Seattle

There are many things I miss about my hometown. In no particular order, here are 12:

  • Breakfast at Pike Place
  • Thai Food on the Ave
  • The things you see as you work your way down to the waterfront
  • People watching - Westlake, Broadway, Seattle Center
  • Festivals - Sea Fair, Bumbershoot,The Bite of Seattle
  • Days spent on the lake (there are many)
  • Lazy weekends on Queen Anne and Green Lake
  • The vibe - the city has musical roots, it influences everything
  • Nature - You're sandwiched between the Olympic and Cascade Mountain Ranges, Mt. Rainier is ever-present, the trees are as big as they come, the air is crisp and water is everywhere
  • Dick's burger and shake
  • Summer - Seattle summers are the best kept secret in Northwest
  • Friends and family
