Loving it here in WA
I’m currently enjoying a leisure Sunday with my two buddies, Whitney and Chris, in the beautiful state of Washington. I’m not exactly sure how Paul is going to convince me to go back to Utah but this will be one of the best vacations I have ever had. We didn’t take many pictures on the trip up but the one we did take makes me realize Paul and I often don’t take serious pictures.We planned to take off at 4 or 5 Friday morning but by Thursday afternoon I was packed and ready to go. I texted Paul and asked if he was packed and since he wasn’t I had to contain myself. We shared a pizza and then went to see Wolverine at 9:45, after which I told Paul that if he had been packed I would have suggested us leaving right then…yes I love road trips this much. That suggestion got us on the road at 1 or 2; at this point in time I do not remember those details.
My wonderfully horrible sense of direction, and a failed google map, brought us into Long Beach, Washington around 6 or 7 Friday night. Paul’s family is camping this weekend and I was able to stay the first night there on the beach with them. They are such amazing people and I enjoyed every minute of my time with them.
We took a trick kite out to the beach and I, of course, was a pro in no time. Ok maybe not but I enjoyed watching Chad, the real pro. Paul almost took out a couple of people but picked it up pretty quickly.
We went to one of the lighthouses, another first for me. I absolutely love them but I had never actually seen one.
Paul’s dad cooked some really delicious food for breakfast and then we went back to the beach for more kite flying time. Paul and Chad took me to this cave you can only see during low tide and we did some climbing. I of course was stalling because I didn’t want to leave Long Beach but eventually I said goodbye and made my way to Whit and Chris.
I’m currently in Bothell and, no offense to Whitney and Chris; I’m wishing I were back on the beach.I ju
I enjoy reading what visitors say about this place when they blog. They aren’t popping up steam to write a review (good or bad) on a site like TripAdvisor.com. They’re just sharing their experience and it’s so…honest.
