Nosh N Walk: Week 18 and 19

07/15/2021 #millersnoshnwalk week 18 (and 19!) LeAnn and I were planning to go out and have a nice belated Anniversary dinner last Saturday night, when we got a call from our friends the Fisher’s and we’re invited to go out on their boat in the Sound. We excitedly jumped on that train (boat) and joined them for a beautiful afternoon on the water. We went from Des Moines Marina up and around Blake island. It was perfectly perfect weather, and made me fall even more in love with the PNW. Besides the beauty of enjoying nature, it was wonderful to spend some time with good friends. After getting back to the Marina, we went up the hill to Wally’s, one of the best Seafood and chowder houses in all the land. Prolly not many locals don’t know about the fantasticness of this place, and it surely did not disappoint. I had my favorite sourdough clam chowder bowl and LeAnn had Blackened Ling Cod Tacos. Nom Nom! #millersnoshnwalk week 19: We invited Jaylin to hang out with us for the night and were blessed to have her consider us worthy to party with. We were feeling pretty hip getting to hang out with a cool college kid! (That, and the fact that we bought dinner and then we’re taking her out to the movies might have added some extra incentive 😉) We ordered sandwiches from the best sandwich shop in Milton (yeah, there might only be one of those, but that is beside the point!) We have loved these sandwiches ever since moving down this way a few years ago. They broil the sammies and they are AHHmazing! The meats are super fresh and the ingredients are spot-on tasty! LeAnn had Oliver’s Special: Turkey, Ham, American and provolone cheese, Lettuce tomatoes and sprouts. I went with the Philly Cheesesteak, and loved it. Afterwards, we headed up to the theater and saw Black Widow. It was a fun movie and great to be able to be with Jaylin.

Nosh N Walk: Week 49

#millersnoshnwalk week 49: We had the pleasure of hanging out with the Scurvy Dogs Book Club on the last day of the month. We had some trouble getting the gang together this month, but squeaked by on 2/28 to keep our streak alive! Going into our 11th year of the book club, we have met every month and have now read 129 books. This past month we read The Lincoln Highway, by Amor Towles, it was a good read. We met up at BBQ Pete’s and had some fantastic BBQ and invited the Scurvy Wives. I had a prime rib dip sandwich and LeAnn had the ‘Sandwich with No Name’ - sliced brisket, cheese and crispy onion straws. They even had free soft serve ice cream cones! So good.

While on my Journey to complete walking 24,901 miles of #ToddlingAroundTheEquator, I am focusing these walks on the amazing missionaries that I know that are serving around the world. I am dedicating walking a marathon of miles for these missionaries and tag them as #missionarymarathons. I am so grateful to these faithful missionaries for dedicating their lives to teaching the Gospel of Jesus Christ! This week I have walked 26.2 miles for Sister Dummer, who is serving in our Ward. We have had the privilege of having her over to our house for lessons and for dinner. It has been great to get to know her and see her beautiful smile and the love she has for the Gospel. She has been in the mission now for almost a month, and I can tell she is going to help change so many lives for the better as a missionary! Here is a bit more about Sister Dummer, so you can get to know more about her and why she is so special: She is from Layton, UT And loves Running, hiking, swimming, baking, being with f...

I am dedicating walking a marathon of miles for these missionaries and tag them as #missionarymarathons. I am so grateful to these faithful missionaries for dedicating their lives to teaching the Gospel of Jesus Christ! These past few weeks I have walked 150.4 miles for Elder Brendan Murphy, who is my nephew. (Gotta go a few extra marathons for my family!) I decided to walk the distance between the first two Cities he has served in in Finland, Turku and Lahti. Brendan is a special man, with a beautiful smile. He is intelligent, kind and thoughtful. It has been a privilege to watch him grow up and become such a man who is now serving the Lord with all his heart, might, mind and strength. It is an honor to be his uncle. Here is a bit more about Elder Murphy, so you can get to know more about him and why h...
