I remember how Krishna would always be up for exploring Seattle. We once had a conversation about how all I knew around Seattle were restaurants, and bars. That day, a few minutes after he went back home, he sent me his list of favorite things to do in Seattle. The last one we went to together was to the Pier 66 cruise terminal. We were driving back from a lunch and he suddenly parked on Alaskan Way and said one of the spots on the list is right here. It’s my fondest memory of how he made a regular day unforgettable.
