This week is August 18th

Welcome to the Trebing Family blog!  We moved to Washington from North Carolina and we want to keep family and friends updated on our new life here in the beautiful Pacific Northwest!

This week my dad came out for a visit and we had a great time.  We went to Boeing's Museum of Flight and then down to Belltown for dinner at Vita E Bella, our favorite Italian restaurant, on Friday night. We spent Saturday down at the waterfront.  We took a cruise around the harbor and then had lunch at Ivar's. 

No trip to Seattle is complete without a trip to the market:

    
Our friend Luke is a lieutenant in the Seattle Fire Department.  He gave us a tour of the fire boat and it was so cool!  Thanks Luke!!

We have seen some very interesting wildlife since we have been here.  We have also heard them as well  (the packs of coyotes will bring you right out of a very sound sleep).  Nothing was as cool as photographing a bald eagle from our back door.

 

It was hard to get close without scaring him so the pic is not great, but it was still awesome!
