On February 24, 2023 at 11:30 a.m., Twin Peaks fans gathered from around the world at the Welcome to Twin Peaks sign spot location to hear a reading of an official Twin Peaks Day proclamation. It was a moment in time that I never thought I’d see nearly 30 years ago when I first fell in…
For the Real Twin Peaks 2023 event, there was only one place I wanted to stay – the magnificent Salish Lodge & Spa in Snoqualmie, Washington. My wife Katie and I last stayed at the Lodge in October 2019 for our first wedding anniversary. We couldn’t wait to get back, and we were delighted to…

On August 28, 1992, my favorite David Lynch film, Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me, celebrates its 30th Anniversary. If I had a nickel for every time I’ve seen this film since my first viewing in October 1993, I’d be dead. It reminds me of a warm Sunday afternoon in late summer, with its mesmerizing…
