A month before this good bye to Bellingham, my toes were as itchy as ever to get moving. But I couldn't leave just yet, as I had a new employee to train, an apartment to move out of, friends and new family to spend time with, and a tent that cried to be popped up just once more in a PNW spring forest. So in order to make my last several weeks in the area memorable, I pretended I was visiting with new eyes and signed myself up for a stay-at-home vacation.
While I wasn't working:
Cheese(Meats)Beer (opened in April by wonderfully cheery and hip Annalou and Travis)
Cafe Rumba (A Peruvian deli where the chicha is all natural, just like the best in Peru)
Kulshan Brewery (Bellingham has an appetite for not 1, not 2, but 3 of its own microbreweries. I expect there to be at least one more by the next time I'm in the city.)
Dashi Noodle Bar (not new, new to me)
