   We are on our way to Seattle (ugh). Beautiful area, lunatic people. Anyway,   
   not much to say on the way up. We are on a time crunch. I may try to post a   
   little on the trip back home. We have covered this route so many times we   
   are almost oblivious to the sights. I do have plans to try a new route home   
   this time so I may have something to report.
