all right we be heading out onto the road Jax you're gonna recline for a
little bit Jax is gonna recline for a little bit we're gonna hit the open road
today there's a festival all weekend going on in Westport Washington a quirky
sounding festival so we got to put on some miles and get out there I'd never
been out to Westport in my life never never been that way another Beach
coastal town you guys are welcome to follow Jax and I on this trip here we go
well here we are I just I don't know for sure
I did find a place to park the RV here in West Fort Washington
little open field they're actually still clearing it out in Boeing it's gonna be
an overflow parking lot for this big event this big pirate event a couple RVs
scattered through here but all the RV parks are full so like I said I don't
know if there's a city ordinance banning RVs in Westport or not it's a three day
free event and I want to check it out over the course of three days so I think
I may try to boondock here and just see if anybody kicks me out tonight there is
the Aberdeen Wal Mart 22 miles away from here way off the coast this is right on
the coast but yeah just getting settled here it's gonna be 61 degrees here for a
high at the beach Jax is going to come downtown with me to to see the event but
right now I want to go look at the water first again this is the newly mowed
overflow parking area which is free and across the street here is the $35 a
night RV park that looks identical which is full so I mean I'm just making this
up as I go guys I'm gonna try to get as much out of today as I can in case I get
asked to leave and don't come back tomorrow or Sunday I need to get on the
other side of these rocks because I want to see the Pacific Ocean over there so
there's some climbing involved here
and ah there we go back not quite Keywest like but an ocean nonetheless my
first time in Westport so this is the 18th annual rusty scooper scooper scoop

day so she does leave and come back at times but right now she's closed they're
getting ready to go back out I have seen this ship about half dozen times around
he just sound but the better hanging system that tired ship there
and here's the front of it I think it's supposed to be a mermaid there on the
front darn it maybe I'll come back later we can go aboard it so I don't think the
crowds are that big on the first day Friday like any event it actually ends
at 6 p.m. tonight and it ends at 10 p.m. tomorrow night so a little shorter
condensed version people are just kind of getting set up want to go check out
this tower up here so we can get a good view of the water yeah there's the
Westport marina tower let's go check it out this is like the weirdest
wheelchair-accessible tower ever there's a wheelchair ramp that leads to nowhere
stairs down stairs up no elevator okay that's it's definitely just a walking
tower oh did that water anybody else think these look like a face if there
was a smile right here this guy would be smiling at us right and I see him things
here yeah I see a face here we are up at the top
Pacific Ocean out there on the other side here's a downtown west work and
there's the event all along this road and I'm parked back behind that or be
Park over there I'm just really leaving this one up in
the air because I don't know if I'm allowed to spend Lee this town is for
RVs and it's a special event so I just don't know but I'm gonna go back to the
RV and finish up my night with Jackson there just a little guy
perfecto I am back Jax is that front I think yeah cuz him so crash yes he I'm
so precious staying cool with the windows open and the cross Breeze in the
fantastic vent fan going here and the normal vent fan in the bathroom like I
said it wasn't hot today it has not been hot for the last 4 or 5 days 60 it
hasn't even hit 65 once in the last five days here on the coast it's just like
perfect summer weather go back to Olympia 60 70 miles east and there they
hit I think 88 degrees today so a huge
difference in temperature since I'm parked for the night I'm gonna try a new
barley pop here from it's a local from Snoqualmie Pass Brewing Company brewing
brewing I can't even say that word but I'm sober avalanche Winter Ale mm-hmm oh
that's delicious you wouldn't like it whoo that's got some pop to it actually
let me step outside to as you know I kind of parked away from everybody to
have my own little spot over here earlier in the day and I noticed that
this truck camper camper and some stuff parked next to me and I asked him if he
was planning on camping overnight as well and he said yes he did it last year
in the same spot with no problem so that's why I'm feeling a little more
confident tonight somebody parked next to me who's who's done this before I cut
away with it so I think we're gonna be okay and that way I can be right back
out here at 10 a.m. tomorrow to see some of the other festivities and live music
shows and I don't know we'll just see what happens
so it's a little later in the evening actually it's 9:50 p.m. I love the
