Although we didn’t know it at the time, this day was probably one of our last pleasant days before the seasons shifted. The NW has been in the grip of an Arctic Cold the past few days, very uncommon for us this pre-Thanksgiving holiday. As I type this it is snowing, but rain is predicted (thankfully )for the afternoon.
Happy Thanksgiving to all!
A street running from the Duwamish River to the main intersection in South Park. The man-hours it must have taken to have laid all of these bricks is unimaginable.
Intake pipe on Rocky Brook Creek that captures water for the hydro plant downstream. Water, captured here, flows through the turbines at the small plant downstream. The water is then routed back into the creek.
Spotted on the bank of the Duwamish River.
I will not be posting over the next few days. Will be away from home and will not have access to my current images.
Be well, all!
Fall seems to be early this year. Moss and leaf, which has already turned and is starting to decompose.
Today, Bluestar2012 reached the 5,000 hits mark! When I started this blog I had no idea where it was going to go or if it would garner more than a passing look by a few curious people. I am very pleased with the attention it has received as I slowly carve out an identity for the blog.
Thanks to all of you who have passed by and made this milestone happen!!
South Park Bridge photos – More photos.
A link to the King County Department of Transportation that has posted 13 of my images regarding the demo ( and future replacement ) of the 14th St. Bridge, in the South Park neighborhood of Seattle.
Extracto Coffeehouse, in NE Portland. They have added a second location on Prescott St. that specializes in drip coffee by the cup. You can choose your coffee bean, watch them grind and go through the whole drip process. I had an Ethiopian blend that was very smooth. The photo above is from their Killingsworth location and is a mocha latte, my weakness.
BNSF train heading north out of Seattle.
Rain barrel, moss, webbed-feet and sun screen ( for those 10 rare days of sun we experience annually) a rain barrel affixed to a downspout is becoming more common in the NW. This one was manufactured by The Rain Barrel Man of NE Portland.
