Troll Haven is a pretty cool place to check out. There are so many carvings there to look at. I’ll post some more pictures tomorrow of it.

Landscaping at the Longhouse
Nice landscaping we saw at the Longhouse done by O N A Landscaping.
The Longhouse Market and Deli
The Jamestown S’Klallam Longhouse Market and Deli is next to the casino. Tip for visitors, fill up here before coming to town. Gas prices the night we stopped by were almost 4o cents per gallon cheaper than in town (which is only five miles away).
Carved art
A cool carving we saw up Taylor Cutoff Road. They had several in their yard, as did the neighbor. I admire the skill it takes to create something like that.
Come back
When I went shopping, this little nugget of cuteness was in the car next to me just howling away. Not barking, just full out howls…must have been lonely. But when I’d talk to him (or her) it would quiet down and just stare. Grocery shopping is probably my least enjoyed chore so I welcome little disturbances like that. On those quizzes or questions that ask would you rather have a maid or a cook…neither for me, I’d pick grocery shopper.

Pretty pests
Dandelions seem to be everywhere right now! Last week I dug up all that were on our back property and yellow. Two days later you’d never known I dug any up, there were yellow heads everywhere. Driving around I see them everywhere.
