Coco visits the beach!

I am heartbroken. Conan O'Brien was a mere mile from my home and didn't visit me!

Nancy Gorshe for Hospital Commish

Our friend and neighbor (co-owner with her husband of The Depot Restaurant) Nancy Gorshe is running for the Hospital Board.

She is a Health Care Executive and we are very fortunate to have such a professional in our community.

I suggested she hold a meet and greet for our local 'Women in Business' group - and Chef Michael made some tasty treats. Brett and I walked down the drive (and YES it is raining) to The Depot Restaurant Patio.


(When i say 'suggested'... you should know that I volunteered her. I am sort of pushy that way.)

You can read more about Nancy on her campaign website HERE.

Fun video of a trip to our beach area!

Miracle story - Boy brought back to life after drowning in local ocean.

Boy brought back to life after drowning in the ocean, Cranberry beach approach- Long Beach, WA

Our local (award winning) photojournalist, Damian Mulinix, heard the tone of the surf rescue and headed out to the beach. He captured some amazing photos that tell an incredible story.

The man carrying the boy is local Seaview - Box K Auto Repair owner - Doug Knutzen.

Check out the story on Damian's personal blog HERE.

Warning: the surf here is very dangerous. Don't go swimming.

So sad that this seems to be a theme this summer.
