Memorable Weekend


Wow, did I have a great weekend. Once again, there are just not enough hours in the day nor days in the weekend, even a three day weekend! We all went to Gearheart, OR to go clamming. Those Hominids were practically jumping into our buckets. What fun and good eating. The little cottages we rented were awesome to say nothing of the couple who run the place. It's called Gearheart Ocean Inn. Kathleen and Roy couldn't have been nicer and more welcoming. We spent our first evening with them and many of their friends at a huge bonfire on the beach. Lots of fun and wine, unfortunately it didn't make getting up early the next morning to dig clams any easier. Monday, however, was a total blessing. After sleeping in, the sun woke us up and just as we were pouring our first cup of coffee, got a call....get your buckets and guns an come down to the beach, there're clams all over. 1.5 hours later, another 3 limits. Yummers!
Cant wait to do that again.

Getting back into the swing of things.......

Obviously I haven't been paying much attention to the blog.  I've had a lot of adventures, good and bad since the last time I posted.  I can't believe May is almost over.  My baby has turned 24!  We had a wonderful seafood fest for him.  On our way back from Lake Quinault in Washington, we stopped and bought some fresh oysters, smoked oyster and razor clams.  Yummy.  Seafood is Morgan's favorite.  Grandma brought an icecream cake and with a shot of Absinthe after dinner, he had a very happy birthday.
My other son has recently returned from a 2 week tour of the west coast with his rock band.  He had a great, but exhausting time.
I've recently spent some time in Las Vegas, won virtually nothing, but had an excellent time.  Lots of sunshine and relaxation.
I'm hoping to get back into blogging on a more regular basis.
I'm baaaacccck!
