Seattle.

A four hour drive feels like nothing two weeks after a 10 hour drive.
Seattle smells good.
And it's amazing to see the city appear, at night, after driving through soft deep green triangular trees, soft with the light of a late setting sun.
(It gets dark here between 9:30 and 10 pm!)

And you know what?

Just minutes after being on Interstate 5 in Portland I was on a bridge passing a sign saying Washington State!
Ahhh geography, not my strongest subject. But I do like it!
Make me wallpaper of maps. Nautical or otherwise.
At least I have a strong sense of direction.

Off to Tea's favorite farmers' market tomorrow.

Wait, today is tomorrow.

When I moved up here (other side of the state, but still WA), the whole "hey! I get an extra two hours of light each day" thing wigged me out for a day or so, but it's pretty cool. Except I think it works the other way during the winter. :(

I'm off to a farmer's market too, in Idaho. I'm thinking it's not going to be like the Bay Area. I'll soldier on and continue to live vicariously through you!

Welcome to WA!! My beautiful town of Bellingham is only an hour drive from Seattle and our Farmer's Market is amazing!
Enjoy your stay!!
