wildflowers are beginning to appear on the hills, turning them from brown to green and yellow and blue.




 This was our site at the County River RV park.



This little place is a favorite roadside stop for lunch and ice cream. Unfortunately, Judy lost her sunglasses here. :( But the chocolate brownie ice cream was good.





 
We stopped at Twisp along the way to check out a quilt shop, (closed on Sundays), and in the yard of the house next door were two little deer resting in the shade. They looked like pets!




 
Marmots or some such creatures are all over the park and this guy is within 12 feet of Howie, chirping away at us in the early morning and late at night.




 
Marilyn's friends from Poulsbo, Al and Sharon Brown joined us for this trip. Sharon cooked us a terrific dinner the first night.




 
Monday morning we took a walk up the hill and a little ways out of the park and geocached (of course) along the way. The birds were prolific and noisy! One cache was in a little birdhouse on the park sign.






One cache was in this old storage building. Fortunately for us, it had been moved from hanging inside (and falling on the ground some feet below the window opening) to a rock along the foundation.


















 
Dinner Monday was a recipe that Marilyn wanted to show Harris from the most recent Cooks Illustrated, BBQ pork medalians in Hoisin sauce. It was great!




 The whole crew minus the photographer!
