Day 270 Friday May 11
We got up early and went to Washougal and the Pendleton mill for the tour.  It was impressive to see how they go from raw wool to finished cloth and blankets.  No pictures allowed.  We went back to the RV park and headed home.  Good drive and it was great to see the Olympics again.
Drove 127 miles

We drove the motor home about 11,000 miles averaging about 9.5 miles per gallon.  Goldie was driven about 6000 miles.
