It's Chris Bellew of The Presidents of the United States and you can find him many Sundays busking at the market. He's fairly awesome. There were a lot of toddlers rocking out to his music. My favorite was when he played Nirvana's "Grandma Take Me Home" which was suddenly really different in the performing-for-children context.
We spent some time exploring Ballard and I got City Walks: Seattle 50 Adventures on Foot. When we got home I found this note of the Phinney Ridge walk.
Knitters should stop by well-stocked The Fiber Gallery, an inviting yarn store.
We're famous!
We decided to walk over to Woodland Park to throw a frisbee around and then, once we were there, went to the zoo. For once I made the kids go see the animals I wanted to see. Older Son spent much of the time trying to act too cool for the zoo but Younger Son had a lot of questions about the animals. We had planned on dinner at home but instead just rolled down Fremont Ave and had a delicious, though enormous, dinner at Uneeda Burger. Then we waddled home.
We are all completely exhausted but what a great day.

What a lovely day you all had! It rivals my weekend of kite flying, grand-chicken meeting, lunch with son & daughter-in-law, and a movie on the patio of a local brewery. Aren't weekends grand? Especially when it finally stops raining.
Well, here's my idea of a perfect day:
1. visit the dingos at the zoo. How I love the dingos.
2. Then go to The Fiber Gallery and spend lots.
Music is optional.
