Though this #TwinPeaks location is established briefly in episode 2010, Mo's Motor is first named in Fire Walk With Me. The corner of Meadowbrook Wy & Park St in Snoqualmie was home to the Brook Theatre from 1923 to the mid 1960s. Sadly, the building was demolished in the summer of 2015.

A day late, but happy birthday to Dave Robinson who served as prop master (S1) and painter (S2, FWWM) on the #twinpeaks crew, but you might recognize him as the “Georgia Peach” from Jacques Polaroid. It’s been a pleasure getting to know Dave over the last few years. He’s as humble as he is funny.

Exciting news for prop lovers attending the Mahoning Drive-In’s “Wild World of David Lynch” event this weekend! I’ve sent a small collection of screen-used props to be displayed throughout the event. I’m sorry I can’t be there, but I hope you’ll enjoy this bit of #twinpeaks magic in my absence.

Fire Walk With Me hit US theaters 33 years ago on Aug. 28, 1992. Production returned to the Snoqualmie Valley and established new locations in the #twinpeaks universe. Here are a few locations as they appear in the real world, all photographed in the last year. Do you still recognize them all?

Happy birthday to #twinpeaks most charming showman, Ray Wise. This past February during The Real Twin Peaks event, he stopped by the Moose Lodge for karaoke after his meet and greet at the North Bend Theatre, singing “Mairzy Doats” and “Getting to Know You” - two of Leland Palmer’s greatest hits.

I love artifacts that offer a glimpse of what it was like on the #twinpeaks set. These placards were used to identify vehicles parked on the City Studios lot during the original run. To my knowledge, this font wasn’t used in any other official branding. More on Twin Peaks Blog: tinyurl.com/mvb37tdk

Big Ed’s Gas Farm was originally located at 8606 Preston-Fall City Rd SE in Preston, WA at the former site of Butchy’s Service Station & General Store, built by Butch and Agnes Fredeen in 1940. Butch and his store appear in the new Images of America: Snoqualmie Valley book, published July 1, 2025.

Very sorry to hear that Rebekah Del Rio has passed away. An immense talent. I could never forget her voice after hearing “Llorando” in Mulholland Dr and was glad to see her in the Twin Peaks revival. Here she is singing “No Stars” in North Bend, WA in Feb 2023. Farewell to La Llorona de Los Angeles.

In 1994, Wrapped in Plastic held a write-in contest where readers could answer trivia questions to win magazines signed by #twinpeaks singer Julee Cruise. Read more as Twin Peaks Blog’s “Julee in June” coverage continues: tinyurl.com/tpjc94

Finally got to visit David Lynch’s resting place yesterday and left some art, a note of thanks, and a blue rose among the tributes. While there, a turtle stopped by and a bee investigated a Lego flower. I have to think a person of David’s curiosity would love this variety of visitors. #davidlynch

When #twinpeaks returned in 2017, I was pleased that the marketing embraced ephemera from the original run. This enamel pin was a recreation of a gift that David Lynch designed for the crew in 1990. A photo of an original pin (third photo) can be found in the Season Two Music & More vinyl release.

In 2021, I drove 800 miles to pick up Nadine’s rowing machine - a #TwinPeaks prop featured in episodes directed by both David Lynch & @markfrost.bsky.social - which was posted on Craigslist. It’s mounted above my fireplace, but I display it at events when possible for fellow fans to enjoy up close.

Days before #firewalkwithme began filming in WA, the Twin Peaks cast/crew received a memo detailing amenities that might be of interest during their stay at the Red Lion Hotel in Bellevue with an emphasis on laundry options as the shoot would last over a month. A peek at real life during production.

As Twede’s Cafe prepares to refresh its “RR2GO!” mural following stucco repair, I thought it’d be fun to look at the diner pre-Showtime facelift. This was my first photo at a #twinpeaks location, taken August 2013. In September 2015, the blue/red mural was painted and filming for The Return began.

When the #twinpeaks revival premiered in LA in May 2017, an afterparty was held at Clifton’s - a perfect spot complete with a realistic indoor redwood tree. This chevron “TP” emblem was designed by David Lynch for the event and appeared on everything from mugs to a logging truck parked outside.

The story pole at the Kiana Lodge (aka #twinpeaks’ Blue Pine Lodge) gets a close up in ep 2.014. This piece was carved by Craig Jacobrown, an apprentice to Duane Pasco who painted the Northwest Coast murals on the property which would inform the look of the Great Northern. Photographed August 2024.

In ep. 1005 of #twinpeaks, Coop finds several postcards in Jacques’ cupboard, including one depicting a giant log converted into an outhouse at Grundy’s Redwood Terrace on CA’s Redwood Highway. But this isn’t the only card with a Northern CA connection. More on Twin Peaks Blog: tinyurl.com/42zrhv8m

New Twin Peaks Blog article is live, covering the “What the Log Saw” exhibit at Portland’s #worldforestrycenter. The display offers a look at #loglady Catherine Coulson’s advocacy for forests and fire prevention, as well as #twinpeaks artifacts and family photos. Read more: tinyurl.com/mrzup8j2

Today marks the opening of “What the Log Saw” - a special pop-up exhibit at Portland’s World Forestry Center. For the first time, the original Log is on display thanks to Catherine Coulson’s daughter Zoey. The exhibit pairs #twinpeaks with Catherine’s advocacy for forests and runs through June 8.

The house that served as the Briggs residence in #twinpeaks is a single story rambler in Fall City, WA located about a half mile from The Roadhouse. Built in 1964, it’s seen some renovations over the years (including the fence enclosing the yard) but it’s still easy to line up the neighboring tree.

The David Lynch: Moving Through Time retrospective was really special. If you missed it, check out my Twin Peaks Blog article below for photos, interview excerpts, and more from my short but sweet visit last week. Thanks to Daniel, Scott, & Music Box staff for their hard work.

Happy birthday to the incredible Sheryl Lee, who was hired to play a corpse on the beach in the #twinpeaks pilot but became so much more. Her portrayal of #laurapalmer has given a voice to those who have suffered similar abuse for 35 years and counting. Photo from an appearance in North Bend 8/16/24

Such a pleasure meeting editor Mary Sweeney yesterday, who introduced a double feature of Sunset Boulevard and Mulholland Drive followed by a Q&A. Mary shaped many of my favorite films and this was a beautiful way to end my trip to Chicago. Stay tuned for a Twin Peaks Blog article about the event.

Wonderful Q&A with Wendy Robie and Rob Christopher following their film My Last Martini, adapted from a story by Lynch collaborator Barry Gifford. Wendy talked about #twinpeaks and how director Diane Keaton let her choose which take to use when Nadine ripped a door off its hinges in season two.
