We went to the inaugural Wassail at Anderson School in Bothell this weekend. Here are the three apple trees they brought in for the celebration.
There were a variety of ciders represented so we sampled a few. We had Ryeleigh with us, and she received a lot of pets. Then the Sound & Fury Morris Dancers came in.
Then the trees were toasted.
There were Wassail songs.
And dances.
Some of the crowd got involved.
After this the trees were properly wassailed.
We had dinner in the Woodshop, partially so we could watch the Packers and Bears game. It was a good one. Here are some steins above the bar. It’s hard to see, but there is a Seafair one.
We had booked a room at the hotel so we didn’t need to drive home. This time we got the Marilyn Eylar Conaway room. Here is the information about her and her portrait.
He had the beagle with us so plenty of dog walks Here is a gas statue in front of the hotel.
And a hallway in the hotel.
Bob Weir had died while we were there. Here is a Instagram post from Anderson School from an August 1 celebration they had there.
And here is an Anderson School T-shirt that Tom purchased during our stay.
We did enjoy the Lagoon Pool in the morning before we had to pack up and go back home. It was fun to see all of the families enjoying themselves on a Sunday morning.
So we had a nice Wassail. It was a birthday present for Tom, and we might need to make it an annual tradition.
