Good afternoon for a walk around the lake. I try and take photos of the ducks –
They’re hard to get a decent photo of cause they won’t stand still. Nervous little buggers –
It’s a game we play, they bob and weave, I look like an idiot trying to take their picture. I’ll keep trying, but they’ll likely have the last laugh.
You guys are way, way, WAY, too early –
We’ll have to wait and see how this turns out. Stay tuned.
Mukilteo Light Station –
Closed in the winter, so we’ll have to go back in a couple months to go inside. Cool though.
Spokes that is –
Go ahead, count ’em, they’re all there.
Mounted to an all black, 68 Coupe de Ville. I won’t say it was something I’d do, but it looked the part.
You’re sticking your tongue out at me?
I guess you can do that when you’re 15 feet tall.
The lions didn’t act this way –
Neither did the penguins –
Or the young flamingo –
Even the heron was behaving himself (while trying to nab leftovers from the penguins) –
You’re the only one that thinks it’s funny –
Thanks giraffe, you made us laugh too. Thanks also to Woodland Park Zoo and the weather for making it a nice day to go to the zoo.
Never know what you’ll find –
Yes, that’s a New Generation 737. Four of them on this train. Pretty interesting sight. And certainly something I don’t see everyday.
They ran out of Crazy Glue in Everett, so they’re taking them down to Seattle to have the wings and tails glued on.
Then they put them back on the train and send them North again to get painted and finished up.
Wait, NONE of that’s true. Well, the NextGen 737 part is, but Crazy Glue and the rest I made up. I think they’re headed for Renton where they put the thing together before flying it to Everett for paintwork. Don’t quote me, I’m certainly no expert.
That the sun does in fact come out in Seattle in January –
Gotta be honest, I kinda miss the rain.
All 3 photos are from a stroll around Ballard on the weekend.
Usually when I say ‘I tried and failed at golf this weekend’, what I really mean to say is ‘I’m a horrible golfer that has no business playing the game’. But this weekend was different. We went to the golfing course, and wanted to play golf there. The course however had other ideas. Frozen ideas. As in, come back in in a few hours when things defrost. We bailed and had a nice breakfast pow-wow instead.
Here’s a look at downtown Seattle from the course on Saturday –
Fog city. Lotsa crazy weather this winter. I think it might be a sign. Of what, I don’t know. But a sign nonetheless.
Glad it ain’t my roof –
At least it’s not raining on the leaky roof….
Sun was going down. I know, I know; Sun was out? In Seattle? In January? Anyway, it was, and as it passed through this restaurant’s windows, it threw great colors around –
Nice work Mr. Sun, it’s good of you to show up every now and then.
