I had a GREAT time but they did steal my leftovers

If you are staying with my friends who live in Woodinville, Washington, (and I heartily recommend it, if you are in the area) do not try to correct the spelling of their town's name. They want it to be spelled like that. Also, you will probably get lost on the way there. (It might be my fault if you are in the car driving and listening to me. I was reading ahead on the directions. It isn't that "keep in the left lane" was wrong; it was just prescient.)

You may bring pets. Your hosts will call ahead to see whether they are indoor pets or outdoor pets, and what accommodations they require. Make something up, if you have chickens. "Oh, any room with linoleum floors should be fine, as long as you put a little straw or wood shavings down. Tra la la tra la la." That yellow dog is a little bouncy. Could they put it in a kennel while your Pets are there? Thank you.




Try to get the room with the John Deere tractor lamp.





You will want to spend most of the time either playing with the lamp, or else in the kitchen eating cupcakes, admiring the view, and using the colorful decision-maker fortunetelling glass canisters to make important life decisions for you. Is there any juice to drink while I eat these cupcakes? Do they have a nicer looking pitcher for me to pour it out of? They don't??
