Oh Edward!

When I first went toWashington to leave Tren for work, back in early January, I had just started reading Twilight (book one of the four book saga). After sitting in the airport for my 3 hour delayed plane, I nearly finished this first book. So. I became "obessed". I am now on book 4 and almost done! I did my research and discovered all the places, Port Angeles, Forks and LaPush are all within 2 hours driving time of Tren's new home. Heavenly Day!! So, on my visit I just made to Washington this last weekend, we made Saturday "Twilight Day". We headed out around 11 and our first stop was Port Angeles. We only zipped by the port and headed out.



Next stop? FORKS WASHINGTON where the hometown of the books is written about. I was so excited! Tren... not so much. As we got within miles of the town, his hissing at me began (the vampires in the movie hissed/growled at danger or anger). Yes. Yes. It was funny at first, but then I just got annoyed with him.



(please note the tourists getting their pic taken with the sign) Forks was definitely a small town, with one road as the main strip. We are driving down the strip and I see this!!:



I thought I was going to jump out of the car! Tren saw what I was squealing at and said "I am not going in there". But, he turned the truck around and we did go in! The store had tons of little collector things. Clothes that said things like "My boyfriend glitters" or "Team Edward" or "Team Jabob". There were little phrases that were on blocks of wood and they had little charms for a charm bracelet. They had so much stuff I can't list it all. I got myself and Annie a little something (I can't be specific as she has not received it yet). And then I got myself a black shot glass that said "twilight Forks, WA" in white writing in the twilight font. This store would have been 100 times better if Tren wasn't the one following me around and bringing me down. Annie and I will be going back someday and the store will be the experience it should be!

After the Twilight store we went and had pizza at a place there in Forks and then headed on to LaPush. Again, Tren is hissing at me and saying he keeps seeing Edward running in the trees along side us. He had too much fun mocking me. As we got to the city limits, I'm assuming, there was this:



For those of you who have read the books, you understand and will probably chuckle at this sign. I will do a separate post of LaPush...

I have to say that I do complain about Tren hissing and being a party pooper, but he was such a good sport in taking me there to see all this ridiculous stuff. When we were in the store he was asking me what things meant that you would only understand if you had read the books. And he also remembered things, like where Jacob 'came' from, from the movie. I was surprised at his questions because I thought all he was doing during the movie was trying to come up with jokes about vampires or hissing at me. On to LaPush...
