A date and a class all in one!

Another day brings another adventure. Rob and I are in the process of obtaining a foster care license. There are many things we have to accomplish to qualify for that license, one of which is to take a CPR/First Aid/HIV class. As we have been in a bit of a hurry to get all the requirements completed, scheduling this class and that class has been a bit of a challenge. Finally, we decided to make a special weekend trip out of the CPR/First Aid/HIV class. It was either Yakima or Port Angeles. We chose Port Angeles. I can't remember ever visiting Port Angeles. It turned out to be a very nice trip. Rob was pretty happy to get away for the weekend.Autumn is beautiful anywhere, and Port Angeles was no exception. The water was strangely calm on the Strait of Juan de Fuca. I expected more turbulence like on the Puget Sound or something.
The port seemed to be quite a busy place for boats, boat making, and the like.
We tried to squeeze some romance into our weekend by going to a nice restaurant for dinner. This is supposedly the place where Bella learned that Edward could hear other people's thoughts in the movie Twilight. The food was excellent!

These lovely trees were just outside out hotel room. Autumn is absolutely my FAVORITE time of year. I love the color, the smells, and the cool crisp air.

Our class was excellent, we really did learn a lot. The trip was really pretty (even the stormy ride up there). And on the way back, we saw this store. I couldn't resist getting a picture for Tim. He used to joke around about SAARS (I have no idea how it is spelled) all the time.
