from Ben's mom
Yesterday after church, we needed to make a trip to Bellevue (60 miles north of us)to buy special food for Ben at Whole Foods Market. I was in the mood for adventure and so we kept going north and meandered out to Snohomish/Lake Stevens, where I lived 21 years ago for a short time. I was very impressed that I remembered where my old church was (in Snohomish) and also found our house. With a little help from my mom on the cell phone I found the site of my old school. It no longer exists--which had the effect of making me feel VERY old. Ben threw rocks in Lake Stevens and I bored Mike with long-forgotten tidbits of my life here. I had forgotten how beautiful an area it is and we enjoyed some fall colors which are uncommon in western Washington, the land of evergreens.
