Vance, as you know: Frances Farmer will have her revenge on Seattle! Mikail–I had a great time in your town, except for the Norovirus (see today’s post.)

Rad–I saw one of your deans–see today’s post, too.

What, nobody's going to comment on your spaceless spelling of Nevermind?

As a Seattleite who lives, quite literally, four blocks from downtown I welcome you, Historiann. As Seattleites surround you in our carefully planned cliches of flannel, coffee, and grunge we can’t get enough of, we ask that you just don’t rangle us up in your Colorodan cowboy gear. Lassos, after all, give rope burn and as city clickers we don’t take kindly to cowboy hate wearin’ folks.

Since I can’t be there, I expect some snappy reportage, Historiann. I’ll rock some flannel this weekend in your honor.

I agree, btw, with your take on the OAH, which probably explains why I’ve only attended one in my career.

Enjoy the fish.

Oh, and it will be 65 and sunny here today–nice enough for a long walk with Hotshot Harry, Jr.

Wish I could be there…say hi to my dean.

Have a good time with RL historians, Historiann. I’ve made my way east (no reason) where it is wet.

Have fun in Seattle, Historiann! I hope the weather for the OAH in Seattle is better than the weather here at ASECS in Richmond. It’s so cold, gloomy, and rainy.

Four hour drive from Boulder to Greeley earlier today (typically 1 hour and change).

Have a good one. Coldest winter I ever spent was the Saturday afternoon of AHA weekend there years back, hiking up past the Space Needle to Queen Anne Hill, after what turned out to be a very successful interviewing day. And I missed what turned out to be the only huge snowstorm in Chicago that winter, which I greatly regretted.

My home (Puddletown) is not far from Seattle. I miss the rain, and the gray skies. Too bad you and the gang aren’t there long enough to go hiking in the Cascades!
