Random Seattle Photos – Post 24 of our August Seattle trip

I’m finally done with the Tacoma Glass Museum posts (whew)! We’re actually already back in Albuquerque, but I’m not done with all the Seattle posts yet. We did a lot in Seattle and I’m very behind with my posts! Here’s some random Seattle pictures, and then I’ll move onto some more Washington trips in subsequent posts. Hopefully!

Here’s a crazy flower that is growing across the alley at the neighbor’s house.

Biska in front of the garden shed, with our van on the right:

There’s lots of snails. They usually stay outside, but uh – how did it get almost all the way into our kitchen garbage? That was one determined, hustling snail.

Early morning tracks on the outdoor patio carpet:

The Fauntleroy ferry terminal.

Lincoln park

An unexpected view of the Seattle skyline while on a walk in our neighborhood.

We didn’t go up in the Space Needle. We just happened to be nearby when going to the Chihuly glass museum. I’ll post those pictures in the next post – there are too many for this post. I got excited and took multiple photos of every single thing in the museum.

And of course I can’t go to Seattle without ordering crab. Not just crab cakes, oh no, actual real chunks of just crab. (It came on a salad, whatever, at least it was on top!)

Later we found cooked crab in the meat department of the grocery store. I had remembered that from my younger years when I lived out here, but we hadn’t initially found any. So I didn’t know that it was still available in the grocery stores. Yep, it is, at the QFC, which is nothing fancy, just a normal supermarket, a subsidiary of Kroger. I forgot to take a picture of our grocery store crab, but it came whole! Here’s the photos of the salads we made after John generously volunteered to crack the crab meat out of the crab for us.

We’re not only eating seafood though. Here’s a photo of John at another café.

Here he is a few minutes later with his fancy milkshake. Now look at his smile! He went from alright to alright!

Fog over the water on an otherwise completely sunny day.

Oh, and between all the fun stuff, we are still working on the Tucson remodel. Here’s a photo of a bathroom medicine cabinet display at the local West Seattle Home Depot, lol. I knew you wanted to see that!
