ON THE FERRY

On my way to visit friends on San Juan island. The ferries still are magical to me. Notice the flag is at half-mast, most likely for Rosalyn Carter's passing.
 

PURPLE STAIRS

 These purple stairs made me think of Jimmy Hendrix's song PURPLE HAZE.. 

NOT JIMMY HENDRIX...

 I goofed when I posted this picture of a statue I mistook as Jimmy Hendrix. Many thanks to ex-blogger Kim for setting me straight! Here is IIS WHO IT REALLY REPRESENTS. 

GET TATTOOED!

 I don't know if there is a city ranking for the number of tattooed people, but if there is, Seattle would be right up there. I've seen some amazing tattoos. 

CLASSIC SEATTLE

 CLassic Seattle skyline from Queen Anne hill. Mount Rainier in the background.

ORIGINAL RESIDENT

Spotted two streets away. One of Queen Anne hill's (Seattle) original residents.

 

MONDAY MURALS

 

Not exactly sure what this is, but I love the autumn colors.

AUTUMN STILL LIFE

 Just pretty, that's all.

WHAT HAPPENED TO THANKSIVING?

 I love Halloween. It's a fun holiday. My favorite holiday though is Thanksgiving. No hype, close family at most tables, non-denominational, and no presents. I think I have answeredmy question about why many stores don't carry inflatable turkeys or Pilgrims. Thanksgiving is not a major money-making holiday like Christmas and Halloween...sad, but true.

THREE CRABS

 What remains of three crabs....I had Buddhist thoughts of impermanence when I saw them.
