Headed north

We left Redding for Olympia and made it up close to the Oregon border when a fan blade came loose and went through the radiator, we called a tow truck and they took us back to Yreka, Calif where we spent the night and got it repaired the next day, we then went on up to Seven Feathers Casino and spent the night (didnt win any money) then on to Olympia with no further problems the next morning. The old motorhome seems to be in real good running order so we believe it will make the trip on to Alaska OK. Will spend a week or so here with Son Cliff and get some golf in and maybe a Mariners game before we leave. We will meet up with Sam and Joan Bishop in their motorhome up in British Columbia at Cache Creek and go on up the road to Alaska, look forward to a nice enjoyable trip. Will post again next week, later Cliff and Jeanne.

Update

We have been neglecting our blog so will try to catch up. Jeanne had to go back to the hospital for three days to find out that she did'nt have anything wrong with her, for which we are thankful. We have had a good time here in Redding seeing old time friends and relatives, Junior Mark came into Barnes and Nobel at my book signing, he is an old time friend and we went to dinner with he and his wife Helen, he had seen the ad in the paper that I was going to be there, it was great renewing our friendship. We have been working on the motorhome getting ready for the trip up the Alaska Highway, we will be going up with Sam and Joan Bishop and will keep a journal of the trip and put it in the blog when we arrive. This trip started on Sept 27th out of Fairbanks (2009) and due to Jeannes operation and recovery we still are not home. Will close for now--Later, Cliff.
