We had a health benefits meeting today at work, and I hadn’t eaten my lunch yet, so I ate my junky McDonald’s food during the meeting. The irony was not lost on me.
Potlatch & other Seattle pictures coming soon, I promise.
What's been on my mind lately? Read on...
I’m back from the Northwest, and so far, I’m unimpressed. Whereas it was 70, sunny, and clear all day in Seattle yesterday, it was already 80 degrees, humid and hazy in Boston when I landed at 7 this morning. Ick.
I got some great pictures back already (had ’em developed in Seattle ’cause I couldn’t wait), but need to scan them in before putting them online. The digital ones will possibly be up sooner.
A brief rundown of the trip:
- went backpacking and camping on the Olympic peninsula, saw beautiful scenery
- spent quality time in Seattle, drank good coffee
- played in frisbee tournament, got tan
- spent more quality time in Seattle, drank more coffee and had exquisite sushi
- took redeye home, discovered it’s called the redeye ’cause they stick red-eyed babies in every other row to cry and keep you awake all night
You know it’s been a good vacation when you’ve temporarily forgotten the route to work when you return home…
Backpacking and camping on the Olympic Peninsula was just spectacular this weekend. We had great weather for the most part (and good gear to keep out the short spells of bad weather), and had a good time. Look for pictures soon.
In the meantime, I’m hangin’ out in Seattle for the next couple days. Anything I oughta do?
As reported in the Guardian (and just about every other online news source), the Supreme Court ruled the Texas anti-sodomy laws unconstitutional. It’s nice to get good news these days, with so much of the news being depressing and all.
Off to Seattle (and Olympic National Park) tomorrow for a good week and half of vacation!
