Head apparel seems to be the theme today. Straw Hat, butterfly hat and the ever present balloon hat. This once a month street fair on Alberta St. runs from May till Oct. every year and stretches about a 18 blocks along the street.

The next door neighbors, on both sides, to my daughter’s home in NE Portland have clematis plants that I clandestinely shoot every summer.

I needed a break from the Fisher Flour Mill. Today, something to brighten up the Seattle doldrums.

If you can afford it, copper is a nice touch that ages well.

Just what every front yard needs, a life-sized, rusty bovine.

This open space, adjacent to Alberta Street, which is highly commercial, seemed kind of odd to me. I mostly like the clouds, I think. The Vespa obsession continues :-).

Wherever I walk I tend to find odd objects, things out of place. I found this framed photo walking around NE Portland a few weeks ago. The photo seems to be a partial view of a house.
