Tag-Along Trip to Seattle (via Redmond)
I’ve enjoyed visiting Seattle a few times. Most recently, I decided to tag along on Steve’s weekend business trip to Redmond, which is a suburb city about 26 kilometres outside Seattle.

Running is such a hardwired habit that this seemed the same as telling me to take a break from brushing my teeth while while travelling. Unthinkable! […]
