August 19th. My anniversary, also my first day at a new job. Celebrations, stresses and strange portents.
6:26 PM : A candle sits forlorn and out of season at the train station. Will anyone take it home?
7:37 PM : A brief rain shower, then this on my way back from the boozemart:
is that from Beacon Hill?
used to live over the water in West Seattle (Admiral Way) and also in Issaquah, many years ago.
still a beautiful city, though nothing like what I remember, I’m sure
This is from South Bellevue (Factoria) . Looking all the way across Mercer and Lake Washington.
They’re putting up new high rises and sky scrapers on the north side of the city like there’s no economic depression.
Yes! I love that!
For some reason, there’s a plane flying over lake washington trailing a banner with a wine ad on it.
Isn’t it a little early to celebrate?
Our glasses get little chips in them from the dishwasher occasionally, but the other day I noticed a pretty significant chip and sharp edge on a glass, and threw it out. But that got me wondering, where is all this glass going?
Then the next day I found this in the silverware rack.
Yeah, I’ll wait till I can have a nice picknic graveside.
3rd. and last attempt as the weather is about to change and we have a forecast of rain for tonight.
Mars, the tiny red pixel on the left, and the Moon.
Very nice! The ejecta rays from Tycho show up really well!
Obrigado. Thank you.
