Spending this gorgeous Wednesday at the Village of my people!!

It's my last full week on the road and I am lacking at the blog. Oops.

Peace, Love & BAXTER VILLAGE

Had a short but sweet trip back home to Texas for the weekend to celebrate our Risen King with some of my favorite people.

I started out my visit with a quick trip to Dallas to one of my favorite bands, Green River Ordinance, UP CLOSE & PERSONAL with my favorite gals.

^^ I spy with my little eye... CELEBS aka Me and my peepz in this VIP photo (gaze to the right)

Easter was spent with the sibs then on the porch swinging on a BEAUTIFUL spring day!!

& then with my favorite critters hunting eggs and rehiding them to hunt them again. And again.

Off to my second to last visit before my journey is over. 

SOAKING IN THE FINAL MOMENTS OF PEOPLE WATCHING AT THE AIRPORT.

Peace, Love & Gotta Go

A bittersweet goodbye today on this Good Friday.

Thanking the Lord for Good People, Pretty Places & for sending this DOUBLE RAINBOW to end my last day in "The Rainy City"

Time to go see my people back in Texas!

Peace, Love & Howdy Home

To Be Honest...

I think I discovered a LEGIT fear that I have... going to museums ALONE.

I spent this rainy Seattle day at the Burke museum, a place that is highly recognized as a place to see at U Dub's campus. I was just trying to be cultured, but was SPOOOOOKED.

The first victim that gave me the HEEBIE JEEBIES was this GIANT skeleton of a mammoth or something? I refused to get close enough where I could read the label.

I don't know what my issue is, I guess I watched Night at the Museum a few too many times, unfortunately I couldn't find Robin Williams or Ben Stiller.

Thanks to the glass cage I was able to observe this Stegosaurus head up close for a good 3 seconds and a dinosaur leg bone.

Then I came across the world of totem poles and CREEPY masked faces and other goblin looking things. I am not hating on any cultures, just stating the facts that these are definitely some throw back figures that I do not miss here in the 21st century... or maybe we do, I just need to pop my bubble and go learn about the world around me.

Then I met THESE friends............If you think you can convince me that these critters DON'T come alive at night... you can't. 

 One of my final sightings was "The First Seattle Coffee Mug" which was made out of ... I forgot. But it was neat.

And this drawer that I will always wonder what is inside, but couldn't gain enough courage to slide it open.

 And FINALLY, I have to give a shout out to the HORNED FROGS on display.

137 days til kickoff peopleeeee!!

Peace, Love & Blessed to make it out alive

Had the sweetest time enjoying Sisterhood at Alki Beach

 (pronounced Al-KHI not Alch-Y just in case y'all attempt to pronounce it)

Despite the PRIME KITE FLYIN' wind,

Couldn't hate my toes in the sand and THE MOST BEAUTIFUL SCENERY 

I learned how to make "Poop in a Pillow" aka Chocolate tucked away in a freshly toasted marshmallow

Roasted some Hot Dogs like a CHAMP 

Spent time with some of my favorite people

And watched the sun set over the shore

Okay, Patagonia...

Have I mentioned that I LOVE THIS PLACE!!????

Peace, Love & Please Excuse My Bon-Fire-Smellin' Sweater 

I had the BEST weekend here in Seattle. Went to the fair, spent a day downtown and RODE THE DUCKS! 

My people here surprised me with the BEST way to tour Seattle....

via "Duck". Somebody call Ms. Frizzle cause this is the next best thing since the Magic School Bus.

Our ticket included a complimentary DUCK BILL that QUACKED. Sorry I am not sorry other passengers. We quacked until we were light headed.

On the tour we saw, the first automatic car wash

Got up close and personal with the needle

Caught a glimpse of the skyline

And had the chance to see Seattle from the water

The day ended with a trip to the Water Front

Where the Chihuahuas even conform to "street life" in Seattle

Can't hate a sunny day by the BAY

Peace, Love & Quackin' Up

THANK HEAVEN FOR NUMBER ELEVEN
