We stopped at the Safeway in The Dalles to get gas in the RV and to get our 10¢ a gallon discount which we had earned yesterday after buying groceries. Of course, the 10¢ discount is only good for 30 gallons but we still got our 3¢ a gallon discount for the rest of the fill-up. However, the pump cut off at $100 so we got 26.889 gallons for $3.719 (our 10¢ discount) and we got 7.984 gallons for $3.789 (our 3¢ discount).
We left The Dalles at 11:30 and headed east on US-30 through downtown.

After about a mile we connected with US-197 and headed south through farmland and rolling hills.

A little after 12:00 we found a large pull-off and stopped there to fix lunch.

We drove through the town of Maupin and crossed the Deschutes River.

About 20 minutes south of Maupin we were able to see Mt. Hood to the northwest of us - it was real hazy, but I did manage to get a photo of it.

We arrived at the Crook County RV Park at 3:00. When we went in to register, we also took Tinker. Mike had talked with Karen when he made our reservation and told her we had a Bichon and she said to be sure to bring Tinker in to the office when we registered. Karen has 2 Bichons (the standard Bichon size) and she wanted to see Tinker (who isn't standard Bichon size).
We are in site #68 with full hook-ups (50 amp), wi-fi and basic cable - with tax our site is costing us $29.57 for tonight. I cranked up the satellite dish and found a spot through the trees where we could receive satellite TV reception.
