    "Talking of Laura Bush I hear that she has removed all paintings from the White House which are not by American artists. Is that meant to make her seem patriotic, artistic or both? Could foreign paintings be a threat to national security? I wonder who advised her as to which were American and which were not? Or indeed which were paintings."

Homeward Bound

Lummi_island3_3

It's been almost two months now that I've been living in Savannah and I've already scheduled a trip back home to Washington.  I leave tomorrow and will return in a week.  I depart at the godforsaken hour of 6:15am (that's a 3:15am wake up call).  But it's oh so worth it because I'm scheduled to arrive in Seattle before noon.  Then it's off to Cafe Campagne for either Oeufs en meurette or Croque-savoyard, depending on my mood.  I then have seven jam packed days before me of doing everything I've missed and seeing everyone I've missed in the 8 weeks I've been away.  Is there really anything better than returning home?

Café Campagne was my favorite spot on weekend mornings when I lived in Seattle. I would sit in there and soak up the ambiance and savour their delicious food and coffee as long as I could before they kicked me out!
Enjoy your trip back. Hope you have some good weather!
