Seattle in 09

Let me say this straight out, Seattle is not my favorite city. Not a big coffee drinker, don't have the right outdoor clothes and the waves aren't big enough to surf. However you can get great salmon anywhere, anytime. They even had it at my free breakfast buffet. I know I am setting myself up for comments but especially this time of year, what's to love? What really yanked my chain was, here in the land of the internet, there is no such thing as free wireless! Surfer Bob had to trek around the corner to the public library and hang out with the homeless just to check his e mail. The good news is the Seattle Public Library is an architectural jewel both outside and in. No visit is complete without paying homage to "Working Man".  I will allow that the flight to Seattle is usually a beautiful view and this time did not disappoint. A picture through a plane window could not do justice to flying into Seattle over the cloud cover at sunset with Mt Rainier peeking through. Superb.
