The past few days have been a lot of fun. A dear college friend, Dawn, came out to Seattle for a visit. I saw her briefly in April when I visited Tamara in Michigan, but it has been about six years since we last got together. Though our lives have changed a great deal since our crazy college days, we still share a love for travel, new experiences, good ethnic foods, strong coffee, and of course our God.
After picking her up from the airport and grabbing a cup of java, we spent some time at the Ballard Locks. My children had fun playing on, in and under the metallic waves near the fish ladder.
I was thankful for a low tide at the beach while Dawn visited. The weather was perfect for our day in the sand and waves.

Today we tried to do a hike at Discovery Park. I passed up the $1.00 map at the visitor's center, thinking that we would be able to find our way. Well, we found our way to the playground several times on the loopy, poorly marked trails. The park was beautiful and the weather was lovely, so it made up for our failed hike. 
It was a busy few days, but a lot fun. Hopefully we won't wait another six years to get together again!*************Time Warp***************

This is one of my favorite memories of us. It was late at night during a blustery Indiana storm. Dawn and I ran through the puddles, mud, and gigantic raindrops on campus with reckless abandon. This girl was crazy and so much fun!
Dorm life. Dawn was always up late, studying or pumping out papers. I could count on a study break with her at any hour of the night.
