Seattle comes to an end tomorrow. I'm sad even though I am looking forward to sleeping in my bed again. I also don't understand how I was ever used to the months of grey, rainy weather here. I haven't seen Mt. Rainier once since I arrived a couple of weeks ago. That bothers me.

Tomorrow, we head north to Vancouver and then we head east to Manitoba.

Wedding bells will ring on Saturday. Not ours. Those rang a while back. Raise a glass to my BIL and SIL if you'd like. I'll eat a cupcake for you.

At some point next week, once the beginning of the semester has settled down (guess who's writing her syllabus on the first day of class), and I've unpacked and started detoxing and eating salads, I'll start posting again.
