- Today, August 17, 2010 is the first anniversary of our move to Seattle. At this time last year, our plane was just about to touch down, I believe. A year!
- We spent the weekend in Oregon. It was a whirlwind trip, smiled upon by the angels. Or, more likely, the god of getting into restaurants just before the long lines. Which god is that, anyway? Dionysus, maybe…
- Seriously, we picked the right weekend, even with the 95-degree temps. See, since it WAS going to be so hot, I spent time online looking for air-conditioned stuff to do. Which led us to OMSI, which just happens to be hosting an Einstein exhibit right now. And which just happened to be free this weekend. Fa-ree. Completely sponsored by Fred Meyer (local grocery store). YES! Cheap trip just got cheaper, baby.
- Oh, and Einstein? I never knew much about his life or political beliefs before Saturday, but I’m now a huge fan. Totally cool old dead guy.
- Speaking of travel, have you checked out Trazzler? Fun! I read about it on someone else’s blog recently, and I’m ashamed to say I can’t remember whose. But thank you, mysterious blogger who I follow in RSS but apparently am too daft to recall!
- It looks like the blackberries are ripe around these parts. The boys and I must make a roadside stop. I can’t imagine any better summer taste than fresh blackberries. Unless it’s blackberry pie. Or blackberry cobbler.
