in a perfect world of yancies: Seattle, Sure; but Oh that Lawrence . . .

Seattle, Sure; but Oh that Lawrence . . .

Thanks for you patience, Mel.

Took a bike ride recently up to Gas Works Park and on into Fremont. Lovely time. Odd, but handsome park:







Look, way over across the water--Capitol Hill!






And after miles of riding, how could we not stop here?




More basketball watch-party photos!
thanks, Dave

Ryan


Yancy, before things got going



Jamie almost looks nervous . . .



The opposing team's lineup? No time for that; too busy reading the paper . . .


More fun during and after the game:
























Hard to believe it's all over (for this year!) . . .



Luckily, Kristin, who runs the alumni email list, is awesome

She put together an outing to the Mariners/Royals game. It was cold, and it wasn't the best game ever (that's right, Royals fans, I said it . . .), but was great to see everyone again.

And they sell garlic fries at Safeco! Wow. (Thanks, Shannon, for sharing with us!)












Finally,
Just heard a charming story on the radio about Lawrence's post office . . . ah Lawrence. Good stuff on the parade for the basketball team over on kusports.com, too.
