Seattle ThunderSnow 2008: Snow Day!!!

One thing I don’t miss about Iowa is the freezing cold and ice. But a snow day can be nice every once in a while.

This was the view outside my window.

I took a walk down to REI to buy some cozy socks. (Save 10% if you buy any 3 pairs!)

My friend Akemi built an awesome snow cat.

Note: This is an American style snow cat. Japanese snowcats/men have only 2 balls (snicker snicker) and no nose. They look more like him More Japanese snowmen >

And then I ended the day checking out a new restaurant on Capitol Hill, Oddfellows Cafe + Bar that just opened today.

The inside looks pretty cool too, it’s kind of like an old school house. It feels like a cross between a coffee shop and pub.

The menu looks pretty good too. But I didn’t end up trying anything because my wife made me come home :(
