Wednesday wanderings

Now before you get all riled up thinking that "Oh no, is she going to title every blog with the day of the week?" let me assure you that no, I will not be doing such a thing.  Well, the jury's still out on that.  Do you think I would run out of words that begin with the first letter of every day?  I might eventually switch to phrases.

But today is about wanderings.  This morning I wandered down to Seattle with my friend who was picking up her daughter from the airport, which we did just fine.  However, upon leaving the airport, we couldn't get into the proper lane to exit to I-5 northbound, so we did a bit of wandering on 405 instead.  South, I might add.  Oopsiedoodle! Don't ask me how far out of the way we went, because I can't remember!  Suffice it to say that we ended up having to wander west off an exit which put us on another road.  Hrm.  Oh yes--E.Valley Road, wherever the heck that is, then we took a left at my friend's daughter's advice (she was tired from her flight but didn't dare close her eyes til we were safely northbound on I-5!) and found the exit for 405 north.  Woohoo!  Off we wandered---all the way to Everett, where we knew there would be a hookup for the interstate and the tired girl in the backseat could finally get some shuteye.  We did a bit more wandering on the way home--into Taco Bell for one person's taste, and Subway for the other two.  After getting back to Lynden, I had to feed my car at the Safeway fuel pumps or she'd never get me home.  Upon arriving at the farm, I noted my in-laws' white van parked in the driveway, so I got out and wandered back to the garden where they were planting seed.  That was a nice bit of wandering because with 70-foot rows, I got to stretch my legs!  The last bit of wandering that I intend to do today is to my bed!
