Daily Dose 7/27

I am still bitter from the USA Mexico game yesterday, our worst loss
ever to them! I hope those boys on the field learned some very valuable lessons!

It was a great weekend in the Northwest, I had a great time at the Sounders game on Saturday. I also want to Thank Steve & Caroline for inviting us over for the party (Those Ribs were awesome)

Last night I was out in Carnation for a dinner on an organic farm put on by the chef from the Boat House Cafe in Belltown. What great food and company!
