Awake: 7:14am Temp 63 sleep 6+48 overcast….midday, sunny
overnight @ Bothell, WA.
After breakfast, we visit the Friday Farmers Market & annual garage sale
held @ the Country Village area we were yesterday. Kathy checked the
produce prices & they were a little overpriced & many not grown locally.
We thought the garage sale items would be the usual: “stuff or junk” from
someone’s attic but…..surprise! Most things were new or in like new
condition. It was like store items that were overstocked, on the shelves
too long, or simply not selling. There were some good deals & it was tough
on us not to buy “things for later.” We survived with only a few small
purchases for Kathy & a new 3/8” cordless Makita for $5.00 for me. I
tested it first & afterwards & it works just great. The proceeds for this
annual garage sale will benefit the Homeward Pet Adoption Center. During
our browsing, Katrina calls from Denver. She just finished a tennis game &
will call us later with a phone number for a couple that recently moved to
Sequim from Alaska. Later Kathy calls Nancy in Sequim & sets up a time for
visiting on Saturday.
@ 6:00pm we leave to join the crowd for “Music in the Park Concert Series”
@ the Bothell Landing Amphitheatre. We each took a healthy power bar, sat
in our camping chairs & listened to some good ole fashioned folk singing &
music. It was really nice.
Every Friday, Bothell has music in the park during July & August.
Later we watch a satellite movie: “Nell” with Jody Foster while eating
popcorn & cheese. The death of a hermit woman brings a small-town Southern
doctor into the backwoods, where he discovers she had a daughter who’s
been raised completely apart from civilization. He becomes fascinated… &
so does a research scientist @ a nearby university, that wants to
“capture” the woman. Good movie for the curious & wanna-be linguists.
1994.
