susandennisSo! It turns out there are two ways to get to 'downtown' Columbia City* from the light rail station.
There's one that is flat and an easy and interesting 4 blocks. And there's one that is two major hills and 8 blocks. We'll call the latter one The One I Took In The Blazing Hot Sun last time. We'll call the former one, The One I Found Today.
Doh!
I think I went the hard way last time because it is the obvious way if you are in a car. I did not even think to suss out a different way. And I don't know what made me do it today. I astound myself and not always in a good way.
So, while I was waiting and waiting and waiting at Geraldine's... they were crowded PLUS the waiter had trouble seeing me - I'm such a tiny, invisible little thing - and only stopped by every week or so - at least that's what it seemed like....
I had plenty of time to ponder and I struck a deal with moi. IF I walked back to the station using the hard way - up that giant hill and double the distance, I could use my workout user pick on this entry.
Fair is fair so here you are.
*Columbia City is a 3.5 block shopping district of a Seattle neighborhood. It's probably 6 or so miles from here.
