🎬 Drive-In Date Night: Me, Loki & 50 First Dates at Marymoor Park 🍿
Some people take their partner to the drive-in. I took my dog. Because Loki is cuter, listens better, and doesn’t judge how fast I inhale pizza. Thanks to Movin’ 92.5, I scored a golden ticket (for one vehicle… but Loki rode free like the freeloader he is). 🚗 The Arrival We followed the “Movie Parking…

🎉 Purple Pride, Disco Rides, and a 70–10 Husky Blowout! 🏈
Nothing says Saturday night in Seattle like paying $50 for parking and still having to find your way to Husky Stadium — but hey, it’s all part of the game-day adventure, right?

💙⚾ October baseball in Seattle: Friends & Big Vibes and Let’s play ball 🧢⚾️
There’s nothing quite like October baseball in Seattle. The city hums with energy, the air smells faintly of rain and roasted peanuts, and every corner of the city seems to pulse in shades of navy and teal.

There’s no better way to kick off a new year than to hop across the Pacific and land in a country where the adventure begins the moment you arrive. For New Year’s 2024/2025, Jef and I teamed up with our great friends Paulette and Hamilton, flew into Auckland, and were lucky enough to reunite with…

Loki Rides the Rails: Our September weekend Adventure
On September 7th, 2025, Loki and I embarked on a grand adventure—by Sound Transit Light Rail Link, no less. Our mission: to travel from the shiny new Lynnwood Transit Center all the way down to SeaTac Airport… and back again. First impressions? The train was clean, spacious, and practically sparkling—like someone had just whispered, “Let’s…

Banana Fever Hits Seattle: Our Day with the Savannah Bananas 🍌⚾🎶
Yesterday, Seattle wasn’t just about coffee, rain, or the Mariners—it was about bananas. And not just any bananas, but the Savannah Bananas, baseball’s wildest, wackiest, and most entertaining show on dirt (and sometimes on rooftops, dance floors, or in the crowd). We rolled up not knowing exactly what to expect, and walked away with our…

Boston: The Grand Finale of Our East Coast Adventure
After trains, tours, history, and a lot of eating, we wrapped up our four-city East Coast adventure in Boston for three nights with our friends from London. If Washington, Philly, and New York were the warm-ups, Boston was the perfect grand finale. We checked into the Hyatt Regency Boston—a great base for exploring the city—and…

Three Nights in New York: When Seattle Took Planes and Trains and London Crossed the Pond for the Big Apple 🍎
There’s no such thing as a “quick New York trip.” Even three nights somehow feels like you lived an entire miniseries—minus the commercial breaks. Jef and I hopped on the Amtrak from Philadelphia (bonus points for not losing our luggage, because Amtrak luggage is just… your lap). We rolled into Manhattan and met up with…
