A Fisherman's Dream

January 26th, 2009

I was able to get out and about with my girlfriend today and enjoyed myself quite thoroughly. If you have been reading the blog you might know this waterfall from a past post about the flooding in the Northwest along with the impressive roaring torrent at Snoqualmie Falls. On that day it was impossible to get down the lower portion of the falls and get a great view. However, today was a different story as I was treated a local fisherman of the falls. What looks like dust particles is actually snow in early the afternoon.

Two Enjoy the View

As I stepped up to the shore, this lone seagull evoked no fear and was determined to enjoy a slight break in the clouds and fog to enjoy the somewhat hazy view of an otherwise clear Seattle. Although this picture was not taken from Alkai Beach it was close enough to warrant a diversion in the day.

Night Time Circus

A Friday night in Seattle can be just as busy as a weekday morning. With all the stagnation which has occurred this week smog is still visible at night as you can see in the glow of the city.

A Side Note

January 23rd, 2009

Concluding the week, I happened upon this colorful rendition of our new president just off of Pike Street above I-5. Along with the vibrant colors on the banner, the building also jumps out as you as you walk by. It gives you a sense that it might LEAP out at you and say, "Hello There!!!". I am very much looking forward to some brighter days in the area! Hello weekend!
