Your gonna need a Brinks truck.


As I write this in late January, I'm reflecting on the past couple of months and how busy everything has been, and how much money we have spent. Right after Thanksgiving (thanks Wendy), we decided to head out to Orcas Island for a little R&R at a seaside cabin. This time of year, ferry rates have gone down and the lines are not that long.

On Orcas island, we shopped, ate, and ate. From the Sunflower Cafe for lunch to Lu Lu's Pasta Rustica for dinner, to an outstanding, post Moran State Park lunch at Cafe Olga in, you guesed it, Olga. Before we left the island, we did find a gem that should not be missed in Teezer's Cookies. One suggestion is to make sure you bring plenty of money when hanging in the San Juans. Dining prices are about 20% or so higher than nearby cities so get used to it.

As December set in, things were very hectic with our Term Life Insurance business, and teh launch of our Teachers Retirement website. Kudos to the folks at Bayview Limousine for getting us to and from the airport at such crazy hours. If you need a great Seattle limo service, Bayview is it. We did spend a few weeks down in cold South Florida for the Holidays and it feels good to be back. Until next time, check out my Yelp profile and let me know what you think.
