Ponderosa Falls

Arrived here on August 1 in Cheney, Washington for 5 nights.  This park has full hookups including 50 amp electric, water, and sewer.  Located just west of Spokane, Washington and Coeur d'Alene, Idaho.   We had good over the air TV and cell service.  We paid $11 per night through our RPI membership.  I rate this park P****.  

We stopped at a truck wash to wash the motorhome on the way here and they flooded our refrigerator vent and it stopped working.  Norcold has a bypass installed to protect unit from fire.  I could not reset it and tried for several hours to try to bypass the system.  Had no luck and no mobile RV tech in the area would return my call.  Les, the onsite maintenance supervisor assisted me in bypassing the system and we saved our food and freezer meats from defrosting.  

We took a day trip to Sandpoint, Idaho which was 3.5 hours round trip.  We found an area for Buddy to go for a swim with another golden retriever.  No ducks around, so I let him go free.  We wandered around this cute town for a while and then drove south and found a park with boat launch.  We had a little picnic and on the way home we picked up a pizza in Spokane to eat in the motorhome.
