Not What I Expected...

Back from Seattle--again

Back from a week in Seattle. Looks like I might have hit the last of the good weather as well. It was sunny and fairly warm the entire time.

One thing I noticed was that even with the shorter days, everyone was trying to stretch as much as they could out of those days. I watched crew and kayaks on the ship canal and Lake Union, lit up so no one could miss them, gliding across the water in the deepening twilight. And I saw the same thing in the early morning as well, although we had the extra added attraction of fog on the lake.

And everyone had their dogs out, from the golden retrievers and the huskies taking their owners for a trot around Green Lake, to the very elegant and well-mannered Italian Greyhound I met outside of the Fremont PCC.

There's definitely the feeling of get out and have a good time outside before the weather socks in for the winter.
