The Morning After

Our humble Seahawks shrine, heavy on past teams. The figure is Big Lo, Lorin Sandrusky, Seattle’s Biggest Sports Fan.
Carl’s dad, Bob in the picture. Probably Jr high. He went out for football as a high school freshman, but broke his wrist.

I did sleep in today, but because I woke up in the middle of the night. The neighborhood fireworks ended before I went to bed.

The parade is scheduled for Wednesday, but so is a pacemaker procedure for Carl, so we won’t be attending. An article about the parade referenced the 2013 version. It noted, “Over one-quarter of Seattle Public Schools students were absent that day, as were nearly 20% of the teachers.” I hope all of the medical folks show up to work.

    John was thinking about going to the Parade but changed his mind when he found out that 1 million people are expected. We could take a train or bus there but the crowds would be overwhelming. I will definitely watch it on TV though!

      I get that. We had started thinking about it, but having a conflict made our decision for us. It’s actually probably for the best
