Where I live
As some of you know I live in Forks Washington on the Olympic Peninsula. I would not trade this place to live anywhere else in the world. Yes its a small town, but that in my book is one of the best things about living here. Anyhoo I was on You Tube and typed in Forks Washington, and found a couple of cool links and I thought I would share.
Some good pictures of the area done in a slide show by someone. Nice work.

Drag races, new to the area since last year, lots of fun and for $5.00 for all day you can't beat that. This is located about 1/4 of a mile from my house. People are coming from all over the state and beyond. Watch the guy in the *****'s car, he is a friend of mine. 900 Hp but can be bumped up to 2500, its crazy.

Sweet I found a video of some guy that rode a motorcycle through Forks, check it out. Sorry if this is boring to any folks out there, its just exciting to see other people enjoying the area that I take for granted sometimes. Good music too for that video. Oh by the way that building is an old cedar shake mill that was abandoned at least 20 years ago, I know exactly where that is 60 miles south of Forks.

Steelhead fishing on one of the local rivers,and another good choice in music. That's the fishing I do with my boat.

Watch this one, very nice.....why can't I catch fish like that? I must be spending too much time eating sandwiches and drinking coffee.

RE: Where I live
Oh there's plenty of tourists to go around, but when the rain starts they all scatter back to wherever, besides it good for the economy since logging has declined a lot in the last 15 years.

RE: Where I live
Right on deej, and so true about the rain, tourists and the logging industry! I left my small locale due to the industry. Miss the Steelhead fishing and the elk hunting too!
I am thinking about doing another road trip to anecortes again this year in Sept.
