Goodbye Port Angeles, Hello Eugene


Another assignment under our belt.  It was unfortunate that our visit here in Port Angeles ended five weeks premature, but things happen for a reason.  If it wasn't for this assignment, we would have never taken the chance to visit the Olympic National Park and North Cascades National Park.  It was a great place to call home for two months.  Both National Parks are the least visited per year due to their location, so with the lack of crowds they were perfect weekend getaways.  Thank you Fitness West and the Port Angeles Tennis Club, you kept us in shape.  We enjoyed the company of coworkers weekly at Bar9.  A great crew to work with at Crestwood Nursing Home.  Sad to leave them behind, happy to move on out from the nursing home. Thank you to our neighbor Paul, who shared stories of his very colorful past.  When Paul was younger he had a pet bear and use to carry 50 gallons drum of gasoline over his shoulders.  The first time he shook my hand he almost broke all my sweet supple falanges. Strong 89 year old man.
