La Push Baby... It's La Push! Part Two

WARNING: This post is pic heavy!!!

So here I am with part two of my visit to La Push... well, my FIRST visit. You see this place is SO MUCH MORE than the gorgeous, life-force-recharging place that I showed you in yesterday's post. It is actually quite the destination. With a resort, cabin rentals, fishing charters and tribal activities (I missed the evening's drum circle bonfire... DANG IT), this place has plenty to offer to fill up an entire vacation. I intend to return and stay for awhile; one day was just not enough!

Ok, this place blows Starbucks out of the water! The morning necessity for coffee mixed with some Twilight handsome hunk fun equals Jacob's Java. Sure to morph you in ten seconds flat! hahahahaha! WHY isn't this place nation-wide yet???

This one is just a revisit of the beauty I showed you in yesterday's post. Check out that water!!!

The forest seemed to encapsulate La Push. Do you see where the shadow line is? It seemed like that line was EXACTLY the same when we arrived at La Push as when we left. It was like that shadow line was the portal to my own personal fairy tale.

Along with the resort itself, there are MANY cabin rentals available at La Push. Here are a few we drove by...

This is just really, really funny! :)

Gratuitous forest pic... hahahahahaha! You know I had to do it!!!

Ok, that's it for my visit to La Push. Stay tuned for my visit to Forks and the world of Twilight!!!

Past 7 Days....

RIP My Friend

I think this is what drowning feels like. I lost a friend yesterday. And I'm afraid that I am just having a very hard time finding the words to express what the world lost. I'm having a hard time KNOWING she's gone. I just can't believe that Trisha Giallella died yesterday. I've known Trish for a large chunk of my life; she was the sister of my sister's ex husband. But for all the years that I knew her, I never REALLY knew her until very recently. Oh sure, over the years I would listen in awe at all her stories.... stories of making movies in Hollywood, the wild parties and dating Rick James. To a young girl of 15, those stories seemed like something from TV itself and far removed from my own piddly little life. The fact that she even shared her stories with me sent me into a stuper. I always had stars in my eyes when I listened to Trish talk, she was so glamorous and very, very tough... very passionate and good at "living". I...

So Lame

So over at Paper Vineyard, the challenge was to create a birthday project and it COULDN'T be a card. I've personally been creating WAY too many cards lately so I was happy to try my hand at something new..... only I didn't. :( Instead, I was busy preparing for last week's Cricut Swarm. Now, while I missed creating a project specifically for our Birthday Non-Card challenge, I figured the cupcake box that I made would fit the bill PERFECTLY for a birthday-themed project. The box also has an insert for a cupcake to fit inside. I made it with my Cricut (cuz of the whole Cricut Swarm bit) and while I ADORE this box, I sort of had a little melt down making it and I decided that this is the last Provo Craft product I will ever buy.... let me share why (read through to find out the cartridge I used for this project)! Most of you know that I DESPISE Provo Craft. I hate that the Cricut is a one-of-kind product that I loved....

Goodbye and Hello

It has been a LONG time since I've suffered a loss that has shattered my heart to pieces, but I recently had to say goodbye to my 13 year old black lab baby. His name was Sunny and he really was the light of my life. We got him at the pound the day AFTER the pound neutered him at 5 weeks old!!! Needless to say, 2 days after we brought him home, the vet bill was already a whopping $900. Turns out that the surgery was quite difficult for him for two reasons: 1) he was way too young for it in the first place and 2) he had contracted valley fever from whatever environment he had come from. These two variables culminated to him breathing vomit during his surgery and developing asphyxiated pneumonia. The little cough that I noted while spending time with him at the pound developed into a VIOLENT cough over the next 48 hours. After two weeks of treatments from the vet, dropping him off at the vet each morning and then taking him home e...
