Holy hell another cleaning day. By the way, every day I’m getting more and more sick. Awesome. We woke up made a little trip to the QFC to get more cleaning supplies and some coffee. Then we went to work. After we were done you could lick the floors. I don’t recommend it, but you’d probably survive. In the middle of this cleaning Aaron decided to pack the car, which we quickly found out that we had too much stuff to fit in the car. Great. So we had to downsize a bit. I had to go from 3 bags and one shoes bag to only 2 bags. Outrageous, I know. Of course, conveniently, the U-boxes have been gone for a day so he had to drive down to Auburn and put the stuff we couldn’t fit in the car into storage. We finished and had the walk through around 4 and then sat outside, because Aaron’s CDs were supposed to show up with UPS around 5. We just laid in the courtyard waiting for Aaron’s 3 boxes of CDs… They show up after the trip down to Auburn. Perfect. We took our picture in front of the apartment and headed to the 9lb for a drink and a few pictures before we headed to our friend Max’s house. The 9lb hammer was where Aaron and I met for the first time. He was “interviewing” me for the band. The table behind the picture below was where we sat and chat about the band and probably everything else that came to mind. We hung out forever that night just talking. Crazy that’s where is all began. Classy, I know. We left the 9lb and headed to Max’s to hang out and bbq. I ended up heading to bed early, because my health was going downhill. The next day was our last day in Seattle. I pulled the pictures off my work laptop and then handed it back in to amazon. Aaron and I headed to Paseo’s one last time to get the most perfect Cuban sandwich. Oh my goodness this sandwich is so good. On our way through Ballard we stopped at Bopstreet records to hand over a few CDs to our friend Bob and Dave that own/work at the record store. Bob was the one at Aaron’s last show that just loved the music. I bought a Louvin brothers record and they are shipping it to Texas for me. We left Bopstreet and went down to cupcake royal one last time so I could get the lavender cupcake. Yummmmmy! As we were walking back to the car we past back by Bopstreet and they were blasting Aaron’s record out into the streets of Ballard. So awesome! It’s also ironic that Ballard is the music community that Aaron was really trying to break into for years and as we leave he’s getting calls from bookers and Bopstreet is blaring the album. Just funny how that happens. We left Ballard, dropped off the cable box and headed out. Seattle in the review and stuck in traffic. We started our having our second disagreement, but once I could get Aaron to just stop talking everything was a bit better. Once we actually got on the road and started driving through the mountains we just started realizing how lucky we were. We are so blessed to be doing what we are doing and driving through the most beautiful part of the country. We were headed to Yakima to stay with our friend Nate. Nate was the drummer in “The Grandtours”. We got to the house around 7ish, hung out with Nate and his wife Emma at the local Yakima brewery then headed home for a relaxing evening.
