As one would suspect, we began the day at a medical clinic. The Adventist Health Care Clinic in Tillamook was the best looking option. They even had an emergency room, such as it was. Let’s just say I’m damn glad we didn’t have an actual emergency. It looked so spartan I thought about offering to make a Walmart run to replenish their supplies.
Luckily the clinic was deserted and we got right in. After a pass through a portable X-ray machine, yes, portable, we confirmed Kari’s foot was broken. After a search, they found a walking boot and a pair of crutches and sent us on our way.
We headed to Manzanita, determined not to let a mere broken bone keep us from lunch. Getting Kari into the restaurant proved a little more challenging than usual. Shirley isn’t as diminutive as her namesake, so navigating the busy small town roads, dropping her off at the door, then finding parking took a while. But the Offshore Grill & Coffee House didn’t disappoint, it was great. Seafood Louie salad for Kari, oyster po’ boy for me.
We also stopped at a fish market in Garibaldi for provisions:
We hung with Shirley in the evening and watched a flick. A successful, yet disappointing day.
