What A Wonderful Day For A Walk . . .

and watching fighter jets fly over head at breakneck speeds. Let me explain. Seafair is in full swing here in Seattle, and every year along with the pirate, the parade, the hydro planes, and the drunken boat parties the Blue Angels come to town. And with the blue angels comes the annual mid morning thursday traffic jame as the blue angels do their practice. So this traffic jam was causing my bus into seattle to be late and I was going to miss my transfer. So I got off at an early stop and walked to work. And it was actually faster to walk to work this way than to go all the way downtown and wait for a transfer. Pretty stinking sweet. So not only did I get to enjoy the weather, and get some exercise in, I also got to watch the blue angels zoom over head and do some things that I'm pretty sure would cause me to wet my pants. Thank you Seafair for the inconvenience that turned out to be a nice stroll. Thank you.
