Epilogue
So I haven’t updated in awhile because I had some priorities to get underway, like a job and a place to live. I am currently living in Bremerton, which is directly across the Puget Sound from Seattle, which means I have to either a) take the ferry or b) drive all the way around the Sound, through Tacoma. Either of these options take about an hour and a half. The ferry is expensive and...

The first night was kind of grim, with my Florida bones not used to the chilly winds. We were to stay with Toad, but his house was unheated. I fled like a coward to a Red Roof Inn, leaving Brianna behind for the night. She was asleep and I had woken up in the...
