Wacky Adventures with the Bromfields in the Western Wilderness

Aug 13, 2005 01:55

So TAcoma was all that I expected it to be and then some...it kicked some serious butt. A few of the highlights:
-swimming in the 'about this cold' (really damn cold) Puget Sound with Drew and two of his crazy friends...one of which,Warren, played another role in the trip
-Slacklining and falling on my ass multiple times on the campus of UPS with...suprise, Drew
-Visiting the Ohanapekosh Camping Ground in Mount Rainier National Forest to hike up to the Silver Tail Waterfall in the midst of the Cascade Mountains...really fucking beautiful...also a good thing to do with big bro
-Visiting the ever liberal neighborhood of Capital Hill in Seattle (such a liberal neighborhood that the church of christ has a big rainbow banner hanging off the steeple tower) where Drew's friend Warren lives
-Smoking and Drinking with Drew, Amber, and other variuos housemates (they had this really cool Hooka, I know I butchered the spelling on that - but that is how it sounds, and tasty, literally tasty, apple and strawberry flavored tobacco)
-Visiting the Tacoma Museum of Glass
-Visiting the EMP, Experience Music Project, located in the Seattle Center...where the Space Needle is
-Attending my first ever Rave/Party (you're not supposed to call them Raves anymore...legally at least) which was a blast...I didn't even take any E like several people in attendance chose to...not Drew or Amber...they were kinda looking out for me and all
-Getting to spend an entire unadulterated week with big brother at his new home...it was truly an awesome week.

But as soon as I got back (Monday at around 7 or so at night) I had to begin thinking about packing up to go to school and say my goodbyes to everyone. I'm now at T minus 2 days from departing Chattanooga and I still have a good bit of packing to do, and a few more goodbyes to say...speaking of which, I am meeting MH and NH to walk the Riverwalk tomorrow morning at 10...I should probably get some sleep before then. I'll probably do a farewell for a while to Chattanooga entry or maybe I'll wait to update from Orlando...
