(I work there) :] but ya we get like a ton of twilight fans come and take pictures and my friend lives at the "swans." she says its crazy how many people go there.Forks Outfitters and Forks Thriftway is not two stores merged into one. Trust me.http://www.forksoutfitters.com/history.html. thats a little bit about the store. and how it is expanding becuase its the only store in town. so like... they have to be getting bigger. and its not a thrift store. Ace and Thriftway are in Forks Outfitters. <BR/>We dont need fast food. the places we eat at are the In Place, pizza... sullys. i dont go to subway a ton. At the Coffee Shop i met the director of the movie! she came in and was just looking around nd she was like "have you heard of twilight?" we were like yesss and she said "well im directing it". then we got pictures with her and she said she will put them in the bakc of the movie but im not sure if she will. <BR/>Tommy hilfiger did a commercial down at the beach right before this whole twilight thing too.<BR/>I will admit forks is a boring place to go if you dont know anyone to show you the places. Its a hicktown. not a hole :] on the edge of a ghost town before twilight so of course everyone is milking it up. and those people who gave you the map are not a couple. Marsha and Mike. They just work there and have forever. ...but anyways back to what we do in forks. we do a lot of quading becuase of all the logging roads and random places they lead to. I dont go to the beach but maybe once a year... we have sports tournaments. Innertubing Kneeboarding Wakeboarding out at Lake Pleasant. Walk up and down Main Street.Go Mudding. Work. Once you live here you know what there is to do around here.<BR/> lets see what else...<BR/>Its sunny here all the time! haha we just got out of a thunderstorm. but it was 90 degrees a few days ago. i agree that we dont have the greatest weather. but look at our surroundings. Mountains Mountains and... more mountains. :] <BR/><BR/>thats all i can think about right now... Forks is a great place to live because you know everyone haha.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6193458857872469773.post-86818879723538073062008-08-19T15:27:00.000-07:002008-08-19T15:27:00.000-07:00Okay, I just read this again and had to comment on...Okay, I just read this again and had to comment on the pic of Jacob's "paws".

Wow, I feel like I was there and these pictures were great! They were classic shots of everything I've been wanting to see there, so thanks! The pictures of First Beach are absolutely beautiful. I loved the Twilight sub. Too me it looked delicious, which I'm sure it was. What a bummer about Bella Italia, that is definitely something I will have to remember in the future if I ever make it to Forks. So the Bed and breakfast at the Cullens place, can people actually make reservations and stay there? (I bet it's booked 6 months in advance!)<BR/><BR/>I loved reading everything about the Concert Series you went to. But I'm still insanely jealous that you got to meet Stephanie, and that she signed your book! I watched the Concert Series from LA on youtube and it was SO good. She answered so many questions about breaking dawn and finally talked about all of the books. So I can imagine that the Seattle questions were just as good! One of my favorite parts were hearing all the songs from Justin Furstenfeld and then having Stephenie say how this song inspired a certain part from the book. It was great, and I'm glad you loved it too! What a way to top of such an amazing series.ashleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17681484623639434495noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6193458857872469773.post-38599826465287973522008-08-17T16:34:00.000-07:002008-08-17T16:34:00.000-07:00Your favorite photo is incredible!

Trips like that are too rare. I loved this whole post, but I must say, my most favorite part is.....drum roll...... .............Bill's "I got Spooned in Forks" t-shirt idea! That man is brilliant. I laughed so hard. And later through out the day I would think about it, and start laughing again.Rachaelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13485979611962877815noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6193458857872469773.post-77742644513790231982008-08-15T07:40:00.000-07:002008-08-15T07:40:00.000-07:00Seriously, this was so fun to read.
