Seattle

We left Westport and Drove through Aberdeen ( birth place of Curt Cobain.) We had a dangerous lunch at Betty's Kitchen "Home Cookin"  Betty's home must have been a scary place. Betty's was a bar with parking spaces for motor cycles. We went in and were charmed by Betty who was the waitress and at least 85. We should have left when she described a sandwich that contained a deep fried pork chop. The food was like special effects from a B quality horror flick. At least 3 ingredients were a MYSTERY.
Before I left Westport I placed a Craigs list ad for a traveling handy man/mechanic to repair our tail pipe. Before lunch was over we had an appointment with Troy. We landed and an hour latter Troy was here.
We talked about Hogans Hero episodes - All in the Family episodes - Stan Ridgeway ( a school chum from Bakersfield) Where his dad was shoot down in France during the second world war and was saved by the French resistance. He talked non stop from under the RV as I stood in the narrow street to direct cars away from his legs. It took an hour and half and 50 bucks but he did a good job.
Tonight we have dinner with our friends Animal and Bennett and then look for a legal place to put the RV.
