A true Seattle Landmark, no doubt. I was so excited to learn that the house that inspired the Disney movie UP! is located here in Seattle! Nestled between (literally) the Ballard Blocks shopping center is the tiny house of what was Seattle's Last Super Hero, Edith Macefield. Edith bought the house in 1966 and watched [...]

THE MOSIAC STAIRS
I’ve had these steps on my San Francisco to-see list for so long!!! I was glad that we were able to get away from our busy party planning schedule to visit the famous mosaic stairs. The 16th Avenue Tiled Steps project has been a neighborhood effort to create a beautiful mosaic running up the risers [...]
ICE CREAM CRUISE
Living in Seattle for over 10 years, I’ve never heard about this cruise. I love doing tourist-y things for the first time. Mind you, I’ve pretty much done every tourist-y thing there is to do Seattle…at least 5 times!!! So you can say that I’ll be a great tourist guide for anyone wanting to visit [...]

FOLLOW-UP
Today was my 2 week post-op check. Doc says I’m healing really well and that I can finally remove all the steri strips which was a real relief because it was causing me to itch real bad. The latest pathology report did conclude that the type of cancer I had was indeed Leiomyosarcoma and that [...]
UNDER THE SEA
Today is my first outing since my discharge from the hospital. I’m easily exhausted so I can’t be on my feet for too long which is why I prefer to stay home. My family made plans to go to the Seattle Aquarium today. I’m sure they’re tired of being cooped up in the house. As [...]
