After meetings yesterday with Gerard Vanderleun, aka PJM in Seattle, I am once again riding the ferry to Bainbridge Island WA with Sheryl and Madeleine. But the ferry has been delayed – because a dead body was found in the Puget Sound! Good thing I am wearing my latest mystery writer hat – a newly-purchased summer Borsalino of Ecuadoran straw. Maybe I can get to the bottom of this! [You can't even get to the bottom of your latte.-ed. Who asked you?]
UPDATE: Nothing yet… As the ferry pulls into Bainbridge, waters still…. but wait….

While you are here, you have to stop in at Byrnie Utz Hats on the 300 block of Union Street. Probably the last old-style hat shop in Seattle.

Bisbee is worth a day’s visit, a burned-out mining town reborn artsy. A terrific restaurant, I forget the name, is near Optimo but open wkends only.
