Sleep(ful) in Seattle

We made it to Seattle, we have all our luggage, we got our car (now dubbed "Rhonda"), and we made it to Maggie's apartment.  Life is good.

I think the indignance induced by airport travel (ahem, SFO and that CREEPY new scanner at BOS) brings out my Southern heritage - I find myself wanting to tell people how they should behave.  Oh well... you learn something new about yourself when you travel, right?

I like Seattle - at first glance, it has a perfect combination of city, mountains, and coffee.   The people are nice too - we asked for change for a $20 bill at a store, and the clerk happily offered it to us.  I explained to her that I'm from Boston, where these things just don't happen... and then I had to explain out of my accent that I'm not from Boston, I just live there.

We have a full day of interviews tomorrow, and will be exploring the city with Susan and later with Maggie.
