Forks & Sol Duc
... got squealy-excited...we went to the tourist information bureau which has no actual information other than that related to Twilight. Laura got really huffy when I wouldn't pose with some stupid cardboard cutouts of Robert Pattinson and Kristin Stewart but I was feeling genuinely sick with all the **** that they had there. We drove through the actual town of Forks itself and it is a pure shithole. It's so run down its unreal, and the only shops ...

It's not the Destination...
... to The Point!” How far? About a mile! OK! I remounted during what was a constant rain now. I gingerly guided Bonnie toward the route he gave. A mile, it was 4.5 miles to Cape Flattery.
