Brian and I celebrated his 33rd birthday at the Olympic Hotel in Centralia, WA. It's an old European-style hotel (meaning no in-room bathrooms) located right next to the train tracks. The hotel's now owned by a microbrewery. Supposedly train robbers hid out here back in the days. The hotel has a movie house right next door with couches and easy chairs for seats. We had pizza and beer while we watched the movies - a double feature: the latest Pirates of the Carribean-On Stranger Tides and a sci-fi called, Super 8. Normally I wouldn't stay up that late, but our bunk room was located directly over the Dolby surround-sound speakers in the movie theater. You could literally "feel" the action.Sunday, August 7, 2011
