Seattle Day II




I awake @ 6 am and am out on the street by 6:15, there is no rain, still dark and traffic is actually restively sparse on HWY 99, I walk down to Pier 52 (The Ferry Boats) then double back and head up Union and over thru the Market, people are just setting up for the day and stop for a fresh Roll and dbl shot mocha I then head down the steps (feeling the pain in my shins, about 15 years ago I could go up and down these steps and hills no problem with out getting tired) I walk back over to the hotel but pass it and stop off for another mocha then about a block walk back to the hotel, I go up to my room, call my mother and wish her a Happy Birthday then head into the shower, I get out and head to my seminar, I got in a 2 and a half mile walk, some pictures and all before 8 am. The worse part about the seminar is that it was partly cloudy out, not raining and I was stuck in a room with about 25 other people while the city called my name, so I downed cup after cup of Starbucks Coffee and bottle after bottle of San Banedetto sparkling Water (as Mr. Krabs would say...Hey It's Free) I waited until 4 pm then I was FREE ..


My Boss and I walked over to Myrtle Edwards Park and I found a rock with some Barnacle on it for my son (he loves his Spongebob squarepants, and anyone who don't is a Barnacle Head) then we walked over and headed up Clay Street and down Western, we walked along the way checking out the sites, and then headed over to Pioneer Square, seen a very sexy Asian girl bent over doing something in her car and her thong was sticking out of her pants, as I was about to take a picture she got up Damn the luck.... as we carried on I was surprised to see such a change in store fronts , many a furniture store, just as at Pikes Market, I remember many an artist shop?gallery/ now so many "food and coffee" stores, there was a wonderful floral store on the corner and now it's gone.... well we had a great walk and almost got chewed up by a dog fight between a Pitbull and Rot, damn jerkasses, we then headed to Ivars,(ok I twisted my Bosses Arm) no not the sit down fancy part this time, but the fast food part, ahhh YESSSS I was able to get my clam chowder (again) and my deep fried salmon, we headed back to the hotel to chow down, it was wonderful, the wind blowing and the aroma of marine life we parted ways and ate in our rooms, we hooked up at 8 in the Lobby and waited for the shuttle to take us to the Cloud Room, only to have my heart broken to find out some asshole bought the Camlin Hotel and tore it down to build bigger and newer.... Fucking Prick ah what sweet memories I had ..... so we ended up going to the Cyclops and only 3 blocks away from our Hotel, the Jamz were good, the brew fine, we headed down to the Edgewater about 10:30 and ended up in the bar there until closing ahh what a night what a night......
