Meeker Days in Puyallup

Friday, after work we hired the Paddywagon service to give us a ride to E. Main and Meridian for Meeker Days. We didn't want to deal with the parking, and this way if we had a glass of wine at the Wine garden driving would not be an issue.

We checked out the street merchants, I finally found a replacement for my Kangaroo skin wallet, it was getting pretty ratty. The brand is Big Skinny and I love it.

We spoke with a lot of nice people and met the most beautiful and well behaved five month old Rottweiler named Roxie. She looked just like Yogi, almost identical markings.



 We had a late lunch/early supper at The Forum, I had the Cuban sandwich, (best I have had in years), and Kathy had the Potato Skins, which she declared awesome.  We will be back. Very friendly wait staff. On the way out, one of the servers told Kathy about Ashley's Room, the consignment shop that had moved next door. She found a dress and a leather purse that she liked.

We walked around some more and were feeling done. So we ducked into Mazatlan, a Mexican restaurant, and called Paddywagon to come get us. A lovely evening.

First outdoor table at Sorci's for the season

It is kind of crazy, but we are enrolled in two different puppy classes on Saturdays. After the first one at the Bonney Lake Petco, we head to Sumner for their Parks and Recs class. We try to get lunch between the two and look for dog friendly establishments.

While we were driving I called Scorci's to see if they would allow a puppy at their outdoor tables. They said yes. When we got there they had a table waiting for us with a water bowl for Yogi. They were a very attentive wait staff, two strapping young men that must lift weights and a pretty young lady. The looked like college students home for the summer time and I think I remember the lady from last summer.

I had the Happy Hour special, three choices for $11 dollars, (meatball slider, asparagus wrapped in prosciutto and the artichoke dip). Kathy had the puttanesca pizza, Yogi had kibbles, (we did training while waiting for the food to arrive).

We will make every effort to come back before it gets too hot for an outdoor table.
