We have finally reached my favorite time of year here in Seattle: 9 PM sunsets. Going out while it’s still light out is my favorite thing ever. I also feel soooo much more motivated to do things during the week when it’s light out. And to think, it’s still getting later! This is truly my time to shine ✨

Speaking of finding ways to make the most of those extra hours...

Four days of gaming, tournaments, panels, freeplay, and everything else that makes PAX West the biggest weekend on a Seattle gamer’s calendar return from 9/4–9/7. Enter to win a pair of 4-day badges and experience the convention that started it all.*
