The scenery every which way you look pleads with Webster to create the word "eyegasm" verb: "I need a huge sandwich and a nap after that fat eyegasm I had at Glass Beach

Definitely a 5 star experience; and will continue to be. Something to reflect a lifetime of adventure

Every Tuesday my girlfriend and I would fill the car up and buy seven one dollar scratcher tickets. We didn't get rich; I think the most we made was $20; but it was something to keep us occupied while the pump was going. It also gave us ...

It's one on the list that wasn't planned; just clicked that boom, there it is. Started working graveyards at this place, and I'm knee deep in water, swallowed up by complete darkness, and on 1500 acres by myself in pure isolation. So one...
