Thanks for watching! I always wonder if anyone out there watches those or if it’s just me practicing telling stories with pictures:}. Jordie did that in his DJ days. I’ll tell him you liked it. I appreciate your sweet comment. XO

I have taken this exact journey minus the Cannery Hotel. I came very close to buying a ukulele at The Drift Inn. I must have been a little drunk because I made that uke sing (and I don’t play). Next time I’m going to find out if it was me or the uke who has talent! Be sure the try Whale Cove Inn in Depoe Bay someday. They have outdoor bathtubs on the decks of the oceanfront rooms. It’s extraordinary! Love you!!!

I think I remember when you made that trek. Such beautiful, rugged coastline which feels so untouched. We saw that place in Depoe Bay and had I known about outdoor bathing, I’d have been there! We’ll check it out. But you must go to Astoria and the Cannery Hotel. It’s so cozy and unique. That Drift Inn was quite a place and I’m sure it was YOU with the talent. Love you, too!!!

Thank you dear Jamie, for your commitment to this weekly missive. I’m a fan! I love Kai 💙. I’m in Vegas—what a place. I think I’d prefer Astoria.

Vegas, Baby. It’s a whole thing. The last time I was there I was a maid of honor in my bff’s wedding (20 years ago!) It’s a very FULL place, quite different than sleepy Astoria. Thanks for being a fan, weekly reader, and loving Kai! He loves you, too! Btw, the Eagles was Mike and my first band of music we agreed on, and all we listened to for about 5 years:) We’ve since expanded our appreciation of a vaster playlist.
