Why I stay...

Seattle makes a number of good arguments for my staying in the region. This photo is but one:



These colors are true.

Very pretty.

Drool-worthy camera too, I see from the full-sized picture's photo information.

Ah yes.

I have some similar pictures (colors and all) of the Anderson Island ferry pulling out, taken from the back deck of my parents' house in Steilacoom.

There's a reason they're in my set of rotating desktop backgrounds.

One of the things I like best about living here is that you don't need to necessarily go anywhere special for jaw-dropping views.

"La la la, shopping at the Market. . . ooooh!" "Goin' to the video store to drop off my rentals. . . ooh!" "Going to the kitchen in my office for a soda. . . ooh!" etc.

Things To Do

(transportation wise) -

Aside from riding the SLUT which is free this month, there's also a "holiday" passenger ferry (http://www.wsdot.wa.gov/ferries/commuter_updates/index.cfm?fuseaction=press_releases_content&press_release_id=549) to Port Townsend.

I have some Seattle photos on display in my home here in Omaha, reminding me of where I usually would rather be.

Beautiful! I miss riding those ferries.

Gorgeous. I downloaded it for my pictures screensaver. Thank you.

::sigh:: It's like a long time love affair. Sometimes I get really tired of the attitude, but then I have moments likethe one above and I fall in love with the city all over again.

Off topic--Hello! This is Susan Grossman. May I add you to my friends list? I'd love to be staying in closer touch with you than just seeing you at a party once in a while.

The camera was a lifelong dream and an absolute requirement for Africa. I have yet to stretch it to its full capabilities, but it has already proven itself worth the purchase price and then some.

[scarlettina.livejournal.com]

You're welcome. :-)

Hi Susan! Please feel free to add me to the flist! I'd be delighted. Vice versa?

I'll have to remember that as an excuse to upgrade from a very good camera to a grossly expensive camera when we do our wildlife park safari.

Of course! Although my LJ is very prosaic, and I hardly ever talk about books and writing. I usually talk about my pets. I have a social chit-chat LJ, for the most part.
