1997 twin peaks vacation

among the many hours of video blah blah i just pulled out of storage was one prize cassette of a pilgrimage to snoqualmie, north bend, and fall city WA, primary locations for the Twin Peaks TV series and the feature film Fire Walk With Me. did a semi-kerplunk bang job editing two small vids from the cassette, and here they are, case anybody stumbling on them likes watching TP geek material.

in these two parts creep shots of the Double-R Diner (Mar-T-Cafe/Twede’s), Great Northern Hotel (Salish Lodge), Snoqualmie Falls, Roadhouse (Colonial Inn), Big Ed’s Gas Farm, Twin Peaks Sheriff’s Station, the railroad trestle, and more. part 2 is somewhat redundant, but shot during the day.

my traveling pal for this trip was a lass i’d met online. she picked me up in portland and drove us to the northwest TP paradise just east of seattle. jackie, if you happen to see this, i still remember our trip fondly, and thanks for your patience. looking at all this raw footage, it’s hard to believe you didn’t get seriously pissed (well, externally anyway) about all the taping. your birthday trip too! laugh

oh what a TP geek was i. even rented a VCR in north bend so we could watch the pilot just down the street from the double-R. crazy days, in a beautiful part of the world. there is nothing that compares to watching the series for the first time. a friend and i used to pine for our TP virginity days. that was some serious TV watching. over and over, the episodes flew. second season DVD? thank you for asking.
