04/25/2021 #MillersNoshNwalk week 8: We took a bit of a journey up to the Tulip Festival on Saturday with the constant accompaniment of a nice little drizzle fo shizzle. We planned our outing around going to Skagit County Burgers which was in nearby Sedro Woolley. The joint was in a diner car and kind of a fun atmosphere. We drove through just in time as there was a stream of cars that came in after us. I got a Seattle Dog, LeAnn got a burger and Jaylin got the chicken strips basket. The food was decent, but not awesome. We cave it 2.5/5 stars. Prolly the first and last time we would go there. They did let us come in and use their 3x3 foot bathroom, which was smaller than any airplane bathroom I have ever used, but likely more memorable than the food. 😆 Then we drove over to Tulip Town, which was still crazy with people even with reservations and the ‘social distancing’ guidelines in place. There were probably about 3,000 people milling around in the mucky fields as it was raining ag...

04/22/2021 Here is the latest Austin and #SeattleToBahiaBlanca update: Austin has been doing some amazing things at college! He applied for a council position on the BYU PBSA (Pre-Business Student Association) and was selected for that out of a large group of applicants! Then recently, he took the FLATS (Foreign Language Achievement Testing Services) for the Spanish language and passed all levels with A grades, thus earning 16 credits towards his degree. What a blessing it has been for him to learn a language and to see how it is benefiting him in his life. For his injury recovery, he is going to PT for his foot. It sounds like it still hurts quite a bit, but is getting stronger all of the time. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ While walking from #SeattleToBahiaBlanca the past few weeks, I have been able to get outdoors more often with nicer weather, and even spent a few days at Long Beach with Jaylin, Kelly, Ruth and my Parents! It was so nice to walk on the beach while it was...

04/17/2021 #MillersNoshNwalk week 7: We hit up the Longhorn BBQ this week for a tasty meal on a perfect spring day. I ordered the ‘Rustler’ with three meats and a sideboard. Got the ribs, chicken and German sausage. Nom Nom! LeAnn ordered the brisket sandwich and we had garlic mash and Mac n cheese on the side. It was yummilicious! We don’t go out to BBQ often, so this was a nice change of pace. We took the food to nearby Hill Tower park, where LeAnn was surprised with an Apple Watch! The special occasion being - that she makes every occasion special! We then took a walk around the park to enjoy the lovely weather.

04/10/2021 #MillersNoshNwalk week 6: Guest starring the amazing, @jayy.millerr ! We got this girl back from college yesterday, so she joined us on today’s excursion. It just doesn’t get any better than this! We went to Frugals in Auburn, which, as the sign says, is ‘Voted Best in the Northwest’ , and they were fantastic burgers. They are drive through only, but speedy and friendly service. They even had real fry sauce! which is a rarity in the PNW. Though the fry size was like McDs happy-meal sized fries, they were still tasty. We all voted and gave it an 8/10. Took our food and drove over to Game Farm Park to Nosh. For the walking grand finale, we were pressed for time, so walked all of the way from the car to our doorstep when we got home! 😉
