Parts Of The US Are In The “Deep Freeze” But It’s Not Cold Here In Seattle!

We had planned to do some cross country skiing this week, However there was just not enough snow in them there hills. Did that stop us?  No way. We just made lemonade out of lemons, rather than skiing we made it a hike and were rewarded for the effort. As it turned out we couldn’t have asked for a better day. It was sunny and clear and great for a hike up in the hills with plenty of alpine views.

Each month we have a “Games Night” where members can hang out, mingle, chat about events we have done and events that are coming up. We have a private room at a local watering hole where we can play Pool, Darts and we bring in Board games and cards. It’s a little something for everyone, where you can mingle, meet new friends or chat with members you have known for some time. Play Darts for a bit them maybe try your hand with a board game or Jenga. It’s always a fun time.

Reese’s Peanut butter cups are pretty cool, think about it. Two things that are just fine, but when put together are wonderful.

Now think about Dodgeball and Trampolines. Two things that are fine ….but put them together and WOW!  You got Trampoline Dodgeball! It’s one of the clubs favorite activate events. Trampolines seem to bring out the kid in us all. Now just throw in some friends and pizza afterwards and it darn fun!

Come to think of our club is kind of like Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups, take a bunch of fun events and through in some fun singles and together you have something wonderful!

Searching For Walter Mitty.......

Have you done anything noteworthy or mentionable? That is the question that plagues Walter Mitty in the movie “The Secret Life of Walter Mitty.” First published in 1939 by James Thurber, Walter Mitty is a mild man with a vivid fantasy life. In his fantastic daydreams, he is the heroic, adventurous, romantic man he longs to be and personally triumphs. In Ben Stiller’s remake of the 1947 classic, Walter Mitty is trapped behind a desk where his biggest real-life adventure is trying to fill out an online dating profile. When asked what he has done that is noteworthy or mentionable, he has no answer.

Are you Walter Mitty?

Unbeknownst to Thurber and Stiller, they wrote a movie that embodies the spirit of Events & Adventures, an invitation-only club of singles who spend time together nearby or on the road having fun. Our members are often former Walter Mittys who have kicked off their daydreams and are now living the adventure. Events & Adventures plans activities for every personality and adventure level – from white water rafting or skydiving to hiking or cosmic bowling, there is an event to help you shed your Walter Mitty shell.

Don’t get stuck behind your computer playing games or risking virtual match ups, daydreaming about the fun your life could be and having the zest to seize it…Get out and live it with other singles, just like you and let Events & Adventures do all the work! With Events & Adventures, you can make your dreams a reality, all you have to do is sign up and show up – we take care of the rest. 2013 is coming to an end, make sure that 2014 is the year you do something noteworthy and mentionable. Get out. Have fun. And, maybe, meet that special someone.
Live the adventure. Events & Adventures is creating the “Walter Mitty Award” to identify “the most Walter Mitty Events & Adventures member. Stay tuned. Details are being finalized. Events And Adventures Seattle

What a great NEW YEAR’S EVE!

We started on the waterfront in Seattle, right next to Seattle’s newest attraction “The Giant Ferris Wheel” on Pier 57 As you walked into our private banquet hall, you could see the Ferris wheel just out our windows. We had a really fun photo booth (the kind with fun signed you can hold up and mustaches and silly lips on sticks) then a great buffet and a live D.J. on a huge dance floor.

Seeing everyone all dressed up (I even had my tux on) you felt you were in the right spot to toast in the new year….. But we had more in store for NYE!

Around 10pm we raffled off a bunch of Prizes.  In addition to a lot of other items we had as our grand prizes an international trip for two to Victoria B.C. including hydroplane transportation, your hotel, High Tea at the Empress Hotel and a day excursion all to the lucky winner just for walking in our doors that night.

From the water’s edge on to the water!

From there we moved the party (D.J. and all) to our waiting chartered party boat aptly named the “Goodtimes II”.  The party boat cruised around for awhile as we danced and partied then we maneuvering to watch the fireworks burst off the Space Needle at midnight.  Now that’s the way to ring in the new year!

Note to my blog readers: All these pics are real and  from this year’s party except the Space needle pic.  If you were in Seattle you know as we did that the fog made it more ethereal, but hard to photograph.
