Fall City, WA

We've been watching Twin Peaks.  I can't get enough of it.  Netflix is fast, but I'm so impatient!  Actually considering buying it, it is that great.  Anyway, today we drove up to Snoqualmie Falls and unfortunately it was covered in fog!  Argh!  And it was sunny in the city!  That was a good laugh.  On the way back through Fall City we stopped in at the saloon in the middle of town called the Last Frontier Tavern.  What a place! What a dive!  It was a great stop.  I'm pretty sure that I will get a beer there every time I'm in Fall City (which, counting this trip, is one time so far).  The tavern is old, with little pieces of time hung from the ceilings and walls.  Old boxing gloves, roller skates, punching bag, old beer cans strung together, old pictures, a vending machine where you can buy a ballpoint pen for a quarter, are all scattered about with countless other things.  It was cool.  The people in there are what you can expect-  friendly, talkative, already drunk and not leaving anytime soon and it's 4:30.  haha.  It was pretty fun, and entertaining for sure.  

Guess I'll have to adventure back to the falls sometime this spring or summer when the fog will be clear!  This is what it looks like on the show, and real life too I suppose ;)

2009 is going to be good....and a new Pavement reissue!!!





It's been a while since I last posted.  Happy New Year, 2009, it's been great so far.  Went to the coast last weekend and got drenched looking for glass floats!  It was messy and fabulous.  Left my wallet in a cab on New Year's at 3 in the morning after a long night and got it back in ten minutes by the same cab driver!  Amazing so far.  Hope everyone out there reading this (one person maybe, ha) is also having a great year so far.

AND.......
Pavement reissue!  wOOt!!  Brighten the Corners.  With 29 new tracks!  Stokage.  I realize not everyone is a Pavement fan, but I'm a very happy lady.  2009 is going to be a good year.
