Man, it was HOT today!! Especially riding my bike around these hills!!! I attempted to get a Washington License today, but there were about 925 people at the DMV, sweating like it was a Turkish Bath! Needless to say, I split, and decided to ride down by the water and take some pics of my journey. Here you go, although once class starts next week and my internship and working, I don't imagine I'll get many chances to just be a tourist like I was today. But when I get visitors from the South, I'll know where to take you all...(hint-hint!)
One of the main streets around here, still hard to pronounce!
The line to get on the Vashon Island Ferry....
Side view of the ferry as I began my ride down the beach...
...riding with no hands and taking a picture of it!
Some pics of the beach near Lincoln Park (not the band, that's Linkin Park!)...
more beach....
see the ferry out there?...
more of the same beach, as I'm heading to....
...the Mars Hill intern/student local pub!! They have couches and it's a very cool atmosphere inside. Mars Hill members frequent this establishment to discuss theology over good beer! Now THAT'S, Reformed!!...
...and I was hot and sweaty from my ride, and I decided to have one beer, seeing as how I won't be able to afford another one for a loooong time. This was a great beer, it's called a "Whistling Pig Hefeweizen", from the Leavenworth Brewery, where our Colville team stopped last week. (the town, not the brewery...)
See you tomorrow!!
It's pronounced Font-la-roy, I think.
ReplyDeleteI know why it's called Lincoln Park, because of all the Lincoln logs. ;)
Vashon Island. My family moved from the east coast to Vashon in the mid-70s. Sometimes I miss it terribly - it's beautiful there.
ReplyDeleteJosh is right about the pronunciation of Fauntleroy. :)
Blessings and God speed!
Lisa, for the Seifert fam.
The bike ride looks way more fun than waiting in line for the ferry. Thanks for all the great pics! We miss you around here, although it's not for lack of activity. We've been very busy this past week.
ReplyDeleteKeep on keepin' us posted, Bro - we'll ride this journey with you!
love from your B-fam!
