So in one week, John will be here to visit me on my turf! I get him for one weekend, so I've put a lot of thought into how to capture the essence of Seattle in two days. Here's our planned itinerary:

Saturday, April 19


Sunday, April 20


So, what do you think? Did I leave anything out?

Can we buy a package? We should get Dawn to matchmake again and then it could be a 2 for 1 special! LOL

Thanks, everyone for your good thoughts!

Hey, maybe if this teaching thing doesn't work out (lol) I can start a business hosting SFV friends visiting Seattle!

Have you been to the Hi-Spot Cafe? It's in Madrona, absolutely best brunch spot in Seattle (they won me over with their buttermilk biscuits). Sounds like a fun weekend capt! Discovery park and the Seattle Art Museum were my favorite places to take visitors.

On a side note, did you get to attend the Seeds of Compassion event?

It looks like you have really put alot of thought into his visit. I am sure he'll have a wonderful time...besides I am guessing that is not so much about WHAT he's going to see when he gets to seatle but WHO he see. I hope the two of you have a great weekend together and cherish every moment. Smiler

Yes, Bishop! This is going to be our third meeting already! I've been to Boston twice, now!

Better get that sniffer checked - it's a little late in smelling out an SFV romance! Smiler

No NO No....thats not what I meant...it's a great itinerary. I've spent time with the troll and it's just one of those things that makes you go...HUH...I actually photographed the troll before they cemented the car over. It was originally in tact but people were stealing parts from it. And you can plan me a trip to Seattle but have fun dragging my arse off the beach to go......

And I did say anti-climatic except for the "sleepless part"......

I'm originally from Vegas...as a photog i've been all over the west coast...more than I care to think about actually...I'll see if I can find the pics...may take a bit as those would be in an unclassified category and I have over 20 years of archives...

Gen....actually your boat is calling today....watched her come in....

So John is officially on his way!

I'm going crazy here waiting for his arrival at 9:00! You would not believe how clean my house is at this moment!

I've been monitoring his flight online, and his plane is currently somewhere over Minnesota right now. So if you're in the midwest, look to the sky and give him a little wave! Smiler
