The Summer of '14 - Ocean Shores, WA: Day 27 - Westport, WA

Nothing exciting. This is more of a "proof of life" entry. First we'll start with a bar update:

Mike's Seafood Happy Hour

Note that we've had another laundry day so I'm back to my pickup truck sweatshirt for the week.

Homeport Happy Hour

In addition to hitting new bars, it appears I'm becoming a regular at some places. Last time I went into the Porthole Pub the barmaid asked, "Pabst Blue Ribbon?" It's not that I love PBR. It just happens to be, by far, their cheapest beer.

We made a trip from Ocean Shores to Westport. A little geography here. Ocean Shores is on a peninsula forming the northern portion of the entrance to Gray's Harbor. Westport is on a peninsula forming the southern portion of the entrance to Gray's Harbor. There is about a mile of open water across the harbor entrance. Unfortunately it's about a 52-mile each way drive around the harbor to get from one town to another.

One reason for the trip was to meet up with Terry's brother and sister-in-law who brought their horses for a ride on the beach.

The other reason was to see Westport. Where Ocean Shores was set up to be a resort and summer home community, Wesport is a working fishing community with some tourism thrown in. You better like a constant fishy smell if you go to Westport.
