Off to Seattle

This entry will be backdated to Wednesday, May 2 in about a week Today was the last day in the hotel. Monk was taking some time off of work, so staying at his place made a little more sense. I was sort of sad to have the last of the yummy breakfast buffet... but these things come and go. FINALLY there was some real rain going on. Dammit, Seattle, I was expecting more of this! Rain, please! Looking back, it was a bit of a foolish idea to meet Monk at lunch, considering the rain and all... but...

Updates first: Roberta is finally home and is doing ok. She's needing some home health assistance, but is recovering a little every day.

It appears that I'll be in Seattle tomorrow night. The plan, as I know it, is to go to the best Chinese restaurant in this hemisphere (according to Amos, as told to me by Michael) and then to venture to the Mercury.
