We realized the other day that Raz had never been to Gas Works Park. I hadn't been in years, either, even though we have multiple view points right by our apartment where we look at it. Oh, and
10 Things I Hate About You, hellllllo. That paint ball fight? Amirite? Why can't we recreate that? Where do you even find those beef steak tomato-sized rainbow-colored paint balls? #deepthoughtsbywhitney.
So, on a random Sunday, we went. I had a major moment right when we walked in telling Raz about the aforementioned big paintball
10 Things fight/date and he had no idea what I was talking about. I have some educating to do and, luckily, a whole lifetime to do it. HE HASN'T SEEN
MEAN GIRLS EITHER. WHO IS HE?
White girl dramz aside, our windy adventure follows. We'll be back when it's warmer.

| #Cold, but getting a nice windblown look going. |

Unicorn band aid on my finger. Someone tried to grab her flat rat out of my hand with her claws out. We're raising a hunter. Also, there was a really weird couple doing engagement photos I was probably judging watching. |

| Seattle, man. Always so much beauty. |
 |
| Fab + tagged wall. Yezzir. |
 |
| I wanted to match the colored pipes and was testing out my new mirrored aviators that are all the rage ($30 at the Rack!) |
 |
| What did we just walk into? LARPing, that's what! |
 |
| I think these LARPers look like Seattle's version of Power Rangers. No? |
 |
| Raz Snapchatting the LARPers. Gotta love him. |

| Seaplane! |
Gas Works is a cool spot. It, our downtown tourist spots and the entirety of Capitol Hill are what Seattle movie dreams are made of. What I love is these places are all legit spaces we Seattleites frequent. As Anthony Bourdain said, "Seattle was Brooklyn before Brooklyn was Brooklyn." We'll always be pretentiously local.
