Day 238 of 2025

On our last morning before our flight home, we headed to the water again. 

This time we followed a previously unseen path. 

It took us under the drawbridge we have walked across all week. 

This is the Montlake Cut that connects Portage Bay with Union Bay.

Day 237 of 2025

It's definitely still summer on Alki Beach.

Day 235 of 2025

Heart rocks are great but leaf hearts are pretty great too.

Day 234 of 2025

Seattle street art.

Day 233 of 2025

The Museum of Flight was fascinating 

and more than one can take in with just one visit. 
We will definitely have to return.

Day 232 of 2025

We packed a lot into the day, 

but Fireball is in his favorite spot at the end of the day. 

The view is of Portage Bay, Seattle, Washington.

Day 224 of 2025

It's time for me to head to the airport, 

but the Mountain had to surprise me one more time. 

It always amazes me.

Day 223 of 2025

M, The Trumpter, and I walking home from dinner. 

It's a shadow selfie.

Day 222 of 2025

Traveling back from Bainbridge Island on the ferry, 

Mount Rainier was showing off.

Today M and I are going to Flock Fiber Festival in Seattle. 

There will be yarn, fiber, ideas and sheep.

I have arrived at my weekend location. 

Any guesses? 

Big hint- I'm in the Pacific Northwest.

Day 247 of 2024

Today is our last full day in Seattle and we made the most of it. 

So many buses.

Day 241 of 2024

Adventure awaits and this time Fireball is with me. 

The Mt. Rainier sighting tells me we are almost there.

Day 294 of 2023

It's good to be home,

but we're already planning the things we'll do next time. 

I'll unpack before I go to bed. 

Day 293 of 2023

Although we had been to and around the Space Needle

 on previous trips to Seattle, 

we had never gone up to the top until today. 

This shot is from the elevator on the way down 

as the city lights were just becoming bright enough

to really be seen.

Day 292 of 2023

It's been another busy day in the best way possible. 

We started with M's favorite coffee shop and a tour of her workplace. 

From there Fireball and I took the bus to SAM (Seattle Art Museum) 

which had some amazing exhibits. 

Today's museum visit was the fourth (and last) of this trip

 so I am dubbing this our Seattle Museum Tour - 2023.

A short walk from SAM took us to the Amazon Spheres 

where we met The Trumpeter and a friend of his who gave us a tour. 

This picture is from inside.

Day 291 of 2023

Today Fireball and I saw a lot of things. 

One of the most interesting places we went today

 was the National Nordic Museum. 

There were so many interesting things inside, 

I couldn't decide which picture to post here

 so I decided to show you this giant troll

 who lives just outside the museum. 

His name is Frankie Feetsplinters 

and you can read more about him and other trolls here.

Day 290 of 2023

 

The museum we wanted to go to was not open today 

so we climbed the 107 steps

 to the top of an old observation tower instead. 

We ate dinner at separate restaurants

 to give M and The Trumpeter

 a chance to celebrate their anniversary alone. 

We met up again for some molten cakes for dessert.

Day 289 of 2023

In case you haven't figured out where we are, we're back in Seattle. 

Today Fireball and I were joined by M and The Trumpeter 

at MoPOP (Museum of Pop Culture) in Seattle. 

In particular we wanted to see the exhibit of Hidden Worlds, 

the films of Laika. 

This box is from the film Kubo and the Two Strings. 

The details of the clothing, figures, sets and props were amazing. 

After we left here, we went to the Seattle Pinball Museum. 

Fun times there too.
