As we head into the last official weekend of summer, I can’t tell you how glad I was to be close to home this month. Seattle is a lovely place to be in August and while I enjoyed my travels, I enjoyed my time here at home even more. As an extra treat this month, I also got to spend time with some former classmates at my 40th high school reunion.

Here’s my travel for this past month.
