What happened

September 18, 2010

?!

I was supposed to get up early today, walk for 3 hours with a friend.
Next up – go to the Wallingford Wurst Festival, and have a wurst or two.
Finally – Mariner’s game in the second tier seats, a place I have never sat.

I got up. Drove to West Seattle. Walked and talked for said 3 hours, probably 8 miles (don’t really know, and don’t know where we went, so I can’t measure).  Check

Came home. After a short bit, set out walking again with Carl, the 1 mile to the Wurst. I had a white with kraut, and a red on a stick. Yum. The Wallingford Wurst is a fund raiser for St. Benedicts school. Angela, one of Carl’s kids, went there last year for pre-kindergarten. That is not why we went to the Wurst. It is just a fun, local, neighborhood event with food, local music, and rides/events for kids. When our kids were smaller they had real carnival rides. Now they have air supported things, and carnival type games that are staffed by St. Bens parents. Good time. And we walked home. Check

For a rainy day, it was sunny. I think it did rain, but that was before the sun came up.

While whiling away the 2 hours between wurst and worst Mariner’s I was wandering through the latest National Geographic. And nodding off. First sitting, then lounging, then lying down. Then I heard Carl saying, “Kevin, do you want to use our second ticket to the game? Jay has checked out.”

And so, I am home. Finished the magazine, and watched a show with Ashlan. Tomorrow – well I should be well-rested.
