Paul only had to work half a day on Friday, so at midday we went to the post office, UPS, and Blazing Bagels for lunch, then after we ate we drove to Edmonds to Picnic Point Park at low tide. We met a woman in the parking lot whom I liked immediately because she had picked up a shell, then discovered that there was "a little guy" in it so she asked us to return him to the beach for her. We put the little crab in one of the tidepools, then walked all the way down the beach looking at more crabs, snails, and anemones, plus gulls and crows. Like many Puget Sound beaches, the train tracks parallel the shore, so we also got to see trains.
Since we were up near Lynnwood, we stopped at Target to get a little grill, at Ashley Furniture to look at beds, and at Alderwood Mall for dinner in the food court (Paul had Anthony's Seafood, I had Thai Go with the custom-made noodles and frozen red bean boba). So it was a very full but exciting day with lots of animals, good food, and a salt water beach! When we got home, we watched the Mariners until it was obvious the Pirates were going to beat them, then we watched this week's new Silo episode (better every time, mostly very well acted) and another episode of The Night Agent (not as well acted but still reasonably interesting).
