Mariners 7, Orioles 4

Today was a great day for baseball. The 6-run second inning was particularly fun. Also, I caught a foul ball - my first ever. Too bad the hitter was some rookie with a .150 batting average. Oh well. Maybe he'll be famous someday... Posted by Picasa

We've arrived in our first destination for the summer-Seattle. We haven't done anything really excited yet other than enjoy the weather and trees. We'll be here for one month, and during that time, we'll visit downtown (Pike Place Market, Uwajimaya, the ferries, Mariners games) and eat at a lot of really good restaurants. Near the end of our stay in Seattle, I'll visit Boston for a few days (June 4 - 7) to look for an apartment. Posted by Picasa
