Plans

Stop by after work, call it 3:30, then take the toll bridge back to Seattle.

Expedition

Pouring rain as I headed south, traffic very much affected. You see, Seattle drivers can't drive in the rain. Or the snow, or at night. Or in the sun for that matter.

On the way in, I passed buildings A, B, and C of the Google Kirkland campus. The proper street was quite easily found. I parked in the driveway of the spot, nobody home, and did the GPS dance with the car. I didn't find any historical mention of Feriton, and the railroad tracks looked quite disused.

Decided not to take the toll bridge in the rain, but instead headed home my usual route, making just one stop - for Fish and Chips.
