Zen and the Washington State Ferries

Sheryl and I are up in Seattle again, making the short run across the Puget Sound to Bainbridge Island. But even in this idyllic environment, the world is not very far off. The Coast Guard is here with their little run-abouts, guarding the ferry on a beautiful day, the snow-capped Olympics in the background. I am trying to ignore the sad troglodytes in our Congress who seem to have little regard for their own futures or anybody else’s. Have a nice Saturday.
