Greetings from Snohomish

I was craving eggs benedict on Friday night for some reason, so I wrote to Chris to find out whether she might be around on Saturday to have lunch at First and Union, which she was, so we did! Then we walked around Snohomish, stopping in a couple of stores, wandering by the river, and following a bit of the Centennial Trail to see parts of the town we hadn't visited before, including several houses slated to be set on fire for the fire department to practice on. The local Hindu community was celebrating Holi outside the community center, so we got to see lots of happy people covered in bright colors.

Kate kept me up to date on the Orioles game, which they tied right before we got home, though they lost it in extra innings. Then we talked to my parents and Adam and Haley about Passover travel on Google Meet, watched most of the UConn-Alabama game, and now we're watching the rest of Ripley, which I wish I actually liked instead of just admiring the cinematography. The performances are so muted that it's impossible to feel much for any of the characters, and I know Andrew Scott can act, so this must have been the director's choice. The Caravaggio flashbacks were my favorite part.
