Unlike all of the other post offices who treat you like a punching bag and are demeaning,…read moreunhelpful, and just downright degrading when you go in... Hoquiam employees are always kind, can hold a conversation make you feel welcomed when you enter the building and while you are there. Employees always have a smile on their face, will answer questions without making you feel stupid... I was honestly so surprised my first time entering this building and having them treat me like a actual human being instead of garbage. You guys have officially won my business. I won't be using any other post office from now on.

Just a PSA for people like me who are visiting Aberdeen and think the ship will be where it is…read moremarked on the map. The address is just for the home port of the Lady Washington and it travels around many months out of the year on the West Coast. Don't be like me and drive around the port for 10 minutes looking for a ship that isn't there! You can check https://historicalseaport.org/to see it's current sailing schedule. Would love to see in person one day.

The Lady Washington is a 20th century replica of the original 18th century ship. Chances are that…read moreyou've seen this ship in one of her film appearances: - The Interceptor in the film Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl - The Enterprise in Star Trek Generations - Captain Hook's ship on Once Upon a Time While the Star Trek Holodeck Arch is long gone, it was still a thrill to board this tall ship and imagine what nautical travel must have been like in the 18th century when the Lady became the first American ship to make landfall on the West coast of North America & the first American ship to travel to Honolulu and Japan. If you ever get a chance to tour or sail aboard this tall ship do it! "Computer, remove the plank!"

I have seen a couple of Nirvana documentaries of Kurt Cobain's earlier life that show his childhood…read morewhen he lived in this house. While passing through Aberdeen, I decided to do a mini Nirvana pilgrimage and check out the town that Kurt Cobain grew up in. After spending time at Kurt Cobain Memorial Park near Young Street Bridge, I walked over to his childhood home. The house is just around the corner. It has been refurbished and it is gated off. Someone else currently lives here, so all that you can do is take photos from the sidewalk. Cool historic place to check out, especially if you grew up a Nirvana fan like me. But there is not much else to see or do.

Kurt Cobain was born and grew up in the Washington coast harbor town of Aberdeen WA. This is where…read morehe lived from 1968 to 1984. It was purchased by Lee and Danielle Bacon in 2018 from the Cobain family. They paid $225,000...a bargain considering that the cardigan Cobain wore in 1993 on the set of "MTV Unplugged" sold at auction for $334,000. The Bacons have restored the home to appear as it would have while Cobain lived there. At the time of this review, you cannot go inside, but plans are in the works to make private tours available in the near future. Tours will begin about 1.5 miles away at a soon to be opened Nirvana tribute lounge and gallery cafe as zoning does not allow the home to operate as a traditional museum. It's great to see Aberdeen finally beginning to embrace Cobain's contribution to music history. Fans travel great distances from all around the world to find Cobain's beginnings and pay tribute in the town that helped to shape him. Just a few days prior to writing this review, the Aberdeen City Council unanimously voted to make February 20th (Cobain's birthday) Kurt Cobain Day.

Originally written 11/18/2012. All the post offices on the coast are so small and cute and seem like they are very quaint and old school. I missed this post office the first time I road by. They also have a satellite office for Copalis Crossing at the grocery store, so there are technically two places you can mail in Copalis Crossing but this is the main office.

So, this is a getaway destination for Washingtonians! And while it feels a bit homogenous to this…read moreCalifornia Bag Area native, it was a quaint place to spend a night during my trip to Seattle. I took the scenic route along the Western Coast and through the Olympic National Rainforest. It was a gorgeous drive with the Pacific Ocean and tons of gorgeous water inlets until you get all the way down to Ocean Shores. My take away: Cute little beach town on the western coast of Washington. Why should you come here? You can actually see whales! I went to Point Brown and saw my first live whale EVER! It might have been two. But everyone out on the rock walls threw up high fives and smiled huge happy grins in a moment that connected strangers during a pandemic. It was heartwarming. I didn't eat anything, but enjoyed a grocery trip to the IGA. I loved the humorously labeled isles, but didn't find EXACTLY what I might have wanted. There are lots of potential for touristy activities, and even better: tourist traps to spend money looking for the perfect magnet and post cards!

Spent Saturday on Memorial weekend in Ocean Shores. Busy weekend and the city had locked all the…read morepublic bathrooms at the beach. People in long lines realizing the doors weren't opening. Even the public Porta potty was locked. Elderly, disabled, young and old left trying to find a place to use the bathroom. McDonald's women's bathroom had only 1 working toilet and Subway only has 1 toilet for women and 1 toilet for men. People were using the dunes for their personal bathrooms. Stores don't offer bathrooms to public. We usually go to Long Beach but chose Ocean Shores cause it is closer but after seeing how the city treats tourists we won't be back. In fact, we normally go through all the little shops and eat dinner in town when we do a beach day, We chose not to do that and we left and ate dinner back in our hometown. Ocean Shores is extremely rundown and doesn't seem to be that welcoming to visitors. We most certainly will not be back and will continue having our wonderful beach days in Long Beach.
