The Lift - KT - Thundrous and Magical - Wednesday, October 3

Magical Day.
Perfect moments kept coming.
Parking spot RIGHT in front of our post - a FREE spot in the market - one of five free spots left in Seattle.
A thunderstorm complete with hail turning a corner 20 minuets later as the sun broke the sky wide open in reverse.
Scott brought "moving man" blue, one piece suits for he and Aaron to don. Five minuets later, Ricki showed up in her same, EXACT outfit (no, really, no one called her). Lisa T. brought her lightness of being into the mix.
I SWEAR everyone we asked said yes.
Scott literally CARRIED a small, Japanese woman up, baby style. If that weren't enough, a few minutes later I turned around to witness him carrying a homeless guy up on his BACK, arms threaded through arms, head thrown back. With his legs crossed and dangling, the man resembled Jesus on the cross, no way to get around it.
Lisa was relentless in her fabulous way. "No....lean back...no, REALLY lean back....we're just going to wait here until you honestly give me your weight. Don't you trust me? Come on, trust me..." She had people walking up leaning back so far they were virtually parallel with the ground. They went slow and she got their stories - their names.
We tried to get the UPS man to let us roll him up on his cart. He considered it....
Light, Laughter. So different than our first try. Thunderstorm to blue sky.
