Pacific Northwest Road Trip - Day 6



Got to Rick's a little later then expected but once we were there we had breakfast and once again Rick's wife Amy made some build your own breakfast burritos, which were very delicious.

Since Tess and Daisy hadn't been getting along with each other, we put a muzzle on Daisy and introduced the two dogs slowly... they managed to tolerate each other. So there are chances that the two might mange to get along with each other after all.

The first thing we did was head to Westport to see Pacific Ocean in Washington. We climbed up the Jetty and took some amazing pix and lots of great video. Next we walked along the docks and Rick and I picked up some sinfully delicious fudge and salt water taffy. After that we stopped at a non-functioning light house.

After the light house adventure went to check out a beach. This was our first visit to a beach in Washington and Daisy's first visit to a beach ever, since there are only a few beaches in LA county that allow dogs. The beach was really great...a little different than SoCal beaches. On the SoCal beaches the sand is a little lighter. This beach had quite a nice amount of driftwood, something you don't see on the LA beaches. First Daisy wasn't to sure about the entire thing, but warmed up very quickly and absolutely enjoyed her time at the beach and wasn't too thrilled when we were leaving.

After the beach adventure, we drove back to Aberdeen to check out a Star Wars Store. I have heard about the Star Wars store for years from Rick so it was awesome to actually see the store in person. It was everything I had expected.. lots of things that I have had/seen over the years. Lots of used toys and some very cool promotional things that I had never seen before. I could have spent hours in the store and still not see everything. I did pick up a poster and put a request in for another cool poster. I'm thinking about getting some Star Wars plates.. have to decide by tomorrow.

After the Star Wars Store we went to Dairy Queen for a rather late lunch. Next we picked up some groceries at Walmart and headed back to Ricks house. After a first few tense moments, Daisy and Tess sniffed each other and started to get along with each other. Well they weren't exactly best buddies, but Daisy tolerated Tess for most part. Tess kept following her around and Daisy was kinda fine with it. Sometimes Daisy got a little annoyed with it but other than that she was fine. So there is definitely hope for our dog.

We hung out at Ricks house for about 1 1/2, then dinner was served. Rick's wife Amy prepared her famous Tater Tot Casserole... I had heard about this for years and I was really hoping to experience it while I was here and I was not disappointed... it was absolutely delicious. As desert Amy and Cathrine prepared an Apple Crisps and it was soooooo sweet.

After dinner we hung out with the Moyers and then took a walk at Friends Landing. It's a man made lake, it's a 1 mile hike around it. After we got back we hung out with the Moyers till about 10 pm. It was another AWESOME day with The Moyers
