Today is moving day. We will run into Ennis: dump, get propane, food and laundry.
On the way to town we’ll stop on Ruby Creek CG to get a site before going into town. We got site 15 again. We will more than likely stay here for 2 weeks.
Fished for a while after we got camp set up, got nothing.

Cold again this morning 22 degrees outside and only up to 66 today.
One of the things I added to the coach this year is an extended stay propane gas system. This allows us to use an external propane bottle so we don’t have to drive the coach 28 miles into town when we need propane.
The bulk propane we have gone to in the past is closed to fill bottles and RV’s. They have a sign on the door directing people to the grocery store or one of the gas stations for bottle exchange. We went to the gas station and exchanged bottles for $19.99. The guy at the station did say their is another bulk propane place a little further out of town, we try that one the next time we need propane.
Fished in the afternoon and got nothing, oh well.
