Olympia – Bonney Lake, Washington

Early to rise, the adventurers had the breakfast buffet that the hotel offered and took a swim before hitting the road. The Prince was in his glory … he loved water. That’s not surprising since six of his planets are in Pisces.

The merchant explorers filled up their propane tank at the SHP Service station, had the five buck lunch at Dairy Queen, picked up provisions at Costco, and got a new cell phone from AT&T so they could properly process Square and credit card sales at the festival. They dropped by Jiffy Lube to get an oil change on the Explorer. While waiting for the oil change, they got online to wrap up things since they would likely be offline for the weekend fest. They were glorified to see the Archaeology survey funds as well as some amazon sales were deposited to their bank. Online, Sir Thomas processed some bills including the monthly Netflix fee so that he could advertise and review movies. Paid for excessive phone calls to Ireland on Skype. They then drove to the festival grounds, checked in, and began setting up their tents and booth. It was a festive camping ground and almost SCA (Society for Creative Anacronism in style). Apparently the groups hosting it used to be SCA and schismed off creating their own. They camped in their trailer after completely decorating and putting up the booth.
