This the view out of our window tonight in the Silver Cloud Inn Tacoma. We almost stayed at the one in Mukilteo, but opted for the B & B instead. Tonight was the Inn’s weekly hosted wine & cheese reception, so Donna and I went down and noshed with some other guests before walking over to the Harbor Lights restaurant for dinner. If you ever find yourself in Tacoma’s Old Town section don’t bother eating there. Service was not that good and the food was just OK, definitely not worth what we paid.
The drive up from Cannon Beach was not as interesting as the drive down, even though we managed to get on a dead end road and had to back track again. It was a cloud and misty day, so when we stopped at the Mt. St. Helen’s Visitor’s Center I didn’t even take a picture of the famous volcano as it looked a lot like any other mountain off in the mist. Getting just about tired of driving, we also opted out of driving the 47 miles (one way) to get to a closer vantage point.
Tomorrow, the thought is to try and see the Museum of Glass on the way to the airport, but they don’t open until 10:00 AM and with our flight leaving at 1:00 PM it might be cutting it close. We may just drive to the airport and wait on a plane and that would be a shame, but missing the flight would be a bigger one (unless the Oregon or Washington lottery tickets hit on Wednesday night.)
