Oh how I’ve missed you.

You know, this would be a lot less somber if the UK had a tradition of burying former and current Prime Ministers alongside the monarch to serve her in the afterlife.

Little known fact, each neighborhood in Seattle is responsible for storing its winter rainy weather. You can tell it’s a secure facility by the sunshine and blue skies

[Douglas @PNW_Doug]

I think that’s the first time I’ve read those words since September. I live for rain, absolutely love it, but not gonna lie, this break will be appreciated.

When the temperature slowly declines throughout the day, you know an ugly front is coming through and settling in like it’s put a down payment on the place

Congratulations, Chile!

King County, Washington has now passed 80% vaccination for all eligible residents 12 and older, and 86% have at least one shot.

I give thanks every day that I live in a sane region of the country. It is a huge weight off my mind.

My daily commute now includes both a train AND a bike ride.

It’s like someone went back in time and asked 12-year-old me to design the best possible commute.

Moon set is under rated

The sun lifting dramatically over Seattle’s hills this morning under a setting moon, looking across Smith Cove at the north end of the Elliott Bay trail.

There’s something pleasing about randomly running across their N.A. headquarters while out on a bike ride.

Why was I never informed as a child that “Remote Control Train Engineer“ was a valid career option?

[Douglas @PNW_Doug]

This feels unbelievably good to read.

[Public Health - Seattle & King County @KCPubHealth]

As of today, 80% of people ages 12 and over in King County have received at least 1 dose of the #COVID19 #vaccine! 🥳 Thanks to each one of you who have helped us get to this goal.

Only the Good Die Young. Donald Rumsfeld Dead at 88

Mass murderer and war criminal Rumsfeld has died, and Earth became just that little bit better off.

Good riddance.

Yesterday was miserable, but the marine push that woke me up in the middle of the night was glorious.

The Washington State Liquor and Cannabis Board are now allowing dispensaries to offer a free joint to those receiving a COVID-19 jab.

I love this state.

There were definitely a few unexpected sobs of relief that surprised me this morning.

The Republican Party once took pride to be known as the Party of Lincoln, the man who saved the Union. It is now openly supporting outright sedition.

How the mighty have fallen.

Winter in the Pacific Northwest is just the best if you love cool and rainy as I do.
