Snohomish
June 27, 2012
After checking
out a nice country home doggy day care for Chance to stay while we are in
Alaska, we stopped in Snohomish for dinner at a taco truck. A hot air balloon
was out enjoying a sunset ride.

Seattle Sounders Game
June 20, 2012
GGLO organized group seating starting in the 6th
row up from the corner kick location in CenturyLink Field with “Club Level” passes to
the Seattle Sounders professional soccer game.
We stopped for drinks at Fado on our walk over from the office to the game. It
turned out to be a gorgeous night.
Club Level.
Great seats!
Seattle Sounders FC play in the same stadium as the
Seattle Seahawks NFL team.
Today’s game brought to you by Xbox 360.
Christy may need to stand on her seat next time!
Celebration!
Good times.
Go Sounders!
In the end it was disappointingly only a tie against
Kansas City. This place was rocking when we scored a goal though! I still have
to convince Joe to buy tickets to when the Packers come to town for MNF in
September. That would be so much more
fun than a UW game (but a lot heftier on the wallet)…

Fremont Fair
Saturday, June 16, 2012
Today after I gave a Seattle Architecture Foundation
Greatest Hits Tour with fellow volunteer tour guides we went to the street
festival that celebrates the start of summer in the quirky Seattle community of
Fremont, as they refer to themselves, the “center of the universe.” It
coincides with the summer solstice. It is best described as the Freedom to be
Peculiar.
The highlight is the Fremont Solstice Parade, organized
by the Fremont Arts Council. The Solstice Cyclists bike naked, with mostly only
paint to cover themselves, unofficially start the parade. The pageantry and
floats were more than I expected. Joe took some pictures of the official parade
portion.
It was actually really warm today so after getting a bite
of street food, we head back to the car to call it a day. We could only take so
much of the always peculiar Fremont Fair.
