Well, I think we have the whole taste of Seattle tour down for visiting friends and family.
Though it is easy in fall - the markets have all kinds of fresh apples and pears and cider and such.
The parents and grandparents seemed thoroughly impressed with the city and area. Between the market, wineries, the ferry over to Bainbridge Island, the view from Queen Anne and some history in the Pioneer Square area we definitely packed a lot of travel into 3 days.
In other news - the Vespa has been sold, and the GTI finally arrived from NC after being 'fixed' and 'shipped' after the accident. I put those in quotes because the bumper is not appended properly, the taillight is still cracked, and there's a huge scratch down the side from shipping. I'm hoping they'll give up and write me a check for the car at this point so I can move on. It won't be titled here in any case - even if they make it look right the back of that car is decidedly bent. It will be traded in on anything else.
Current transportation includes shoes and bicycle, which are about all you need here.
The modernist barn is also on the market - hopefully that will sell in the next month or so - paying both rent and mortgage is a fair amount of outgoing money. I have mixed feelings about giving up on that so soon - it was a neat place, though something in my mind rejected the house in the suburbs lifestyle.
