I forgot the number of scenes in the story set in Kirkland, WA until I went around town trying to get them all recorded on film. I enjoyed Combo 1 at Burgermaster where you are still waited on by a car hop. How many years had it been? I didn't remember the routine. They had to tell me everything. It didn't come natural to roll up the window enough to accommodate the trays. I still spilled everything on my lap. It is technically demanding to eat French fries from a window tray without slopping catchup everywhere. The ladies and men were very gracious and the service was great. Burgermaster is the Northwest's answer to Southern Cal's In & Out. I didn't find Emma Brown's dance studio because it doesn't exist but I did find Carillon Point on Yarrow Bay. Carillon is pronounced "Carolyn." Just so you know! I asked the Manager at the "Bin on the Lake" restaurant if I could take some pictures on their patio and then told her why. She was so excited that their restaurant was a scene in a novel. Also, Trevor's neighborhood just east of Bridle Trails State Park is classy just as I expected. Many of the owners have horses on the property. I visited one home on a 1-acre selling for $995,000. The owners converted the horse barn into an exercise room and work shop. The agent said in a good market the property could fetch $1.3 million. The homes there were built in the late '60s but look like new inside and out.
