I had lunch today in a secret spot Owen had told me about. On the south west corner of University and 1st there’s a parking garage. Go into the garage, catch the elevator to floor R. The roof of the garage has a stunningly sparkly view of Puget Sound, West Seattle, Bainbridge Island, and–best of all!–the Olympics. I sat on the fire escape munching a Super Veggie Burrito from Taco Del Mar, watching the ferries go in and out, laughing at people scuttling below, and enjoying the freakishly sunny January day. Ahh. Late winter paradise.
