Jeanesse and I arrived in Seattle on Saturday around 3 pm and by 7 pm we had signed a lease for a condo in Shoreline! This next year (and longer if we choose) we will be living in a small condo with a great view of Echo Lake off of our back porch. We’re a block from a transit center that will get me to work in 25 minutes and Jeanesse in 45 minutes without any transfers. The price we’ll pay is for space, but we both think it will be worth it.

This morning we went to church where we’ll be married. It was my first time there and everyone was very welcoming toward us. I also tested the wireless internet signal in the sanctuary and was glad to see that I had five bars of signal so there should be no problem with the live webcast of the wedding.

These next few days we will be be putting on the finishing touches of the wedding before greeting our guests as they arrive. We look forward to seeing many of you in the coming days. Be forewarned though that the temperature is unlikely to rise above 70 degrees! See you soon!
