The ferry to Bremerton, WA

This gull flew so close to my head, I ran off the deck screaming.  I held up a cookie to see if
a gull would take it out of my hand, stupid bird almost didn't wait till I got the plastic off it.

I saw this poster in Westlake Park

So yeah, why?

Are you going to be there? I will!  I just hope it doesn't turn out like a typical Seattle protest.  We seem to like smashing Starbuck Coffee's windows and setting fire to newspaper boxes.  More info at may1stseattle.org 

Maple Bacon Latte

Waterfront sculpture with a little girl trying to take a picture of it.  Its metal green seaweed with fishes and other sea creatures swimming it it.

That sounds really gross!  I like maple syrup and bacon but not in my coffee.  Theo Chocolate makes chocolate bars with pieces of bacon in it.  There is a story on the back of the bar about a girl who grew up eating chocolate chip pancakes and bacon.  The bar was nasty!  Every time I go in there for a sample I end up wishing for a Hershey Bar.

Ode to a tree, I think?

Where's my nuts, you nut?

There was a crowd around this furry rodent, everyone had there camera out snapping away.  He came so close to me I had to keep backing up,  I thought he was going to run up my leg.  Next time I'm going to bring shelled peanuts to Green Lake.  

 Ode to a tree, I think.

Another crowd was gathered at this stump so I couldn't get close.  I like the flower heart made out of Rhodies.  There was a story written on the damp paper but I couldn't tell if it was about a tree or a person. 

Alice Bird

A new species of bird called the Alice Bird! A guy on the bus drew this for me while we were on our way downtown.  He works at the Ye Old Curiosity Shop on the water front.  His name is Lloyd Joyut and he draws pictures for the tourists.   His thing is to incorporate people's names into his drawing.  My middle name was on the belly of the bird but I Photoshopped it out.  I love this picture! 

More Sakura Con

They are playing kick the bottle.

I went and gawked at all the crazy costumes.

Happy Easter Everyone!

Happy Easter!

I lied on my Weight Watchers list.  I put down that I had 3 eggs... but they were Cadbury chocolate eggs.

I am so looking forward to all that chocolate, I may buy myself something expensive from Fran's on First Ave in downtown Seattle.

A rainbow of color at Lowes

Purple

Pink

Orange

I spent five minutes in the plant section enjoying the riot of color.  Then I spent 30 minutes trying to get something I needed and I got little to no help finding it.  It seems everybody with knowledge about hardware decided to got to dinner at the same time.

The parking lot around the Krispy Kreme was empty, maybe they were afraid of being murdered.  I guess someone was stabbed last week.

Flying Things at the Seattle Center

I was having a staring contest with a starling

When pigs fly!

Its easy being green!

Its a good stress relief, sitting on a ferry watching the skyline get smaller.  I try to take photos of seagulls in flight, one out of thirty pic's come out.  I have never been to Bremerton that is my next trip.
