Not So Sunny in Seattle

It seems as if fall is finally here in Seattle.  I had high hopes that summer would return but given the 7 day forecast of rain, rain, and more rain, it seems like it's finally over.  However, I am looking forward to the leaves changing, being cozy, wearing sweaters and boots....wait...are those all the good things that come with fall?? In that case, I would rather have summer!!

Yesterday was decently nice outside and in an effort to have a little change of scenery a friend and I went to sit outside and have a beer at this new bar called Auto Battery which is on roughly 11th and Madison next to a hot dog "restaurant" called Po Dog.  They had a pretty good scene going on, granted I was there from 1pm-5pm using my computer and looking like a general Seattle square.  It was an old garage converted to a bar and they maintained some of the original garage "charm." They have pool tables, shuffle board, and air hockey and the whole place comes complete with tire marks on the floor.  I think given the general hipster vibe of capitol hill it is a welcomed addition and, as an added bonus, you can get hot dogs from next door.  I didn't try a dog (or veggie dog in my case) but the menu is very creative and they looked delicious from what I could tell by craning my neck to see the tables around me (something I can usually be found doing quite frequently).

That's all I have for today.  I tried so hard to put together a cute outfit but I had one of those days where I tried on a million things and ended up with jeans and flats so it's definitely not photo worthy.  However, tomorrow J and I are meeting up with another friend for sushi at one of our favorite places and there will definitely be photos of us, photos of sushi, and a good review of Umi!

Happy Fall! G
