Saturday in Seattle



We met up with Annie at Groundspeak, Inc. yesterday.

The company just moved into some new digs, so we took the tour.

Nice place and some wonderful views of Lake Union.

Ironically, without prior plans, Bill and Annie happened to wear the same T-shirt yesterday.

After the tour, we headed off to the Mariners game, and what a night it was: Mariners won over the Rangers 4-0.

I took my sign and waved it frequently.

I think the only people who noticed it, though, were a couple of guys in the stands.

The sign said, "April Fools: Beef 4 Dinner."

One of the guys thought it said, "Beer 4 Dinner."

Oh, well, I tried to advertise the beef industry, Terri.

Turns out I got to know the guys and their wives who were sitting up above us.

Turns out there's another person in the world who loves meeting people. His name is Steve and he works with the Tacoma-area parks, while his wife is an engineer with Pierce County. Nice, nice people.

Today we'll go on a hike near one of the area rivers, and we'll be back by 3 to get ready to March to the Match.

Oh, I might also add that they put us on the Lake Union side of our hotel, and it's mighty pretty looking at the lights and the lake during this pre-dawn time.

It gets light a lot later over here in Seattle, but it looks like a great day ahead.

Happy Saturday to all.
