The Ski Boy and the Slat Rat have just returned from yet another fabulous dinner in Seattle. Restaurant du Soir was Wild Ginger - an old favorite and the best Asian Fusion around. A total Yum!!!! Tonight's wine (from which I'm delightfully looped - although the Ski Boy would disagree with the adjective delightfully) was an extremely nice French Bandol Rhone - 1998 Domain du Gros Nore. An extraordinarily well made wine - blended to perfection with a very nice spice. It was a total delight to drink and very well priced at $42 bottle in a restaurant. Can anyone do perfect wines better than the French? 8:56:21 PM    comment []

500 PM AST TUE DEC 10 2002 ...Winter storm warning continues... Ooooh oooh - I'm excited. A winter storm warning in Anchorage!!!! It will probably freeze and be an ice rink by the time we get back tomorrow. I hope not. I want to ski!!! Afterall, I am a Slat Rat. 6:17:54 PM    comment []

Oooohhhh - my poor foots. They've museumed, walked, and shopped all day. However, they shouldn't feel too bad - they got two new pairs of shoes at REI. Oh boy!!!! Peter and I definitely did our best to support the local Seattle economy today. In particular, the Experience Music Project gift shop (GREAT gift shop - always a plus museum-wise), REI, and Nordstrom's did well. Mom - mission accomplished on the Lowell front - in spades! 5:14:07 PM    comment []

Another busy day here touristing in Seattle. We did the Experience Music Project (founded by Paul Allen, building designed by Frank Geary). A complete blast. I totally recommend it. Phil, this picture to the left is for you! The special disco exhibit was a hoot. That was my era - who knew it was so socially explosive. 5:06:59 PM    comment []
