With the RV in the mall parking lot we head to Chick-fil-A with Gail… not sure whey Jayden is carrying Robert but they seem to be having fun. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/66ca172436ab2e3cfbd193d1/0df518d0-c25b-45cf-945e-6720e05072ea/IMG_3580.jpg ItsDillerTime Blog - Maine: Friends, Foliage & some Acadia!

The Narrows across the water from Acadia on Mount Desert Island. French explorer Samuel de Champlain named this island Mount Desert Island in 1604 but its hard to see why. The historical account is that the name came from the large bald spots atop Cadillac , Sargent, Pemetic, Gorham and Beehive mountains. While we saw those rocky prominences and enjoyed a few scrambles we struggle to imagine what the island looked like when Champlain landed. Around those rocks are some pretty lush trees… maybe it was winter? https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/66ca172436ab2e3cfbd193d1/2a479fee-adf8-45c3-ae5a-84e8a944e340/IMG_3173.jpg ItsDillerTime Blog - Maine: Friends, Foliage & some Acadia! Peyton did a dumpster dive in St. Ignace and retrieved a bike for Robert. He rebuilt it into a glider to help Robert learn the alternating foot push and balance. Then he put the pedals and gears back on to help him learn to ride. Mom is testing it since Robert didn’t like falling the first ride but we’ll get him rolling more. Great job Peyton on the bike mechanics! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/66ca172436ab2e3cfbd193d1/0505d47b-c47d-479c-8167-a53f2931fab2/IMG_3182.jpg ItsDillerTime Blog - Maine: Friends, Foliage & some Acadia!

We weren’t in the cracking mood despite the “right of passage” for this delicacy, so we enjoyed some lobster rolls, lobster mac-n-cheese and crab cakes. It was officially the most expensive meal we have had on this trip and/or ever served on plastic trays but at least we enjoyed it… except for Jayden. He can’t get past the cracking and didn’t like the chewy texture. So much for the luxury life!

A break in the weather and we were off to Mount Desert Island and Acadia National Park.

For those keeping track, Robert’s science fair project was building a lamp and learning about electricity. Dad finally got a cutting tool and the lamp Robert designed is coming together. Peyton helped with some wiring and Dad made it “safe” and we have a working lamp. Robert is excited and planning for what his lamp shade will be. He hasn’t quite paid attention to the ± wire lesson but he did seem to grasp the concept of resistance and how heat can build up in/on a wire.

With the creation of the “French Castle” (pictured later), the fort was established as a formidable post until Fort George was constructed across the Niagara River in Canada. Fort George initially had an elevated, strategic cannon position over Fort Niagara, helping the British take control of Fort Niagara in 1759 during the French and Inian War. The British passed Fort Niagara to America via the Treaty of Paris in 1783. The Fort exchanged British and American hands during the war of 1812 with Fort George being completely destroyed. Some rich history for this river/lake fort for sure. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/66ca172436ab2e3cfbd193d1/9556ceef-038e-40e8-8251-0a012d43a374/IMG_2732.jpg ItsDillerTime Blog - Pennsylvania-New York: Niagara and a boarder crossing The “French Castle” is the icon of the fort but there were numerous buildings restored around the perimeter. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/66ca172436ab2e3cfbd193d1/6a03636a-12c2-4ccb-8c5a-4ef30712332e/IMG_2743.jpg ItsDillerTime Blog - Pennsylvania-New York: Niagara and a boarder crossing https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/66ca172436ab2e3cfbd193d1/1a96d6b1-7555-49c2-bed7-a05bbb027a1b/IMG_2749.jpg ItsDillerTime Blog - Pennsylvania-New York: Niagara and a boarder crossing Interestingly the guns and artillery were primarily facing the river, Canada and land, not Lake Ontario. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/66ca172436ab2e3cfbd193d1/be0f47a9-7642-4065-b1cb-c45506a38b2d/IMG_2766.jpg ItsDillerTime Blog - Pennsylvania-New York: Niagara and a boarder crossing For a 1700 built structure the French Castle was in surprisingly good condition… it was built really well. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/66ca172436ab2e3cfbd193d1/0a809930-c012-4f19-a7f6-8fc0c438e3c4/IMG_2757.jpg ItsDillerTime Blog - Pennsylvania-New York: Niagara and a boarder crossing https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/66ca172436ab2e3cfbd193d1/721d17a1-3816-43a8-9e79-c85a508678cf/IMG_2758.jpg ItsDillerTime Blog - Pennsylvania-New York: Niagara and a boarder crossing https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/66ca172436ab2e3cfbd193d1/ca90c2c1-9500-4579-b839-b521bec1f327/IMG_2761.jpg ItsDillerTime Blog - Pennsylvania-New York: Niagara and a boarder crossing https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/66ca172436ab2e3cfbd193d1/40345da6-9063-421e-bb80-893106400f21/IMG_2771.jpg ItsDillerTime Blog - Pennsylvania-New York: Niagara and a boarder crossing This artillery position was build to gain elevation over Fort George in Canada. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/66ca172436ab2e3cfbd193d1/ad5420dd-4789-47f0-a839-aefe5f204c5f/IMG_0866.jpg ItsDillerTime Blog - Pennsylvania-New York: Niagara and a boarder crossing Fort Niagara State Park not only houses Fort Niagara but its also a nice park with some great views of Lake Ontario.

We had no idea what to expect but knew there were huge dunes. What we found was a multi-layer dune structure like some of the protected beach along the Florida coast… only much much taller. It was truly amazing how these dunes formed from the Lake Michigan winds, storms and Biblical level floods... that’s alot of sand! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/66ca172436ab2e3cfbd193d1/db6f6580-38e1-4e21-9465-d7f7b04f7fa8/IMG_2231.jpg ItsDillerTime Blog - Michigan: Yoopers, National Lakeshores, Mackinac-ing & Friends and Family We found out that the bear reference is more due to shape of the dunes than a burgeoning bear population but there was legend that accompanied the shape of the dunes. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/66ca172436ab2e3cfbd193d1/24604fc2-45f7-4731-a621-9a95f32532ea/IMG_2260.jpg ItsDillerTime Blog - Michigan: Yoopers, National Lakeshores, Mackinac-ing & Friends and Family Want to know what a 1083 ft dune looks like… here ya go, Shauger Hill! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/66ca172436ab2e3cfbd193d1/4e75b9a7-6718-42ba-a1a9-7e2ac0433aa9/IMG_2264.jpg ItsDillerTime Blog - Michigan: Yoopers, National Lakeshores, Mackinac-ing & Friends and Family The boys found an upper dune area that flattened out a bit for some afternoon football. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/66ca172436ab2e3cfbd193d1/5f24258b-33a6-4041-997f-a4155d3698df/IMG_2287.jpg ItsDillerTime Blog - Michigan: Yoopers, National Lakeshores, Mackinac-ing & Friends and Family https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/66ca172436ab2e3cfbd193d1/d9243960-c9f2-4d46-96ba-0fb067b33594/IMG_2280.jpg ItsDillerTime Blog - Michigan: Yoopers, National Lakeshores, Mackinac-ing & Friends and Family Some DillerTime shadow picks! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/66ca172436ab2e3cfbd193d1/74344a0c-5dbb-4ef7-87cc-f7eb5b13e2a7/IMG_2299.jpg ItsDillerTime Blog - Michigan: Yoopers, National Lakeshores, Mackinac-ing & Friends and Family Running down dunes can be fun… and painful at the bottom :) https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/66ca172436ab2e3cfbd193d1/22c72457-2bc5-4b78-b59d-d1a87ad614b0/IMG_2347.jpg ItsDillerTime Blog - Michigan: Yoopers, National Lakeshores, Mackinac-ing & Friends and Family After some dune hikes we caught the waning sunset at Empire Beach just south of the National Lakeshore. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/66ca172436ab2e3cfbd193d1/2b1f0264-4861-4cbc-9526-ebaeea6c8dd3/IMG_2374.jpg ItsDillerTime Blog - Michigan: Yoopers, National Lakeshores, Mackinac-ing & Friends and Family As we hasten our pace to finish by November, we took off and head south to Grand Rapids area where we caught up with family and some friends. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/66ca172436ab2e3cfbd193d1/61641b7a-1540-4c6f-b48e-beef263d49c6/IMG_0752.jpg ItsDillerTime Blog - Michigan: Yoopers, National Lakeshores, Mackinac-ing & Friends and Family - Make it stand out We stopped north of Grand Rapids and were treated to a PBA reunion with friend and colleague Jenny!

They have the best priced fairs out of Minneapolis for sure. Vince used them to get to Seattle after moving Casper from North Carolina to Minneapolis early this summer; however, the airline has a few NOT SO FAMILY FRIENDLY policies. While many airlines have piled on with all the upcharges and added fees, Sun Country charged for everything from snacks on the plane, carry-on bags, and seat selection. But here is the sticky point, you don’t have to pay for your seat but if you don’t their computer “randomly” seats your party and their stated policy is that anyone over 6 yrs old can be sat on their own. Also, disabilities do not qualify for an exemption to paying for your seat selection for parent and child. Vince was not pleased with their policies and he’s cheap so he discussed the policies with management… While a manager did respond on phone and via email, they were not successful in defending their policy beyond paying for seat selection if you have children or a disabled member of your party. Vince was/is not a fan. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/66ca172436ab2e3cfbd193d1/95e8265c-d3ed-4104-83da-d99f135de6ac/IMG_0992.jpg ItsDillerTime Blog - Minnesota-Florida✈️-Wisconsin Great thing about Orlando Airport… tram rides!

There are a few dirt roads back into the picnic areas curving through the meadows. There are a number of “exlclosures” which are fended areas protecting the native flora and shrubs, which were being overeaten by the large elk herd. The exclosures protected the wetlands but still allowed deer and smaller animals in to feed but pushed the elk herd down range a bit to find more pastures. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/66ca172436ab2e3cfbd193d1/082bbb10-d4f7-4aea-9a1c-2df5181bba5b/IMG_7920.jpg ItsDillerTime Blog - Colorado: Estes Park & Rocky Mountain National Park Sprague Lake was advertised as a “have to stop” but we were told it was for moose.

This was also not at a safe distance because instead of standing for pictures up the mountain these Big Horned Sheep were coming down to cross the road, where Michele and Peyton were standing. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/66ca172436ab2e3cfbd193d1/e434da7c-3088-4eeb-aa76-c8942e9b4a04/IMG_5519.jpg ItsDillerTime Blog - Montana: Glacier National Park & West Glacier Safely out of the way they got some incredible video and pictures. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/66ca172436ab2e3cfbd193d1/24435f66-ee74-4d05-9b8a-602818d390d1/IMG_5523.jpg ItsDillerTime Blog - Montana: Glacier National Park & West Glacier https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/66ca172436ab2e3cfbd193d1/9b0897cd-204c-4dcf-a737-3438a71849df/IMG_5521.jpg ItsDillerTime Blog - Montana: Glacier National Park & West Glacier Logan’s Pass is not only the mid-point but also is the Continental Divide.

It’s a passage gravel road but you’re truly off-the-grid with no cell services and very few ranches or homesteads to go to if you breakdown. 4 wheel drive recommended but not required, just need to be sure you have a spare. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/66ca172436ab2e3cfbd193d1/afc46dc3-ca30-4c75-84f3-83f19b31df3b/IMG_5648.jpg ItsDillerTime Blog - Montana: Glacier National Park & West Glacier https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/66ca172436ab2e3cfbd193d1/34f76e02-aefe-4e8d-b398-a46a0183e0ce/IMG_5654.jpg ItsDillerTime Blog - Montana: Glacier National Park & West Glacier North Fork River was beautiful and we saw a number of rafters floating the norther branch.

The west side of the creek is less traveled but has a great path along the creek with some amazing rock features carved out by the water. The geometric shapes of the rocks along the river are really intriguing.

Jayden celebrated a big 16th Birthday in La Push. We’ve been celebrating for weeks with some surging presents all the way back to Oregon but with some added Birthday cash Jayden rented another wetsuit and board and caught some La Push waves. He’s getting better! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/66ca172436ab2e3cfbd193d1/460164a0-61e6-4c1d-a635-a5a701479d64/IMG_2975.jpg ItsDillerTime Blog - Washington: Twilight at the Beach… La Push Baby! La Push 1st Beach has an interesting break with a channel just off short between the break and James Island which is the largest of the coastal barrier islands. The break changes relative to the tide significantly and so do the swells. Pictured is about knee to waist high but it quickly got to chest and head high just a bit south on the beach. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/66ca172436ab2e3cfbd193d1/e03f67bb-7354-47ce-bf6d-8d287af1b53a/IMG_3010.jpg ItsDillerTime Blog - Washington: Twilight at the Beach… La Push Baby!

Little shadow love in front of a burned out root system on the beach. The beaches are restricted for camping for most of the year but camping for non native Quileute opened last week and we saw many setting up a seaside tent along the driftwood forest.

North of the jetty and Quilayute River is Rialto Beach, just past the Olympic National Park Mora Campground. Rialto is a rockhound haven with some naturally polished stone making up the entire beach on the south end. James Island is on the south end (left) which is the end of 1st Beach south of the river. The jetty extend all the way to James Island and creates the river inlet and port for fishing vessels. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/66ca172436ab2e3cfbd193d1/5b95b3df-a48a-421c-a70b-227f353ff1a8/IMG_3508.jpg ItsDillerTime Blog - Washington: Twilight at the Beach… La Push Baby! This is the jetty that extends out to James Island separating Rialto Beach from the Quillayute River. The jetty is lined with more drift wood trees so this was Robert and Vince’s parcour course for this beach hike. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/66ca172436ab2e3cfbd193d1/55ccb0bd-1525-48a8-b86c-418cec586a45/IMG_3522.jpg ItsDillerTime Blog - Washington: Twilight at the Beach… La Push Baby! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/66ca172436ab2e3cfbd193d1/81ac7ee2-812e-4194-a52c-265f6b65f45b/IMG_3538.jpg ItsDillerTime Blog - Washington: Twilight at the Beach… La Push Baby! - Make it stand out Hard to tell but most of those trees are 2-3 ft in diameter so it was a workout but Dad and Robert both this great for this roughly 1.2 mile parkour hike. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/66ca172436ab2e3cfbd193d1/a126f991-f5dc-4c9f-ba12-efc4107da2eb/IMG_3535.jpg ItsDillerTime Blog - Washington: Twilight at the Beach… La Push Baby! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/66ca172436ab2e3cfbd193d1/92132e18-0934-4fdf-b3a8-55abda9d9fcb/IMG_3549.jpg ItsDillerTime Blog - Washington: Twilight at the Beach… La Push Baby!

Every RV trip has its mechanical hurdles and we got our latest at La Push. The RV’s hydraulic stabilizing jacks lit up like a Christmas Tree and wouldn’t retract. These are some heavy duty jacks so you can’t just drive with them down, nor do they manually retract very east. Being hydraulic they do have a motor and pump but when you’re in a remote location with barely any cell service it’s not easy to get detailed instructions or a mechanic. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/66ca172436ab2e3cfbd193d1/72903ff3-f4c0-4666-ab49-bd363b29d427/IMG_3601.jpg ItsDillerTime Blog - Washington: Twilight at the Beach… La Push Baby! - Make it stand out We found a mechanic in Forks who spent hours on the hydraulic system and found a burden out motor. After repairing that, no power and without detailed schematics of the wiring from the makers we were stuck and couldn’t find where the system burned out or blew a fuse. We found 3 fuses but not the right one so we manually bled the hydraulic lines and pushed the jacks up to drive back to civilization. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/66ca172436ab2e3cfbd193d1/117c99b7-fac3-42ab-ad93-ae0439421730/IMG_3750.jpg ItsDillerTime Blog - Washington: Twilight at the Beach… La Push Baby! - Make it stand out In Port Angeles, which is a decent sized town, we found a good spot to stop at Salish Trail Campground and a super kind retired mechanic to help us find the source of the electrical failure. Here it is, a 150 amp, Bussman, AIM fuse. You wouldn’t believe how many kids of these fuses there are and non in town fit our specific set up so Amazon was good for an overnight delivery and we got the juice back to the hydraulic system. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/66ca172436ab2e3cfbd193d1/f08a7f77-977d-4b36-bf3d-4bde28b12db2/IMG_3759.jpg ItsDillerTime Blog - Washington: Twilight at the Beach… La Push Baby! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/66ca172436ab2e3cfbd193d1/fc7c0693-0cd2-4cfc-be2b-1bba94301bce/IMG_3662.jpg ItsDillerTime Blog - Washington: Twilight at the Beach… La Push Baby! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/66ca172436ab2e3cfbd193d1/dd5088b7-4137-4d5c-baba-d25ca378f253/IMG_3670.jpg ItsDillerTime Blog - Washington: Twilight at the Beach… La Push Baby! - Make it stand out Sunset over the Juan de Fuca Stait was a treat after tickering with the RV electrical system.

Saint Helens was a long drive in but worth the surreal view of the reformed landscape. You could see how the side of the mountain literally slid off and formed the two ridges in the center of the picture, as well as the North Fork Route River, which flows down toward Robert’s head in this picture. The land was reshaped in a matter of hours in 1980 when the wall bulge then slid off during the eruption. Then again an earth shaping event in 1982 when the glaciers that had formed rapidly in the volcano were heated and a second eruption pushed mud, averaging 150 feet thick, out and downhill carving gorges and valleys as it went. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/66ca172436ab2e3cfbd193d1/cfbd38af-22fb-40ef-b095-f12c3896b743/IMG_1996.jpg ItsDillerTime Blog - Washington: 2 Volcanic Mountains ️ + Paradise https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/66ca172436ab2e3cfbd193d1/815f995c-8dd7-41cb-90cb-d8cd608efd9b/IMG_2001.jpg ItsDillerTime Blog - Washington: 2 Volcanic Mountains ️ + Paradise https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/66ca172436ab2e3cfbd193d1/2f5db18b-7a2c-4a19-ba50-b823740d48d1/IMG_1992.jpg ItsDillerTime Blog - Washington: 2 Volcanic Mountains ️ + Paradise https://www.itsdillertime.com/blog/oregon-astoria-seaside-cannon-beach-sandy-creek-beach-the-lewis-and-clark-national-historic-park- monthly 0.5 2025-06-08 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/66ca172436ab2e3cfbd193d1/1c6e41bf-fbd2-402a-9aef-c402dbaa05c6/IMG_1590.jpg ItsDillerTime Blog - Oregon: Northern Coast & the Lewis and Clark National Historic Park ‍♂️ Cannon Beach sunset was amazing! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/66ca172436ab2e3cfbd193d1/dc68b275-1175-46be-9210-c60f6ff71ffc/IMG_1610.jpg ItsDillerTime Blog - Oregon: Northern Coast & the Lewis and Clark National Historic Park ‍♂️ https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/66ca172436ab2e3cfbd193d1/dde05596-f19a-4b47-94d1-b7a68a90fac9/IMG_1574.jpg ItsDillerTime Blog - Oregon: Northern Coast & the Lewis and Clark National Historic Park ‍♂️ https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/66ca172436ab2e3cfbd193d1/fbfe2df9-22d0-4ed6-ac3a-32383cd036e4/IMG_1617.jpg ItsDillerTime Blog - Oregon: Northern Coast & the Lewis and Clark National Historic Park ‍♂️ The large boulder called Haystack Rock on Cannon Beach creates a rock laden space along the otherwise smooth sandy beach.
