âMy favorite decks are probably Maggie Bluffs, BluWater Bistro, Casa del Mojito on Lake City Way, and Nickerson Street Saloon. Some have views, some donât, but all have great people.â

âI live up north and thereâs a little park at Silver Lake outside of Mill Creek. I like to go hang out there with the kidsâthey like to feed the ducks bread and itâs just a beautiful spot. We usually eat whatever fast food the kids go for. Right now, itâs usually McDonaldâs.â
