day 3 was spent in Denver/Golden. quite a lazy day, i must admit.
we had breakfast at Einstein Brothers Bagels, then dealt with some paperwork for the house. then we got one of my tires balanced (that threw a wheel weight somewhere in Wyoming) and had lunch/dinner at Falling Rock Tap House. after dinner we drove around Denver a bit, stopped at Argonaut to pick up some local beer to take with us, and went back to the hotel.
today, we head east to Kansas.
day 2 started out with finding a Starbucks (in Utah? yeah, there are a couple) we found one in Riverdale. after buying our good cup of joe, and a pound of coffee to be sent to our troops, we headed out. this is the mountainey view from Riverdale:
and here’s the entomological carnage from Day 1:
we left Everett, WA around 9am yesterday (Sept 3rd, Labor Day). a stop in Issaquah for coffee & breakfast, then we headed east across Snoqualmie Pass. at Ellensburg, we turned southeast towards Yakima, and eventually Oregon.
we finally saw hops growing in Yakima, albeit at highway speed:
we left the house yesterday. the buyer’s inspector was just showing up. let’s hope that went well.
also trashed my home-improvement shoes. lots of miles on these, all within the boundaries of this lot (well, and to the dump & back)
