What better way to spend Thanksgiving weekend than with a bit of travel?  The hubster and I made the three hour trek with the greatest of ease, relishing the sunshine and all the wonders of our favorite city to the north.  Here’s a bit of what we saw by day.  Night time photos next week…

This is what Mt. Rainier looks like when you drive by really fast.  Zoom!

I love photographing bridges…

Leaves fall like anywhere else.

Making friends.

We feel blue.

Let it shine.

Rose hips and habitat restoration on the Sound.

The Seattle Post-Intelligencer – it’s digital.

These are a few of my favorite things – art, bees, flowers, and words.

Hello gorgeous.

Fish.

Details like this are the tops.  How long do you reckon this has been here?

The Seattle Public Library

Rem Koolhass, Architect.

Through the mesh.

Evocative.

It means what it says.

We saw twirling square dance dresses – do-si-do.

Volunteer Park Conservatory

Oxygen rich, warm, and humid.

Smells like heaven.

Cooper and Sohn at SMITH.

Another bridge and beautiful sky.

Happy 87th Birthday Grandma – we love you!

For November primrose blooms…

cute and cuddly kitties…

delicious food…

and all that is sweet in this life.

What a lovely Thanksgiving we had here.  The hubster and I enjoyed a wonderfully leisurely day at home with the kitties.  We never left the house nor changed out of our yoga clothes from our morning practice, just the way we like it.

We also tried a little something new – a vegetarian feast for two.  We replaced our poultry portion of the meal with a delicious mushroom, caramelized onion, and gruyere tart.  Yummy!  The rest of the feast included the usual suspects: stuffing with gravy; cranberry sauce; cranberry, apple, and walnut coleslaw; sweet potatoes with caramelized pecans; and Gregory’s favorite pecan pie – a slice of heaven the whole day long.

I hope you had a terrific day!
