First day off!

I actually slept in today, which is a weird concept. Before I left to come out here, Kenny was over and talking with dad for a bit when Seattle came up. He said he'd be out here visiting his sisters at the beginning of August, which happened to coincide with my first day off.

I called Kenny the other day and we sorted out how things would work. His sister Sandy got me this afternoon and we went by her place where she and Kenny were putting in a new bathroom. They still had some work to put in, so she dropped me off in Kirkland by the waterfront and I walked around and explored for awhile. They got me a little later and we went to their other sister Diane's place. Diane's husband Kent made a bonfire and grilled corn and salmon. There was a salad with edible flowers on it, which were really pretty but I couldn't get much taste out of.

Afterwards their friend Jason finished up a cobbler he'd made with blueberries from his yard, and we sat around the fire with their dogs and talked. It was a nice day off, and I'm rested and ready to kick some ass tomorrow. Mini tramp and bulldogging!
