Forest Grove

Nothing really special to report today.  Eddie and I went to the gym this morning then to Men's Warehouse for him to get fitted for his tux for Sean & Heather's wedding in San Diego next month.  Then we headed out to Forest Grove where we had lunch at El Torero because I had an Entertainment Book coupon.  They have no website and the reviews on Yelp are not good so I won't link them, but Eddie and I enjoyed the food.  Granted, I only had a plain cheese quesadilla.  Despite the bad reviews, Eddie and I enjoyed our meal.  We shared chips and a margarita before eating our entrees.  After lunch we had a wine tasting at Montinore Estate where I just applied for a job.  Their tasting room is beautiful and their wines are pretty good.  Keeping my fingers crossed about the job...

We didn't do anything special tonight but we did watch the 2-hour special from Deadliest Catch.    Tonight's episode was the second-to-last of the season and also the special episode that they attributed to Captain Phil Harris' life.  I cried quite a bit during the episodes tonight.  I believe it is impossible to watch Deadliest Catch without being drawn to Captain Phil.  He was a special man.  Wish I could have had the pleasure of actually knowing him, but so glad Discovery Chanel was able to capture his last few years on this planet to share them with the rest of us.

Oh yeah.  I also wore my cowboy boots today (third time this week).  If you don't already own a pair, I highly recommend you get out and purchase some.  They feel so good to wear - at least once you get used to their tight feel.  They force you to walk with attitude and confidence and I love it!
