Blog Post #2,500!

On April 13, 2014 By Fred KingIn blossoms, Flowers, Nikon D7000, Personal History, Seattle, Thoughts, tulips2 Comments

This is the 2,500th posting I have done on this blog! I never imagined sustaining this effort this long. I thought I would give it a year and see if anyone stopped by to visit and if there were just a few…..well, it probably would have been the end of this experiment. Now, I think this blog has a life of its own and I am just along for the ride.

It has been a unique adventure for me as I normally am a private person. I guess the nature of the internet grants us both exposure and privacy at the same time.

I owe thanks to all of the followers, visitors and friends I have connected with along this journey. THANK YOU!!!

Hydrangeas, etc.

San Francisco, July 1970. The music venue Keystone Korner. Who remembers Boz Scaggs? How about Bennie Cecil and the Snakes? I think we may have to turn on the ‘Way Back Machine’.

* My apologies for the reflection lurking in the back of the library. Was on a busy street and I wanted a straight-on shot.

Record March Rainfall

This March was the wettest on Record for Seattle and surrounding area. This small stream ( in Lincoln Park) is usually just a trickle this time of year.
