Even next to the Duwamish River, which is a Super Fund Site, something pretty can come alive and blossom. The rose-bush this rose is on is about 20 feet from the banks of the Duwamish River, which is not as nasty looking as the Gowanus Canal in Brooklyn, but may come a close second.

Like the house on Beach Dr. on Alki Point in Seattle, this home owner in NE Portland seems to share the same taste in garden decor.

Diving class just off shore on Alki Dr. in West Seattle. Saturday mornings there are usually a group of divers at this location or on the other side of the point, two miles from this spot. If you click to enlarge the image you can see Mt. Baker in the center background.
