ONLY FOR SMURFS

 A family of these highly toxic mushrooms sprouted up by the curb on a neighboring street. Pretty, but possibly deadly. Only for Smurfs.

CHOCOLATE....

 

Seattle is known not only for its many coffee shops, notedly Starbucks  (which is not my favorite) but also for its chocolate. Went out to dinner with two friends last night and we shared this sinful German Chocolste cake with caramel sauce and crispy almonds.

AUTUMN AND URBAN COLORS

 

(Nikola) TESLA in the 'hood

 Not really NIKOLA TESLA  himself of course, but the electric car bearing his name.

HONESTY IS THE BEST POLICY

 

At least they're up-front! 😁--Yankee's in Seattle until January.

78....

 

Seattle has hills and it has many stairs, especially in my daughter's neighborhood. There are 78 stairs in this photo. At home in Belgrade I have no elevator to take me up and my 98 stairs...which I climb and descend 3 times a day 'thanks to' my dog.

MY FAVORITE SEATTLE HOUSE

I have admired this house for years. I am in Seattle now until mid-January so Yankee will be posting from Washington state.

KU KLUX GHOST?

 

I was waiting at a red light downtown when I noticed this stain on a wall across the street. Maybe it's because Halloween is just around the corner, but at first I thought it looked like a ghost. However, it's hood and cross shape in front of the figure looks more like a Ku Klux Klan ghost.

MONDAY MURALS--QUEEN NATALIE OF SERBIA

 A huge mural of Serbia's QUEEN NATALIE, wife of Milan I Obrenovic of Serbia, who ruled from 1882 to 1889.  Queen Natalie was a celebrated beauty in her youth and was later regarded as one of those most beautiful queens in Europe.
