Day 9 update - July 27th




From Seattle we decided to explore some of the back roads of Washinton almost all the way to the Oregon border. We went through a town called South Bend which proclaims itself to be the Oyster capital of the world! Well, we couldn't resist. We stopped for lunch at a place where a man was cooking oysters over a wood fire in an oil drum. The guy was hysterical, he would only serve one table at a time, and until their food was cooked and on the table, he wouldn't take another order. While we were waiting he turned several people away! Too funny! So, we waited, sweated like crazy, and eventually ate the best oysters we have ever tasted, and Lynn found a pearl in one of hers (see pics). They were out of this world. We finally ended up in Port Angeles, way up north in Washinton state.

  1. Please tell me you did not stop in Port A! (A for Armpit)! But then again, you guys would find a way to enjoy even that!
    Must've been HOT down in desert country! Did you have some Oregon Pinot??
