Yep – today is Mike’s 55th birthday!!!
We started the celebration last night with best friends, Cheryl and Pat, who joined us at Outback Steakhouse for dinner. And this morning Rock, Squeak and I gave Mike his presents.
We gave him tickets to some fun activities. First is a one-hour Segway tour of West Seattle. Mike is fascinated with Segways – the unique personal transportation device – and West Seattle (on a sunny day, but not today) will be a great venue. And I’ll be going too!
Secondly, we have tickets for a boat tour of Deception Pass – up north, on the Strait of Juan de Fuca. Maybe we’ll finally spot some orcas! But we’ll wait until the sun returns before make the trip north.
Lastly, Mike and I are going to a Seattle Seahawks football game! It’s next Sunday and it’ll be the Seahawks v. the Arizona Cardinals – from Mike’s hometown. We’ve never been to a National Football League game together. It should be a blast.
So for today’s somewhat wet and windy day we’re planning to go see a movie, Rise of the Planet of the Apes. I know it’s sci-fi and probably pretty corny, but we have been dying to see it and a blustery day like today is perfect for a movie and popcorn.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY MIKE!

happy belated birthday mike! glad to hear you guys enjoyed the movie. enjoy your many other presents as well mike. that girl sure spoils you! you deserve it ;-)
talk about blustery weather, my friend mio and her dog and i just walked for an hour in the pouring rain. we are supposed to get hit by a pretty big typhoon sometime around 3:00 a.m. i am hoping by then it will have changed course. we saw lots of beautiful birds during our walk on the river, one looked like a cormorant, we had not seen one in that area before, and there was one we couldn't identify. also saw a crane and heron. that's the most types of birds we've seen in one day, in additon we saw a ittle duck.
well, i need to bring my plants indoor while i am still wet then shower and prepare to go into town today.
