…in the Seattle Area.
Here are a few new things happening in the Seattle area and the state of Washington. I already showed you the latest color on the Space Needle in honor of the 50th Anniversary of the World’s Fair in Seattle. We are also getting a ferris wheel with gondolas similar to the London Eye but a lot smaller. This is located on the Seattle Waterfront. The other new big news item here in Washington is the fact that the State has been forced out of being in the retail liquor business. Starting on June 1st we’ll be able to buy hard liquor at grocery stores and Costco instead of State owned liquor stores. The grocery flyers this week have this as their front page story. I find it very amusing…
Goodbye to May and my Rhoddies! The blooms are fading and falling off the bushes.
If I post again this week I’ll be posting from Chicago. I’m sure my camera will be busy. I bought some new walking shoes that I’ve been breaking in this week. So far I’m really pleased with the Clarks Wave shoes I bought. Whoa! Today is the last day of May…

Wow, Ellen—you’ll be about two hours south of me when you’re in Chicago. I’ll be listening for a loud shout-out from you. Just face north and I’ll hear you! ;o)
I faintly remember the world fair in Seattle. Is that possible? Maybe when there are world fairs…it is talked about for a few years. I would have been 3 at the time. Or maybe…I have a plate commemorating the event. I’ll have to look. You will be the first to know.
Enjoy your weekend! Can’t wait for the photos!
Clarks are my favorite brand — hope these work out for you! And I’m waving farewell to your pretty rhoddies.
Have a great time in Chicago!
Chicago? You’re halfway here – just keep coming! You can enjoy the rhodies all over again – mine are just starting to bloom 🙂
Gosh. You are living the life. Hope that your walking shoes are kind to you and that you see a lot in Chicago.
My rhodies were gone three weeks ago. Love the pictures! Have a safe trip.
I am getting more and more convinced that Seattle MUST be on our “bucket” list!!! We’ve been to Chicago and loved it there – hope you have a great trip. I can’t believe we’re at the end of May already – eek!
