Happy Place

Our visit to Baby Boomers Mike and Karin’s Happy Place began with a mini live rock and roll concert in their neighbor Dave’s man cave.  Dave’s a musical entertainment czar and he’s got the photos and rock posters in his cave to prove it.  Welcome to Crescent Bar!  

Mike and Karin’s condo overlooks the mighty Columbia River and surfing behind their Centurian Surf boat is a popular activity. And so is golf.  And so is ripping around the community in golf carts to visit with other happy folks enjoying the summer.  Whether behind the wheel of the boat, his cart, his truck or just sipping from his WSU Cougar coffee cup, Mike was in the zone.  Karin will surf your doors off and is the reigning community midnight golf champion. Mike is the reigning champion mixer of the perfect Manhattan cocktail and he insists on making his own Bloody Mary’s, not trusting his inexperienced guests to do it properly.  That last part is not entirely true.

Visiting on July Fourth meant being able to enjoy a golf cart parade in the morning and spectacular fireworks in the evening.  Crescent Bar is hopping!

We were fortunate to partake in the summertime fun in a truly Happy Place with such great hosts.  There are vacation rentals available and a limited number of RV spots.  Google “Crescent Bar rentals” for various options.
