Today it’s actually raining for the first time in 6
weeks. It’s gray and icky, just like you would expect it to be
in Seattle, except we wouldn’t know…Poor Stevie, yesterday he
said for the first time that he liked a place and wanted to go
back, Madison beach, and I said, “we can just come back
tomorrow…”and now this. Not exactly beach weather.

We slept at Commodore Park again last night. It’s so
strange to feel like you are coming home to a parking lot under
a train bridge…Steve decided last night that it was a good idea
to dump a little of our gray water in the parking lot. Of
course, he wasn’t talking to me about that, since I told him not
to do that when I am around. Sure enough, a guy comes around and
says, “Man, are you dumping your sewage here?” People care!
Steve told him, “no of course not! I would never do that. You
don’t shit where you live…” The guy says, “Yeah, I hear you
man!” Steve explains, “I’m having a purge problem”…Where does he
get this stuff?
-
So now we can’t come back here because there might be
noodle all over the parking lot…
-
Maybe won’t actually have to…we may actually run on VO
today!
Steve just went out to pick up a few gallons of virgin vegetable
oil at a Cash & Carry so we have clean oil to start the system
with. We are sitting in the van right now waiting for him.

Lilli is sitting in the back singing songs. Halle’s toy
guitar was left in the van and the kids have been intensely
making music ever since they discovered it in the back. She is
sitting there singing “This is the song about punishment…”
plucking away on two of the otherwise broken strings…of course,
it doesn’t take long and somehow she is hitting Julia over the
head with the back of the guitar…lovely children I have…
-
This morning we went to Julia’s Restaurant. Chris said
it’s good and much better than IHOP, which was absolutely true!
As we were walking in, someone gave us a gift certificate for
$10 off, so all of our delicious food came to only $22! We got
another certificate on the way out so we will pass that one on
to Chris and his family…what goes around comes around… |
