Not so horsey

Back from a wonderful vacation with my best friend from high school. We "geeked" out and did a "Twilight Weekend" up in Forks, Washington. Twilight is a series of books written by Stephanie Meyer about vampires and werewolves living amongst humans in the Northern most tip of Washington. We both enjoyed the books and thought, "What the heck!" "Let's go check it out!" I would have never found La Push, Washington otherwise. What an amazing beach...I want to ride my horse there! I am not sure if you can "trailer in" on a reservation. I will have to do some research:-) The Quileute Indians supposedly descended from wolves, so Meyer based her werewolf stuff on the tribe. We did find lots of wolf-like tracks on the beach....interesting:-) For those that have read the books, we ate mushroom ravioli in Port Angeles, saw Bella's truck, went to see where Dr. Cullen worked, visited Forks high school, went to both the Cullen and Swan house, and even found the La Push/Forks Treaty line! Nerds...I know, but we had a great time. So good to catch up with my friend and feel like we were 15 again.
