The North Bend world

Saturday, November 18th, 2006

So who knows where North Bend is? I mean that was my question as well. Where the hell is North Bend? That is really how I got up here. I had to go out of my comfort zone and travel to find a town that is nessled between two large mountains, stark beautiful trees and rivers. I am sitting in a resturant that has wireless and having a morning Bloody Mary thinking wow this is great.
Mike lives in North Bend. His house is on a river that you can hear ever so faintly in the house. It is a stunning, clear river that had ducks floating down it this morning. Last night we went to an adorable wine bar and had carmel creme brulee. Yum. And apparently this is the home of Twin Peaks as well. Wow you learn so much when you step outside of your immediate circle. Have a great weekend.
Love

oops I forgot a few things that have happened. Ha what a fool.

I got a call from Mike (that damn fine man) one sunday afternoon. He was in Hawaii for a friends wedding and was staying longer after the wedding was over. So on this sunday he asked me to fly to Hawaii.
I blushed on the other end of the line and said no way silly boy I am not jet setting off to Hawaii with a man I barely even know. He said oh come on I will pay for your ticket. I said no thank you I will pay for my own ticket. He said you could come on Tuesday and leave with me on Saturday. I thought to myself this man in out of his mind. I mean truely what person invites someone they barley know to a beautiful tropical island? That person is definitly Mike.

So I got on the horn with the entire circle of friends and they all said I was the crazy one for not going. My mother without hesitation said yes. My boss and dear friend said leave know we will cover your shifts and my dear Alaskan friend said are you seriously considering not going. Lindsay you are an idiot. Okay Okay I get the hint…… I will go.

He booked my flight and the next day I was at the Honolulu airport uniting with him and his friends. Wow that was intense. Oh yah I got lei’ed as well. Ha

It was a beautiful trip and it was such a delightful 3rd date. What a way to really get to know someone. I feel very fortunate to have had such a charmed experience.
