Seattle Wall of Gum

Posted on October 10, 2009 by Randy

What? Seattle has a giant wall covered in so much used gum that it has become famous? You’re kidding me right? I’m disgusted, and yet intrigued kind of like the feeling I get when seeing a glorious Joe dirt style mullet. I’m completely shocked that we didn’t hear about this while we were in Seattle. … Continue reading »

Seaside to Seattle

Posted on July 15, 2009 by Randy

We woke up and got on the road from our cute little Boat Theme Room after a good nights sleep (read: we slept in). Along the way we passed a sign for the Lews and Clark National Park. We’d seen stuff all over with the Lewis and Clark names on it and we figured this … Continue reading »
