Sleepless in Seattle



Greetings from the Emerald City!

I hope everyone had a relaxing and enjoyable Saturday. Mine consisted of driving all day and trying to stay awake!

My friend Tyler and I left Creswell at around 1030 this morning. We drove up here to Seattle only stopping once for lunch. I must say that this drive up here is boring and mundane. Taking the train is such a better way to go. You can get up, walk around, grab something to drink, etc. It is so much more civilized.

Anyways, we got here to Seattle and met up with one of Tyler's friends who is being gracious enough to allow us to sleep here tonight. He is going to the game with us tomorrow.

The people I am staying with are very nice and decent people. I wish that I was more awake and energetic when interacting with them. Maybe the six-hour car ride had something to do with it.

After we got here, our hosts took us to a friend of theirs to have dinner and watch some tv. The original plan was to eat dinner and then go into Downtown, but we were just way too tired to have anymore adventures for the day. We ended up just sitting around, watching the baseball game, and visiting with these very nice people.

The plan for tomorrow is this: at around 0930, we'll hop on the bus into Downtown Seattle. After cruising around for a few hours and seeing the sights, we'll make our way to the ballpark and see the game. We'll depart Seattle immediately following the game. Our ETA back to Creswell should be around 2300. I will throw out an update then.

Always take on a 3-0 pitch ;)
