Let's Catch Up: Washington

I would first like to start off this post by saying that I am in fact alive.  Sorry for the absence last week but as I said, I was in Washington on vacation and had no internet where I was staying.  I know I said I would try to stop by a Starbucks or something and write a post or two but I'm going to be completely honest, it was kind of great just relaxing and exploring Seattle and Vancouver.

I had a great week in Washington, perfect way to end my summer since I move on Friday (dear god I have so much to do).  But, leaving packing aside once again I thought I would share some things I did on my trip.

List of awesome things I did on vacation:

• Made friends with our neighbor's black lab and springer spaniel, Angelo and Winston.
• Drank a lot of beer and ate an ungodly amount of fish and chips.
• Got lost in Vancouver. 
• Got coffee at the original Starbucks.
• Bought a Deadliest Catch sweatshirt.
• Saw the Wizard from The Deadliest Catch.
• Finally saw The Dark Night Rises.
• Collected shells that I can hopefully use for a DIY project.
• And the best part? I did NOT have to sit home in Southern California during the biggest heat wave in years.  I spent my time in 60-80 degree weather. 

I hope all of your have been having a great summer.  This week is pretty exciting for me because 1. I'm moving on Friday and 2. It's Shark Week.  I've got a massive pile of things to get done including some DIYs and crafts so I will be back blogging full time I hope!
