Downtown Seattle, Washington:

On June 18th, Cary and I drove to Seattle to watch a Mariner's game.  Here are some of the pictures that I took of the downtown area, most of them from a rainy car window.  Most of them certainly are not award winning, but I think that they give you an idea of the what Seattle's downtown looks like, if you haven't been there yet.  I hope that you enjoy them!

Sometimes, if a photo doesn't turn out "good", I'll mess around with it to see if I can still use it:

    Damp, gloomy....but all in all a beautiful city. Did you cross the bridge that actually 'floats' across the water? I can't remember the name of the bridge...but it's scary.

    SUN TEA

    Have a great Wednesday!!!

    Seattle seems a very interesting place, even in the rain. I like the bright splashes of color (as on the lamp posts and the aquatic ?billboard?). Perhaps, someday, I'll get a chance to visit there.

    Thanks, everybody! Kim, the one with the brick building and the 2 following with "Big Ben" weren't drive by, but the rest were.

    Wow these brought back some memories for me. I used to live about an hour and a half north of Seattle in a town called Sedro Woolley and used to visit the city frequently. Man, I miss Seattle.

    Thank you for the memories, Kathy. I was in Seattle for the first (and so far, only) time a year ago, and it warmed my heart to see familiar places!


    MOST WONDERFUL

    The sky’s a most wonderful thing,
    Enjoyed by both peasant and king;
    No matter the eye
    That see the bright sky
    The proper response is to sing!
