First time I had ever been to the WSSCA card show in Seattle, and can't wait for the next event in November. The selection is huge, something for everyone, that's for sure. Great to meet Mark M, Andrew, and Sandy at the show albeit very briefly Saturday.

Absolutely horrible traffic, left Eburg at 10, got to Seattle at 1130 (about 100 miles) but it took another one and a half hours to get to Shoreline (about 15 miles). Didn't get there until 1, or so, and needed to be back in Yakima for the Washington State High School Championship @4. Didn't get out of Seattle until 3p, you coasties can keep your crowded freeways.

Happy to report the Ellensburg Bulldogs beat Lake Washington 2-1 for their first state championship in program history. Coached a couple of these boys in Little League so an especially loud shout out to Ceanu Strom and Garrett Hull. Been playing baseball here since the 1891 Ellensburg Deathdealers took the field, and never won a state title until this weekend. Congrats to the Bulldogs, you made us all very proud, and I'll see everyone at the next show:
