2" inches of great packable snow fell in Mill Creek. Jackie taught Joe how to make a proper snowman!

Seahawks Superbowl Parade

February 5, 2014

This Wednesday was the Seattle Seahawks Superbowl XLVII Parade.
#Celebrate48

It took almost 2 hours by bus to get into Seattle from Mill Creek and it was PACKED! Standing room only once we got to McCollum Park ‘n Ride.
My bus route gets off I-5 at James and goes down 4th Ave, where the parade was taking place. Our bus instead of stating the route information digitally, said: “GO SEAHAWKS!” Those people already lining the streets screamed with excitement like we were part of the parade already!

After going into work for a bit, we hiked up the hill to 4th Ave to wait for the parade to arrive. Waiting for the parade to begin on a windy 22 degree clear day on 4th Ave & University St, 3 blocks from my office

The parade crowd dispersing from 4th Ave down University St. 700,000+ at the parade, well over the population of Seattle

Superbowl XLVIII

February 2, 2014

GO SEAHAWKS! Yes I may have jumped on the 12th Man bandwagon this season for my 2nd team (I will always be part of Titletown's Packer Nation first and foremost), but Seattle pride is infectious! Go Russell Wilson, Steven Hauschka & J.R. Sweezy, all NCSU alum! 


Ribs are in the smoker and the sun is shining. I'm feeling good about the Super Bowl. Go Seahawks and Russell Wilson!

No one could have expected the outcome of this game. Seahawks were on the top of their game against the Denver Broncos!
