Wednesday night in Kirkland, Washington, I’ll be reading with Keith Moul at the charming Parkplace Books at 7 PM. There’s an open mike as well. I’d love to see some of my eastside friends there since it’s my first East side reading for The Robot Scientist’s Daughter!
Yesterday it was nearly 90 degrees – crazy hot – so we decided to head north to see the waterfalls at Snoqualmie Falls and Ollalie State Park, and drive around Sammamish Lake and Issaquah, as it has really built up since we lived there in 2000. It was lovely to be outside after a long-enforced rest with a lung infection. This is Glenn and I in the forest at Ollalie State Park:
Then me with the little waterfall there at Ollalie, and then the big Snoqualmie Falls with a bit of the Salish Lodge in the background.
Anyway, a little time in the woods with waterfalls on a hot day is always a good idea. Hard to be down around giant trees and rainbow-misted falls, right?
Next soul-helping outing, Seattle’s Asian Art Museum for the Chiho Aoshima exhibit – maybe Thursday? Remember to do something good for your soul this week! It helps you write, it helps you be thankful, and it’s probably good for your immune system, too, right?
