Wagoo with the Crew? RSS

There is nothing quite as exciting as being apart of a Mariners home opener at Safeco Field. This years opener was even a little more special considering it’s the team’s 40th anniversary season. The Safe was filled to the brim with fans who were anxious to express their unbridled optimism for 2017. We currently hold the longest playoff drought in the majors at 15 years. The last time the Mariners tasted the postseason, gas was $1.46 per gallon and Shrek was still in theaters.  This year feels different, though. With a core group of stars in Robinson Cano, Boomstick and...

I’d been scoping the forecast all week with hopes of either a snowy day with soft conditions or a sunny day with good visibility. It became apparent early Saturday morning though that we would actually have both. Wes swooped me to make the mission out to Steven’s pass and the sunrise brought glorious clear skies.

Sitting on a stormy beach and watching the day turn to night is mesmerizing. Feeling the cool bite of the ocean breeze is awe inspiring. Life is all...

Sometimes you have to go all the way up. Being blessed enough to see the top of chair 2 on a bluebird day is one thing. Being able to enjoy the mountain’s majesty with your closest friends is another experience entirely. This weekend was a two day shredfest filled with  laughs, laps and liftlines. Not to mention the kimchi meatloaf from the Aardvark, growlers at Dru Bru and a crispy Digiorno. A sunny Alpy Friday followed by a soggy Central Saturday. The only thing missing was my traditional Snocompton garbage bag poncho when the snow turned to rain. Ca$h me...

Fata Morgana is a natural phenomenon that creates mirages during climate inversions. When warm air sits directly on top of cooler air it creates a band of light on the horizon that distorts far away images beyond recognition. The strange occurrence used to lead sailors to their fates at sea. On this day it led us to see mountains disguised as castles in the sky.
