A trip in the Way Back Machine. Well, October 2010, anyway.

These are from my sister Anne's visit.  First stop, Pike Place Market.  And coffee, of course!

A brief cruise by Beecher's Cheese.  Amazing mac and cheese.  Beyond description.

Next stop, Experience Music Project Science Fiction Museum : http://www.empsfm.org/  Well, the outside, anyway.

The next day back in Tacoma, we drove around the Five Mile Drive in Point Defiance Park, the tippy topmost point of Tacoma.  Where I live now is just off the map to the south!  Anne and I were amazed to see this kit of raccoons.  Jokes were made about being surprised to see live raccoons instead of roadkill (me.)     Looking at this map makes me realize that I have achieved one of my dreams (well, almost) of living on an island.  This is about as close as I'd want to get to living on an island - I still have all the convenience of living on the "mainland" but can kind of pretend that I'm on an island, with water and mountains in view from my Dollhouse.  Also a shot of a beautiful Japanese maple.

Our last night out to dinner at the Rosewood Cafe.  http://www.rosewoodcafe.com/about.html Yum.
