Got up way to early after last night. Packed my gear, cleaned up my very foul ice chest, and headed over to Tim and Amy's (my most recent home). I took care of some paperwork, did some computer work and hit the road again.
Traffic was horrible, but I still made it to the ferry terminal in Bellingham on time. Stacy met me at the terminal with lunch / dinner (Mc Donald's!) and she chauffeured me on some tasks (reading material, film, and batteries) after I put the car on (I got to drive it up an elevator!). I boarded the Alaska Marine Highway ferry M/V Columbia at about 6:40 and the ship departed at about 7:20p.
I'm a little sad to be leaving Seattle, there were a lot of people I didn't get to see / or would have liked to have spent more time with. I was home just long enough to remember how much I miss it. However, at the same time I am eager to be moving again after a good rest.
