June Thoughts

I woke up yesterday with this deer (look closely) grazing below my bedroom window.

No, not in Seattle.

During this "watershed" year, we are in the midst of a real estate bubble here in Seattle.  Which means the Seattle house is worth something.  The city itself has and is becoming way too intense for me.  Too many people, too many "chi-chi" restaurants, too hard to get around, old landmarks bulldozed for copy-cat architecture with, in my opinion, no soul or heart.

But here, here where the deer grazes in the fields, the girls can be dogs, not pets.  They can walk off leash with no one yelling at them.  They can roll in freshly cut grass, lay in the sun, smell the flowers.   They can swim in a river without worry about a $500 fine.

It's time to make this move.

Murphy's Day.
