WANDA

In my mysterious world, I seldom have days off from work, and even less days off without my children. Some how through a serious of otherwise annoying and unfortunate events, I ended up with a Saturday free to do as I please. I know it might seem like the only place I ever venture to is Astoria, and really... I guess that is the only place I go, but I love it there. Toma and I got a very late start to the day and made the hour and a half trek to the Mouth of the Columbia, where Team Jessup also happened to be for the weekend! Before leaving Toma took some outfit shots of my very Wanda-from-Crybaby-esque attire. I find myself often channeling Traci Lords a la 90's rockabilly style. Toma often finds himself taking pictures that should probably not make the cut on the blog as seen by image number 2.




In Astoria we did the obligatory sight seeing that accompanies most trips to this location. Lunch at Fort George (YUM!) and Oogling at Vintage Hardware (Spectacular!)
If you ever roll through the streets of Astoria make sure to stop in at Vintage Hardware, which is located in a decaying turn of the century hotel. There are tons and tons and tons of old artifacts and what-not-ery for your hearth and home. Also, it serves for a very unique blog photo backdrop.






I am glad to have spent a lovely free day with Team Jessup and their beautiful Astoria home. And while we were in town we stopped by the Lunar Boy art gallery, where Toma submitted some of his current art. They liked it! It appears he has been offered a spot for a few pieces this coming October. Our life is so abundantly full of tiny blessings.



Until the next time Astoria, Its been real.
