May 16th – 17th Redmond Expo Center

Jim departs for home with a couple of ideas about how to improve his Snark.  Carl and I head TerraVia towards Redmond, a very short drive, and our one night at the Redmond Expo RV Park to take on water and clean out the tanks.  Taking on water has a whole new meaning.  On ExTerra it would be a stressful, potentially dangerous situation.  In TerraVia it is a necessity and the generous 78-gallon tank allows us a lot of leeway.  We choose to carry about 30 gallons in the tank, plenty for our needs for a few days.

Our neighbor has just returned from 4 months in Baja in his nice pickup camper.  He has it taken apart and is doing some maintenance.  We yak for quite sometime about the places he has gone and what he encountered.  He puts into Mexico at Mexicali and then heads towards Loreto.  “Take your time, get into the slow-paced life,” he imparts.  We hike to the nearby Juniper golf course for dinner and a dark beer, actually, a German black ale, which is new to us but similar to a sweet stout.
