“I love interior design, however my approach is that it should be active. If you love ping pong do away with the dining room table, if you love your motorcycle maybe that will be more important in the home than a fancy credenza, If you love surfing I can’t think of a better thing to hang on the wall than a surfboard. These objects are extensions of one self.”

Train Travel
Everytime I take the train I wonder why I don’t take the train more. As soon as they add wifi, it’s officially the only way to go from Seattle to Portland. The stations are downtown, the chairs are comfy, they show second run movies, plus there’s a dining car, it’s got it all. Intercity train travel basically falls in between vanpools and personal trucks, so not terrible. Routes on my list:
-Seattle to Eugene
-Seattle to Vancouver
-Everett to Glacier NP
The last route is an all night ride, so you get to Whitefish, MT around 7am. That means you can leave Friday night and then be skiing on Big Mountain the next morning and back for work Monday morning. Who’s game?

I can’t get enough of this guy. Trying to figure out a way to make him a bigger part of my life.
Another story occurred while Henderson was playing for the Oakland A’s. Team bookkeepers could not account for a $1 million discrepancy in their finances. The mysterious figure was eventually traced to Henderson, who had received the sum as a signing bonus. Instead of cashing the check, he had it framed, and it still hung on his wall.
