    Remembering GREAT times at many of these places--with YOU! Can hardly wait to explore new ones, and visit the old again. You introduced me to a few of these--remembering walking the Tilikum bridge with you, exploring OMSI, experiencing Pioneer Square, relishing Blue Star donuts--and more. I look forward to the next adventures in your empire! xoxo
