Then after a quick 2 days back at work, I was off to the midwest!! I got to fly in to Minneapolis, and spend an evening at home with my dad and kitties :) Then mom and I drove down to Iowa the next morning....my best friend Elizabeth got married on Saturday, and I was one of her bridesmaids!! It was an amazing day, full of yellow! :) Some of the highlights were sweet corn, lemon cake, square dancing, and a concert by my favorite acapella group from ISU, Shy of a Dozen. It was then a quick drive back north, and I was back in Seattle again...


After an exciting week at work, trudging through swamps and getting eaten up by bugs and blackberry patches, yesterday I did some hiking!!...There is an EC crew camping at Alpine Lakes next week, and they needed some extra help to hike out tools Saturday...so I went, and it was STUNNING!!!
