Reach for the sky....or needle....

The long arm of the statue of Chief Seattle reaches for the sky...or Space Needle...or perhaps the satellite dishes on KOMO 4 News.

Eat cupcakes...and do WHAT?

Spied this fellow selling not sure what, but it wasn't cupcakes, at Westlake Mall here in Seattle. His shirt reads in entirety, "Eat Cupcakes and Praise Satan"....hmm....

Vincent, my Valentine

How's this guy for a sweet Valentine?  Judging by the heart on the window, I guess his name is Vincent.  Not sure what he's wearing, but his surroundings definitely scream "Happy Valentine's Day".

I took the larger photo first, then noticed that he has a mini-me in the second photo.

SKYWATCH--squid, anyone?

The other day I posted a photo from a sushi bar, but had few commentors who shared my taste for that dish.

How about squid?  These people were waiting for the sun to go down so the squid below the pier would be more amenable to their bait.

Four fingers, no thumb...REVISED!!

REVISION:  Mathematically-challenged me now sees that there are indeed four fingers and a thumb....duh.

Bad enough to be dismembered hand, let alone be short a thumb along with a body.  Seen on the floor of a closed business on Capitol Hill in Seattle.

ABC WEDNESDAY: "E" is for 'envious'

I must admit I'n a bit envious of this cool kids' hair salon in a toy store here in Seattle.

What fun!  Also have to admit I'd have a terrible time trying to squeeze myself into one of those cars.

Sushi bar

Seattle has a good share of sushi bars and I love sushi...so......

Rain, rain....

The East Coast has major snow and here in Seattle we have a lot of rain. California envies the Evergreen State at the moment. I hear it's dry down there.

Rainbow on my wall

Not my wall, but my daughter's wall.
