We have decided this Elks’ Club RV park is the best place to spend time—we are just down the street from Wal-Mart, Costco, the Post Office, Winco, a laundromat, Great Harvest Bread Company, and the wonderful Salem Saturday Market.
I have taken lots of photos of things we enjoy. This one made our days easier—close by, clean and no kids!! A real winner!
This is RV reality. We visited this place almost every four days to keep up with the dirty clothes. We are either the cleanest—or dirtiest RVers. Our next RV, if there is one, will have a washer/dryer! I am not budging on that requirement. Some laundromats are just creepy!
Visiting the weekly Saturday Salem Farmers’ Market was a bright spot in our week. Well-behaved dogs are welcome—and there was a mighty collection each week. I loved this guy; do you think he would like living in the camper with us?
This one was cute too. He knew where the goodies were located.
The food booths represented a quick trip around the world and a big hit with market goers. Larry and I just drooled, but couldn’t enjoy because the sodium levels of the offerings were off the charts!
My favorite booths are craft booths. Does your hand itch to grab your wallet and come shopping?
Pottery, of course, and I had to have one of these beautiful wind chimes—a gift to Carol, from Carol. Besides being beautiful, the tinklely sounds will remind me of our lazy, fun days in Salem, OR.
A close-up of the chimes. Aren’t the colors inviting?
So many choices, so little room in the camper! Too many talented crafters in the Salem area. Not fair!!
Now, could you walk past this booth and not buy some of the delicious Oregon berries?
We ate our fill of berries! Time to go before we start sprouting berry bushes and vines from our bodies!
I mean, could you pass this up? It was as good as it looks!
I have so many other photos to share…but will close with one of the OR National Guard pilots practicing doing basket pick-ups across the street from the Elks’ Club.
We plan to be in Antioch, CA, by Friday so Larry can do his labs and a chest X-ray before heading for Texas for October and November. We have a bit more work to finish up working on the house for this year.
This summer has been a real hot hoot! Welcome Fall, we have been waiting for you!
I would have gotten into a lot of trouble in that pottery booth! And the berries look so yummy. I'm in total agreement re laundromats, as you know. Love to avoid 'em. Thanks for sharing such an interesting place - Safe travels!
