Easter on the Puget Sound


It was a pretty glorious day in Seattle yesterday. We had our traditional treasure hunt, compliments of the Easter Bunny Pirate, complete with treasure map. We had our egg hunt. We reveled in the respendent,gorgeous tulips that I planted everywhere last fall. We did chose a pretty horrid brunch buffet, but what did we expect on finding the only place still accepting reservations on the Wednesday before Easter. Hmmm... All was right with the world though because the sun sparkled on the Puget Sound, illuminating the container ships like bright toy-filled jewels on the emerald waters.


The beasts actually kept mainly clean on the rocky beach and threw only 1/5 the rocks into the sound. It was breezy enough to fly a kite, walk along the water front, and skip through the sculpture park. We even ended the day at REI. We scored some fabulously lipstick pink snow pants in a next size up for PB at 75% off. Always an eye on a bargain and this bizarre weather we have had this year in the Northwest!


By then my ridiculous boots pained me so greatly that I actually walked around the parking garage, the elevators, and inside the store ... shoe-less. PB said on the way back she couldn't wait until she was an adult. Asked why, she responded that she "couldn't wait to shop shoe-less when she was grown up?" I shake my head. Chalk another one up for my votes for the most irresponsible, but damn those shoes look good pinup mommy of the year. Whooo-Hoo!


Happy Belated Easter to all.
