We decided to go to spend a 3-day weekend in University Place Washington, near Tacoma, with our friends the Nickels, and we packed a lot into a few days! We went to a neighborhood pool, where Jared launched kids over and over during a game of 500. Even though Adam had to work quite a bit, he and Torin spent some quality time together.
We went to a Tacoma Raineers minor league baseball game. Jared even got a ball! We sat on the grass hill down the right field line. It made getting it easier for our crew to get up and down and up and down without bothering anyone.
This was the first minor league we've been to since being students at BYU and going to a game in Orem.
Adam and Marnie live just down the street from Chambers Bay, a huge golf course that is hosting next year's US Open. It is built right on the sound. It is a links style course, so not many trees, but it is a public course and there are walking and running trails throughout the course. We took a number of walks and runs there while we were visiting. Adam, Marnie, Dani, and I had a delicious dinner one night on the patio of the clubhouse.
There is also a large park at the end of the golf course that we spent hours playing on the huge play structures with all the kids. It was great to see the Nickels and reconnect. They certainly live in a beautiful area of the northwest!
