Bonnie, who I studied with in Scotland, is visiting with her friend Yael until Tuesday! We went to Cafe Besalu, the Ballard Farmers’ Market, and then got lost trying to get to the Mac and Jack’s brewery for the tour. So we saw parts of Redmond that are not worth seeing really.  Then we came back, ate at the Good Fries Place, and walked around the Locks and salmon ladder for a bit. Finally rounded things off with watching an episode of Real Housewives of New Jersey and deciding that one lady strongly resembles Jafar.

Today was my 2nd to last day at the Burke, and I got the final mock-up of new Ethnology landing pages done, as well as an analytics report on Mammals of Washington.  Ethnology curator & co. seemed to like the mock-ups, but they also seemed to forget that change is good. And the user is not like me. Etc. Hopefully it gets implemented in the near future but who knows. Tonight I finally visited Molly Moon’s ice cream in Wallingford, which I highly recommend now. Birthday cake flavored ice cream is the bomb.  Also The Grok is going to hopefully write a post about analytics for non-profits thanks to our Twitter messaging. Yay!
