Local public school that has a playground. During the summer months, while school is out, it is a nice place to play.

Balance. Spotted in the Sabin area of NE Portland.
This ‘village‘ is located about 40 southwest of Santa Maria. We had some free time and thought we would do some sightseeing. It as a fun village/town to hang out. The Danish theme is amazing.


We left Marina early in the morning so we could stop and spend some time in Monterey as we made our way down the coast. It was around 9:00am and the center of town was abuzz with this auto auction. I think the ‘RM’ is the same person/company that has an auto auction show in TV. We stopped in a coffee shop and it was filled with high rollers ( as I would define them ) who probably own or collect the various rare cars in the auction.
Just behind this woman there was a parks department info sign, most of the information was faded beyond readability. However, someone decided a new message needed to be written. Somehow I think the woman alone on a bench and the message on the faded sign went together.

On the beach at Marina, Ca. there is a glider launch pad of sorts. It is located high on a cliff overlooking the ocean. Beautiful area from the ground. I could only imagine what it would look like from a bird’s eye view.

During our nine day road trip we stopped at three different missions.

Couple of images from last weeks Pride 2009 event in Seattle’s Capital Hill area.


Although some days I feel this age this is actually an address in Post Alley, which I guess is a bit odd in itself.
A children’s playground set seems like an odd place to make this appeal. Spotted in Lincoln Park, Seattle, north playground.
Ad seen on side of Metro bus in Seattle. I’m not sure riding a large, articulated diesel bus would be a green experience.
Rest Area sign from viewpoint above Selah, Wa.
Phone located at the rest area. The landscape views were pretty amazing. I could see both Mt. Rainier and Mt. Adams. What interested me was the phone booth, probably put out of service due to cell phones?


On the same street as my previous posts I found these two tags. It just seemed odd or out of place in such an upscale neighborhood.
