Pike Place in Seattle

WE’RE IN SEATTLE!!!! Oh what a night… and day.

We rolled out of the TOMS parking lot Monday at about 12:40, and immediately stopped since our gas gauge was sitting about a foot below the red, and the gas light had been on for 2 days. From there we made it roughly another 6 and a half minutes before stopping for one last visit at Yogurtland. It was delicious and wonderful. After one last stop in Santa Barbara for Ana to drop off some clothes we hit the open road! Within an hour Carolyn was sleeping in the back, Ana was sleeping in the passenger seat and I was sleeping err watching the road alertly in the driver’s seat. We made plans to stop in San Francisco for a late dinner, but then we faced a life-altering decision. Do we drive on to San Fran and eat at a one-of-a-kind restaurant or do we eat at the KFC/A&W across the street from the gas station in the middle of nowhere? It really wasn’t that hard of a decision. We chose KFC/A&W. I mean, root beer on tap… how you gonna pass that up? After a rejuvenating meal of fried chicken, hamburgers, and cheese curds we hit the road again. We saw snow! We saw rain. Mostly rain. And then before we knew it we were in Seattle. So now we’re sitting in Local Color Cafe at Pike Place, and I’m writing this. I tried to do this in the car, but it turned out a little something like this: adglihaf[pbionvj;lnaegilh;akldfn... First event is at University of Washington tomorrow! Woot Woot!

Artwork in Local Color Cafe. Awesome!

    “We’re sitting on a bench.” Probably one of the best parts.

    Ha! This is hilarious! I love the bench photo – I was a bit confused about what you were doing at first but the caption cleared it up for me.
