Last week, I had the privilege of being sent to Urban Campfire in Seattle by Luna with my friend Sarah. I hadn’t heard of Urban Campfire before, but after reading a bit about it, it sounded right up my alley. Inspiring women, check. S’mores, check. Held in an airplane hangar, check. Sounded pretty sweet to me.
So I thought it would be fun to participate in the Accent Vlog link up with The Other Juliette, Allieology, Cause You Gotta Have Faith, and the Wife in Training… even if I am a few days late. Oops. This also happens to be my very first vlog, so go easy on me.
Oh and shout out to YouTube for picking THE WORST possible screen capture. Thanks, guys. (OKAY just kidding, I needed to verify my account and then I could upload a custom one. You’re welcome in advance if this happens to you. Also, thanks to Kate and Lix for the lack of scary face.)

But really, this was a fun little weekend escape, though I think both of us were thrilled to get off the island and back to civilization when all was said and done.
We departed on Sunday, which happened to be Dave’s birthday (and no, I won’t disclose his age. That’s not nice.) He didn’t know where we were going. This is our third birthday together, and each year I’ve surprised him with a mystery destination. It’s hard to up the ante, but I jumped at the chance to travel to Lummi Island after I heard about Willows Inn Chef Blaine Wetzel co-winning this year’s James Beard Award. Continue reading
