You know how like when you pull into an RV resort or park and there's like those long parking spots
right out front of the office and you park there and then you go inside you register and then you
go to your site? Okay that's our site. We're there. We pulled up and I'm like do you think I can park
here because you might be blocking. It's a little dicey. And then she comes out she says let me show
to your site. Oh you're in it. All right look. So guys officially no planning has caught up to us.
Well it is 4th of July weekend at the premier Cannon Beach RV resort. With no data. Across the
street from Cannon Beach on 4th of July. It's amazing we even get to dry camp here for 28 bucks.
No no no data. Do you see that? The kids are freaking out because Verizon has one bar and it's
fake. Actually no Verizon says no service. Okay and of course on 4th of July weekend you can imagine
what the internet situation is here. But you know what though? We got the video out this morning.
We're across the street from Cannon Beach. What do what do we need to do? We just we just needed a
place to sleep and I don't want to be at a Walmart on 4th of July weekend. No I don't either. So why
don't we do this? We're allowed to unhook right? We could yeah. So let's unhook and let's get into
town. Yeah and let's make the most of Cannon. Tonight we'll rank Goonies. Okay and uh and then
tomorrow morning we'll head to Mount Rainier. How do we do that without data? You just thought of that.
As soon as I went to go lower the tongue jack hitch which I just talked about this morning of
all times. Listen. It seems like the motor the gears inside the tongue jack are like stripped.
They're not working and the problem is if we sit here we have to disconnect and if we don't
disconnect we can't go see Cannon Beach and the town of Cannon which we really wanted to do.
So I would say and it's 4th of July weekend so nothing's open.
So I would say we are in a predicament. Put everything back to the way it was. We kind of
agreed that it can't be fixed quickly like right now. So now that we have Ginger permanently
attached we are going to go into town and check it out. Welcome to Cannon Beach. This place is
so super oozingly charming. It really is. Those are the haystacks. Do those rocks look familiar?
One-eyed willy hashtag. Oh yeah. Anyhow so we are now here and uh and by the way this is now on
our very short list of places that Trish and I have kind of like earmarked as place destinations
we'd like to come back to. It is so much fun. People have picnics. Of course it's dog friendly
because this is Oregon. There's dogs everywhere and just lots of fun to be had here in this
charming beautiful town. Well speaking of this charming beautiful town we are going to now go
walk into some shops and go find a place to eat. So let's go do that and we will show you what this
charming little town looks like. Come with us. What day is it? Christmas? No no Easter? St.
Patrick's? Can't remember. Happy 4th of July. The only problem with holidays on the channel
is it's a dead giveaway of how far the channel runs behind. People are like 4th of July? This
is an outrage. That was like two months ago. Doing the best we can. Yes. Okay but here's the good
news. When the channel gets behind and then we take little breaks between season between seasons
the channel gets to catch up and we never miss a weekend. So think about all these other series
that we watch on Netflix and whatnot. It's like okay we're done with the season and we'll come
back to you in about seven to eight months. And it's so annoying. Yeah by the time they come back
it's like hey hey hey. I don't want you anymore. I don't know if I'm ready for this. Last night we
had a meet up. We did. One day notice we're in Cannon Beach. I mean like how many people are in
this area? Like so many great people. Every time we do a meet up we're just like Trisha and I are
like how come so many cool people follow Keep Your Daydream. Yeah thanks for coming out. Lots
of fun. Now we're headed up to Sumner Washington to be with Bob and Shirley who you remember they
were in the Super C that buddy escort us down to Mexico. There you go. Then we're gonna head up
into Seattle. Maybe do a meet up there. I don't know. Who knows. We'll see. So let's go. Let's go.
Oh and here's the one last thing. I'm gonna flip this camera around so you can get a glimpse of
this RV park. It's really cool. It's a fantastic RV park. Question. Do these glasses look kind of
ridiculous with this hat? Okay first of all yes I am still wearing this hat. And second of all we
just stopped in at Longview Washington actually. Longview Washington to stop in at the Harbor
Freight. I got a eight ton bottle jack for $30. Actually $25. Had a maximum height of 15 inches
which is why I liked it because I can screw it up high. And we got this bad boy which was a
recommendation from Mark at the meet up last night. He says if you get that. Wait hold on Trish. He
says if you get an engine code reader make sure it's the OBD2 with the CAN option scan tool with
live data and the ability to raise codes. That's what he said. This is $99 at Harbor Freight.
If I can find it on Amazon I will do it right now and link it so that you have it. But anyway this
thing I think is going to be awesome because if we have any other problems we can just plug it in
and see what the problem is before we have to take it somewhere. So I'm excited about that. Yes.
And I finally have a sufficient jack which I'm happy with. So and it's 4th of July if you haven't
noticed and I got 25% off at Harbor Freight. So I pretty much got a free bottle jack. I'm setting
off fireworks. Anyhow oh and then also we just met up with Karen and Chris. They live near Longview
and they brought us some super yummy homemade barbecue sauce. I can't wait to make something
good with that. Yeah and they couldn't make the meet up and so they said hey if you're coming
through Longview I said as a matter of fact. Anyhow so all sorts of cool stuff happening. Yep
and now we're back on the road. Back on the road we're headed to Sumner to celebrate 4th of July.
Did you know it's 4th of July? Can you tell? No I don't think they can tell. You guys hear that?
Do you know what it is? It sounds like there's a war zone back there but no it's not a war zone.
Okay okay look at these people lined up right back there. They're all standing behind a giant
rock barrier lighting off everything that you can think of. Safety first. Make sure you stand
behind the rock barrier. Someone literally just told us if you got your fingernails you're doing
good. You're doing good. So just take that word of advice. This place is absolutely insane. Bob what's
this called? The Muckleshoot Indian Firework Extravaganza. Yes. In Sumner, Washington.
And it is not safe for us to even be standing here with these knuckleheads down here
lighting off anything with a fuse. Yes and um and then there's and then there's the stuff
that we bought. And I'm in charge of this. Yeah and anyhow this is uh I mean just endless
endless amount of vendors selling stuff and then all these guys lighting it up over here. Yes.
Crazy but stay tuned because I have a feeling tonight is going to be a pretty big show.
I saw. You think it's gonna light up? It's gonna be lit. It's gonna be lit. Oh gosh. Hashtag dad jokes.
Oh we were just saying what kind of trouble we'd be in if we bought that toy chest
filled with fireworks. Okay if you buy a sparkler here you should be ashamed of yourself.
Oh this is sensory overload. All the lags to fireworks to freedom.
It could happen is you run out and we got you covered. Yeah right. And so I could crack these
guys up how I can just roll with some of these lines and I'm like really I'm not planning it.
I don't have anything written down. It just never dawns on me you know. They're like you're awesome
keep it up. Over there he was all that's mine come on you know. He's like show some respect.
How crazy was last night. Fireworks in the drone like lighting them off the kids was crazy.
Crazy. That's our second year in a row. Second fourth of July in a row that we've been doing
like with people that do their own fireworks. Yes. So much fun. But now we're headed over to
the Lewis's RV service and bus conversion shop. Oh I can't wait. Yeah it's gonna be cool. So come
with us and we're gonna go tour it. Let's go. I just need one more little cub over here. One
more little cub on that coach. It could be like independent cub over to the side it'll be like
Victoria and then you could be in the front like running. So you're saying that they can put one
more paint one more cub on that coach. I'll take it. Then we're gonna start we're gonna start bussing.
Totally. In fact why don't we just cub up the trailer right now. Cub up. Yeah. Hashtag cub up.
Why don't you tell everyone where we are. We are in Sumner Lake Taps Washington at Infinity Coach.
Okay in case we haven't mentioned it Bob and Shirley are who we met when we came down to Mexico
and back in 1990 they started Infinity Coach and now they've retired and their son Jim runs it and
so we had a great I mean they were the ones that kind of helped us get down to Mexico. So
when we came up to Washington they said hey come on stop by stay at the place and then we'll give
you a little tour of Infinity Coach. All right there you have it there's our tour of Infinity
Coach. Very cool deal. I got in a conversation with Jim about sealant and because the ginger
could use some sealant. Very interesting conversation. Check it out. So to me the
importance of sealant is it has to look good. Yeah yeah. Right I mean this is something I'm
gonna stare at the rest of my life practically. Oh that's the sealant? Yeah. It's coming out of that
tube? It's black? Black or white. Okay. It only comes in two colors black or white.
So you remove all the old sealant gently carefully and then you tape everything out
the old tape line so you got your and then you put you apply the glue and use your finger to
smooth it out and then then you pull your tape when it's time. Now figuring out exactly the
moment to pull your tape takes a little bit of time because if you pull it too soon you're gonna
get it's it's a polyurethane glue so you're gonna get the stringers. Yeah. If you pull it too late
the glue sticks to the tape. Yeah. So it's a little bit of a. Well I don't have your stuff on my on my
RV now I just probably have some. Cheap silicone stuff. Yeah. The sidewall see that? Yeah. Just all
So that off now we're taking this whole section of the wall off.
Re-glue it back on. Okay big day today. Big day. Trish has big day planned. Trish tell
about the big day. Okay. Set the stage. World's Fair in the 60s. You know the World's Fair. There
was one in Paris. We got the outfield tower. World's Fair in Seattle. We got the Space Needle.
So today. Wow is that how the Space Needle? Is that why it was created for the World's Fair? Yes.
Wow. So we're going to take the monorail that they built to bring people down to the pier
over by the Space Needle. So we're going to park. We got the inside scoop. Thank you Michelle
and Shirley. There is so much more to see than just this but we're going to park at the West
Lake Center. That's where the monorail takes you for about $2.50 a person. It takes you straight
down to the Space Needle. You can go and see all of that. You can walk down to the pier. You can do
the Ferris wheel if you'd like. If you'd like. If you'd like. I want to do it. Then you check out
all that. Then you take the monorail back up to West Lake Center and you go walk a couple blocks
down to the fish market. The famous farmer's market where they throw you. Flying fish. Pike's
Place. They throw you the fish. Caleb nice to meet you. I learned if you're going to do a trust
goal with Caleb be the third person in line. I'll go with him on the first try.
I think it's so great at the same time. Multicolor on this side. I'm gonna stick it up there and then
if you guys come here I want you to find the Keeper Daydream card. Take a picture of it and
tag it. Tag it on Instagram. Hashtag KYD gum. I think you gotta come check it out and you gotta
come visit it and of course you gotta see if the KYD card is up there on the wall but you can't
stay here for longer than like five to seven minutes because it starts you start feeling a
little gross. You like want to wash your feet. You want to just let you want to get out. That
wall was just scraped less than a year ago because the city said no more so they power
washed it and they scraped it off and a local walked by and he said literally this like popped
back out overnight. Okay we are now in West Seattle. Trish take it away.
So uh that's it. That's what I got. That's what I got. Okay you do the rest.
Welcome to West Seattle. If you don't know the Seattle area then you are only
slightly below us because we do not know the area very well but we do know
that we made the most out of today and Seattle is fantastic and if you can't have a car and you
come over the bridge and you come to West Seattle you can drive and see the whole Seattle landscape
the cityscape it is gorgeous and then you come around the corner and you see water you see
people having fun on the beach you see a little tiny statue of Statue of Liberty which is hilarious
and there's all these little restaurants and these ferries going back and forth which are
feels like a boardwalk yet it's like a whole town place is a ton of fun and watching them
throw fish having the boys catch the fish was absolutely a riot but well having Carson catch
a fish that's right Caleb did eventually catch one he did he did a good job that's only because
the guys talked to him and they said you were committed if you were committed you would have
caught that fish and then he caught it he's like okay I'm gonna go catch the fish and boom he
caught the fish if you hang out in pike space long enough you eventually get like you get
it's like all right I gotta get out of here yes yeah and so but it was really neat but it
has been fun so now we're gonna head back into Tacoma area and we're gonna get ready to head
up the coast and jump on one of these ferries in a couple days to head over to Victoria oh my god
it'll be super fun so we're gonna go up to Anacortes we're gonna go up to Anacortes we're
