If you felt a small quake yesterday, that was just me falling down in the bathtub at the Chateau Westport. I got a nice gash over my eye, and there is a little discoloration today.
I've become used to the shower we have at home, which is a stall with a door and a nice non-skid floor. I'd forgotten that I need to be much more careful in a shower that is also a regular bathtub. The tub had non-skid strips. but my foot managed to slide right down the space in between two of them.
Joshua and I were down there because it was his turn to go on a trip with me, and there was one final razor clam tide for spring. He may have been the only person in the entire hotel not to hear the thundering boom of me landing on my face in the tub - he was far too engrossed in whatever cartoon he was watching at the time on the TV. He didn't even seem phased by the sight of his naked, bleeding, soaking wet father staggering out of the bathroom with a stunned look on his face.
Good times......good times.
Actually, the rest of the trip was very fun. We climbed the Grays Harbor lighthouse to the very top. We dined at Grayland's finest eatery, the Mutineer. We went swimming not once but twice in the pool at the hotel - before I tried to break my face of course.
And the weather was spectacular, sunny and very little wind. We easily limited out on clams. This trip was very different than the one Corwin and I did just a mere three weeks prior where it snowed on us. That was a brutal trip, with the temperature in the 30's and a wind of at least 30 mph coming straight off the water. It was so cold even the clams went into hiding.
I just want to give a shout-out to my three faithful readers. Thanks, and I love you guys!
