A Quick Costco Trip

We didn't need much, but wanted to pick up some vitamins and blueberries at Costco before we left. We went over to Burlington late in the afternoon thinking it was late enough to have Forry's favorite gourmet meal -- a Costco Polish dog. They are now serving a barbecued beef brisket sandwich, but they took churros off their menu! We always have two Polish dogs, one with sauerkraut, two drinks and then split a churro... Guess we won't be doing that anymore.

We came back across the Skagit River to Mount Vernon and made a stop at the Safeway store that is close by Riverbend RV Park. I needed to pick up orange juice and milk for our breakfasts. I know, I know that Costco carries both of those items, but the quantities are way too large the two of us. I also got bagels there as well. You have to buy two six-bagels sleeves at Costco and that's just way too many.

We've been enjoying the Little League World Series games this weekend. There was a team from nearby Sammamish that is the Northwest champion, so there was a local connection. There was a good Mariners game today as well (we won't talk about the one yesterday!). And to top it all off, the second half of the PBR (Professional BullRiders) season started in Tulsa this weekend and they televised all of it!

I talked with Daughter MM this afternoon and she said the stage striking went well. Sounds like she has a carload of soiled costumes to launder before they are stored away with the ones that went to the dry-cleaners. We're talking about a lazy trip to the beach tomorrow afternoon. We'll see what develops...
