So I'm back in Vancouver, and as I said earlier I noticed some major changes since last time I went there (summer 2011) :
The Fat Trout Trailer Park is gone, RIP.
They even removed the creepy phone pole.
Teresa Banks is memory, as is her trailer. But I'm sure this spot is still haunted
First Time I went to Twin Peaks, almost 2 years ago, I spent my time driving on the small roads (200 miles in just 2 days), searching for the locations. A very strange feeling, especially at night when you prepare yourself to see Bob coming out the woods, or interrupt Leo dealing with Bobby and Mike on a service road. I was very proud to be able to find almost everything by myself (i discovered later Charle's website), and even more after that to realize I found 2 unmarked locations from FWWM : The Airport and the School Bus (see pictures above).
if the airport is still there, the track waiting for agent Desmond to land,
, unfortunately the Bus is gone
I just found theses ashes at the exact spot where the bus was. I doubt it comes from the bus, but the coincidence is "funny".
Another change : Hap's Diner.
The Fall City Grill is now the Fall City Bistro, and they changed the paint color
Damn, even the Mount Si is gone !
The Ronette's Bridge, different angle
Some grafittis on the bridge
I left my mark, it should stand a couple of days...
I was able to move around The Packard Mill, for different angles
Hard to believe when you see it now, but the Snoqualmie Mill was actually one of the largest in the world. It was covering the entire field.
"Shorty, tell the boys to pull the plug"
A last stop at the sign spot. Mt Si is back, yay !
After a yummy breakfast at the Roadhouse (so much better than Twede's by the way), it's time to leave Twin Peaks, by the Big Ed's Gas Farm.
Still no drapes at the window...
And then something very strange happened. When I went back to the car, the Doors were playing "the unknown soldier", repeating "It's all over, it's all over", and the radio was displaying this (no joke, I still can't understand why or how but it just happened at this exact moment)
I'm addicted to this place. The atmosphere is so special... You really can feel that some things happens at night in the woods.
Some day, I'm sure a kid will find the Owl Cave entrance, just as the young french in Lascaux in the 40's.
Some businesses and places for sale. I wish I could have a green card and some money. I would buy Mo's, open "The Black Lodge Café" with a TP museum at the back
Until this moment happens, I'll just be back again...
