The things that frustrate me about where I live, bad public transportation, litter, spotty food and coffee quality, seem to not be a problem up there. And we had a feeling there were other and better clubs, but alas, being strangers to the city, we walked all over belltown looking for one because we'd heard this was the place to go. But maybe because we're used to SF where you can hear a club two blocks away (Seattle clubs must be more discreet) we couldn't find any. And oh, that explains the train tracks!Cherylhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01679485132057382813noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6362903411474112827.post-88753179689610090702009-06-19T11:12:23.577-07:002009-06-19T11:12:23.577-07:00Oh, and the "bus tunnel" is soon to be t...Oh, and the "bus tunnel" is soon to be the "bus and light rail" tunnel!

So much to dig into, app...Wonderful post, Cheryl...<br />So much to dig into, appetizing and delicious!<br /><br />-- Great job of capturing the feel of the city... I like how you focused in on what things that affected you.<br />-- I, too, like the idea of poems on the city bus... only wish the author's name was there. Oooo, and I wish Mr. Brett Dean McGibbon the best in his self-publishing endeavor... that's the kind of thing I love to see!<br />-- Big Blonde in the Woods: At 5 years old, I saw a very similar painting (maybe it was this one) and remember how strongly I wanted to be a REALLY BIG LION and EAT HER UP!!!! Seeing it now... same animalistic response; slightly different interpretation.<br />-- Cowgirls Inc. seems a bit like Coyote Ugly. <br />The higher the guy to girl ratio, the more need for huge and scary bouncers. <br />-- Metro bus tunnel??? Very confusing, especially with the tracks and all, but also very visually stimulating... nice photo!<br />-- How incredibly cute those multi-colored, soft and cuddly Pike Place pooches are!<br />-- What a great shot of the eagle and nest!!! I thought it was small at first until I realized that white spec was the eagle's head...<br />-- Victoria B.C. seems nice... next time travel up to Vancouver for the "Amsterdamishly smoky" coffee shop atmosphere ;)<br />-- Those shoes are beautiful... I'd like to make a few fashion shoe art tiles, and these inspire me!<br />-- Thanks so much for showing a glimpse of yourself, you magnificently amazing and beautiful woman, you!!!<br /><br />VERY satisfying post, Cheryl!!

Hope you make it over here one day. If you make it to my neck of the woods, I'll take you over to some of the clubs. <br /><br />Hi Yet, It was neverending fun, for sure. It is pretty happening. Since the grunge scene began there, I expected a lot of people who belonged to that up there. But there were some really chic, like London or Paris chic, up there. I was pleasantly surprised. And I wished I'd brought at least one pair of pretty shoes!Cherylhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01679485132057382813noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6362903411474112827.post-51575791248534207462009-06-18T17:06:35.826-07:002009-06-18T17:06:35.826-07:00My my!

It's so...cheeky? Unexpected? What's a big blonde doing in the woods, anyway? <br /><br />Hi Miss Amy O, got engaged on the way to Seattle! I would so love to do that. I love that town, and that entire region, too. <br /><br />Hi Beth, I did! And I took tons of pictures of it too! Mt. Rainier hovering over the city, Mt. Rainier from a ferry boat, Mt. Rainier from the airport! I'm so used to hills. A mountain - not to mention two imposing mountain ranges on either side of me - was really a sight to see. I especially loved sitting in a waterside restaurant, with our desserts and coffees, as the sky darkened and the lights across the water slowly became brighter and brighter. Beautiful. <br /><br />I'm glad it brought back pleasant memories for you. I'm glad I saw it in the sun, too. Now Seattle and sun have been imprinted on my memory forever.Cherylhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01679485132057382813noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6362903411474112827.post-89181238446495790022009-06-18T11:54:45.778-07:002009-06-18T11:54:45.778-07:00Hi Peter, ha, ha, Oh I took a lot of those! But lo...Hi Peter, ha, ha, Oh I took a lot of those! But looking over them again I realized they were more interesting in person than in photos. Maybe too much the usual thing, I suppose. Or the lack of contrast with anything in the foreground. <br /><br />The '65 photos - that'll be interesting! If you show those. I love seeing an artist's early works. <br /><br /><br />Hi Helena, thanks! And oh good! Your how I came to England posts have me totally engrossed. It really is a lovely way of recalling a memory. And I'm trying very hard not to anticipate what happens, but it does feel like the kind of thing one wishes would happen to them. Sigh....<br /><br />Hi Dedene, we heard from locals that the weather had just changed in time for our visit. Now its a bit hard to imagine Seattle in the rain, though I remember the movie The Ring was filmed there. How gloomy Seattle felt in that film! <br /><br />Hi Beth, gosh, thanks! I really appreciate that since I was a little unsure about these photos, I admit.Cherylhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01679485132057382813noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6362903411474112827.post-25971449689491132752009-06-18T07:58:29.871-07:002009-06-18T07:58:29.871-07:00And Mount Ranier floating above Seattle on a sunny...And Mount Ranier floating above Seattle on a sunny day?
