Great Job!

Hi everyone - Been a while since I posted a message, so I thought I should post something. In my defense, I'm kind of old so not much new and exciting happens for me. I did find a long-lost Bruce Springsteen CD the other day. That was a pretty big day! Great video of the budding musicians! That's the kind of stuff I love to see on this blog. And happy belated birthday to Erin. I knew it was your birthday and I had it marked on my calendar, but sometimes my calendar and I lose touch with each other.

I thought I would share this picture I found that shows how much the Seattle skyline has changed since we were young'uns. I always tell people that I remember well when the Smith Tower was the tallest building in Seattle, and newcomers find it's hard to believe. Of course I know that this might open me up to some of Chris's old-timer jokes, but that's all right. You can click on the picture to get a larger version.Here is a brief Seattle PI article about the best places to view Seattle from, in case anyone is ever in the area. I have been up in both the Columbia Center and Smith Tower. The Columbia Center offers a much better view of course, but the Smith Tower is pretty cool because they have kept inside looking much like it probably did back in the 1930s http://seattlepi.nwsource.com/visitorsguide/entry.asp?ID=12

I also have another link to share for Janelle. She is trying to get selected to be in a calendar and win a free trip. This link is not R-rated or anything, of course, but probably not for young kids either. Vote early and vote often! She is in the bottom row. http://campusgirlsusa.com/finalists.php
