Welcome to the Emerald City, maybe I'll find Oz.



My favorite film has been the Wizard of Oz since before I could walk the yellow brick road. I should have guessed that I would end up in the Emerald City searching for my Oz. I have left behind the great and lesser-than-great things of Provo and come back to my homeland of Washington. I am not entirely certain what I will find while I'm here, but I'm ready to meet the tin mans (tin men?), scarecrows and lions along the way. I've already enjoyed the fine Pike's Place Market in the rain and having the Space Needle nestled right outside of my window. The next year (or maybe longer) of my blog life will most likely consist of my adventures living in the realm of Seattle. Mariners games, Seattle Pacific Science Center, Post Alley, NOT the aquarium (19 dollars? Really, Seattle? It used to be five.), and venturing up to Victoria when the weather improves.

It feels only proper to say, "Toto, I don't think we're in [Utah] anymore!"

  1. I'm glad you're not going to the aquarium.
    I despise aquariums.
