I am camping with the Cascadia Chapter (Washington and BC Canada) of RVing Women (RVW) in Westport Washington, about midway down the coast.  We are staying at American Sunset RV and Tent Resort for the RVW weekend. I arrived about mid-afternoon Wednesday to find that I was not the first member to settle into the campground--a group had been camping down at Grayland for several days and had moved north on Wednesday.

We had great sun and puffy white clouds to set up, but the evening and night brought winds and heavy rains that finally tapered off after midnight.  Thursday was cloudy all day and looked very threatening.  a group of us had planed to walk into town, but with the intermittent rain drops we opted for a short walk to the pizza/Italian restaurant across the highway next to the air port.  We shared a fantastic pulled pork/ham/pineapple/onion/BBQ sauce pizza and watched the birds playing in the wind above the air strip--egrets, swallows, and a raptor that was up too high to identify.

I spent the later part of the afternoon as a "Hi There Gal," walking the campground finding RVW members, welcoming them to the event, and handing out schedules.  Since I'm not sure about most people's names, I was accompanying Lauri, a gal who has been a member for six years and knows just about everyone.  I took a few pictures of rigs so that you could see the variety--I didn't get a picture of our tenters or our cabin-renters.

Fran's Aliner is 12 feet long--much bigger than
 mine was.  Her dog Jackson, who is fairly big, has his own bed.

These are both RVW rigs.  The closest, the class C LazyDaze
is a great contrast to the elegant Tiffin class A.

This 5th wheel is about the middle of the size range
 we RVWs  are driving.

With no wind yesterday afternoon and evening the mosquitoes settled on us in droves.  Most of us ended up turning in early.

We had a beautiful clear blue sky this morning, but some clouds are moving in.  I'm taking off for the dock part of town, (to the north).  I'll take some pictures as I go!
