Day 1 & 2:

Still can’t connect to the hotel’s wireless. Arrgghhhh. No pics until we get back. Sorry.

We didn’t make it to the hotel for lunch. No big deal. After we got there, we were shuttled over to the Space Needle with the rest of the family members. We gathered on the lawn below for wedding pictures. Then we were whisked past the lines of tourists and up one of the elevators to the 100 foot level function space. We were given passes that let us up to the observation deck for free.

The wedding went off well. Between the ceremony and the start of dinner, Bill and I escorted my mother and my aunt up to the top. We found out that our passes also let us by-pass the line at the elevators to come pack down. Cool!

The reception is a blur, and we finally got back in about midnight.

Today, we drove out to my brother’s house near Kent. Both families were there. We had lunch, then the bride & groom opened all the presents.

The land where his subdivision sits was clear-cut in 1911. He showed us a couple of cedar stumps and logs in his front yard that are remnants of that logging effort.

We’re back at the hotel now, planning our assault on the city tomorrow.
