Mid week

I spent the last couple days on Whidbey Island hanging out with friends, exploring Ft. Casey, taking walks in the weird August mist and fog that has appeared this week, and learning how to play banana grams. Wyatt came too and also enjoyed spending time with his friend Will, getting to sleep in his sleeping bag (albeit on a bed), and exploring the beach and fort. We were graciously invited to stay at Alumni House West with our friends Carrie and Mark. The house is an old Victorian that was part of Camp Casey back in the early 1900s but now owned by Seattle Pacific University and made available for rental to alumni and faculty of the school. With six or seven bedrooms and a dining room that seats 15, it's a perfect group getaway. I felt lucky to join the fun.

Several ferry rides later we are home, just in time for the weekend. It's good to be me.
