Skiing at Snoqualmie

Couple of friends and us went skiing to snoqualmie west summit... pretty fun! I only fell once!!! (yes still on green trails only he he). Snow was fresh, groomed... weather extremely comfortable. Other than the long waiting lines for the lifts the place is highly recommendable.

Amazon Fresh... refreshing

Today we received our first Amazon Fresh order. Overall, quite satisfactory experience. Convenience: Excellent. Their website is pretty well designed, you can easily browse and pick the items that you want. The delivery options are pretty convenient... we chose pre -dawn; before 6:00am in the morning we already had our groceries at our doorstep. Packaging was formidable and even the containers were nice looking. All the items arrived in pristine condition. Quality: Fruit, poultry and fish were pretty good; certainly better than what I would chose by myself (I'm not good at picking stuff on the supermarket). The rest of the stuff was standard, meaning that it would be equivalent to get the stuff anywhere else (e.g. a bag of chips was a standard bag of chips as you would expect). Prices: They are lower than Safeway's and higher than Fred Meyer. As an introductory offer, Amazon takes care of the sales tax. Are we going to shop again on Amazon Fresh? Probably... to be honest supe

Nice Effort Seahawks

The did what they could... the Packers were just too good for them and the weather didn't help. Anyhow, I feel happy for the Seahawks, they had a solid season even though they lack any real superstars. BTW, my wife and I had the opportunity to go to the last game here @ Seattle Vs. Redskings... being at Qwest field for a play-off game was AMAZING... never being in a louder stadium in my life.
