Hi all! I thought I'd share some of the places I've been recently, starting with the last one first. I know, not entirely logical & maybe not even entirely in order, backwards, but...
Last weekend was the Summer Solstice celebration in Fremont, Washington, a celebration filled with frivolity & wild goings on, held in a town know for frivolity & more than a smidgen of wildness, the self proclaimed 'center of the universe,' home of rooftop rocket ships, Stalin (in statue form) & bridge trolls...
 |
| It all started with an overly long drive to Seattle via I-5 |
 |
| Through tunnels |
 |
| Past the Space Needle |
 |
| & into Fremont. We saw famous people (who's more famous than Rapunzel? Who knew she lived in Fremont?) |
 |
| Over the bridge (this opens for tall ships & normally isn't a walkway for pedestrians. Looks a bit like a scene from a zombie film, doesn't it?) |
 |
| See all the people...(It's a tradition to dress up these statues) |
 |
| Stop for a bite to eat (they have delicious food & wonderful Greek coffee) |
 |
| A bit of music here & there... |
 |
| & everywhere |
 |
| Boats & bikes (the harbor) |
 |
| & cars, oh my! (an unusual car show filled with glittery, famous, infamous, strange & fantastical vehicles of all sorts |
 |
| The end of the day, so pretty (I so want to live here)! There's more (monsters, aliens, weddings... ), but I'll save that for next time. |
How about you, have you gone on any little day trips recently?
