Last Sunny Days
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!
Vacant
A view looking south along the upper deck of the Viaduct along Seattle’s waterfront. A few times a year the viaduct is closed for maintenance, marathons and seismic retro-fitting. The viaduct is a major transportation vein for North/South traffic. It is eery to see it noiseless, sans vehicles. Of course, like a few other cities with viaducts, there has been a push to replace the viaduct with either surface streets ( like San Francisco ) or a tunnel ( such as Boston ). It looks like the tunnel idea has won and soon work will probably start, once all of the litigation has been worked through.
