I have lived in the PNW all my life. I was born & raised in Coos Bay, Oregon. which appears to have been much the same economic base as Aberdeen. I have since move on, but I did make a trip to Aberdeen earlier last week to pick up my new, beloved Boxer puppy. The short trek from Olympia was nothing short of stunning. A beautiful drive and lovely. I also noted that Aberdeen was once a prosperous and bustling city. Lovely old hotels, store fronts, and city streets. Much like Coos Bay in years past. My short visit in Aberdeen at a down town motor loge was scary to say the least, but I would do it all over again. Towns like Aberdeen & Coos Bay deserve a shot. All we need is money!

Stayed a night in Aberdeen last July in a gorgeous B&B up on the hill. Weather was sunny and warm with blue skies!

Two memories of Aberdeen... in the 70's we would go through Aberdeen to the Pacific beaches to dig for razor clams. Returning cold and filthy we always stopped at the old Crystal Steam Baths for a hot steam and many tall Buds. On another trip I stopped at an old pawn shop in the early 80's and found a stunning 1979 Guild F212XL NT Jumbo 12 string guitar (mahogany B&S) that had incredible power and chime. I still have it and play it often. Sounds fantastic. Aberdeen is just a sad shell of what it once was. Sun never seems to shine when I (now rarely) drive through the area.

Just randomly drove through Aberdeen today. Just moved to Tacoma bout 2 months ago and wanted to see the pacific ocean, this was along the way. Pretty city, easily identifiable as some place with historic roots. I didn’t know about Cobain being from there until later this same evening. Driving through i kept telling my wife i felt as if i was in an Alaskan fishing village.

Thank you for your comment. Were you heading to Westport, or Ocean shores? Where were you living before moving to Tacoma?

Thank you for commenting. It’s nice to hear that you loved the video. I would love to say more about Kurt , but I have to be so careful because there are copy right problems that I could get in trouble with.
