Viaduct

 Last Days

This last Saturday Carmel and I went for a walk on the Viaduct. It was the very last time it was open to the public. Here are some pictures I took.

Although you were not allowed to walk on more then a small section of the structure it was still great to be up there for the last time. The weather was a rainy and windy and seemed fitting to the surroundings. There were machines chipping away at the concrete even as we were up there. It was a little bit sad. The Viaduct is one of my favorite drives in Seattle. Driving north during a sun set was always my favorite. It was so much fun to fly above the city at 60mph. It's going to be sad when it is gone, I'm going to miss it.\

Canning

Canning

I've been canning a lot lately. This is the first year I've canned before and I think I'm hooked. So far I've canned 3 jars of Italian Style Tomato Sauce, 10 jars of Honey Spiced Peaches, 6 jars of Pears in Syrup, 8 jars of Apple Pie Filling, and 6 jars of Oktoberfest Beer Mustard.

Now my cupboards are full of canned goods. I think this was a good start to canning, maybe next year I will do a little more and try out a few more things. It takes some time and effort but it is definitely worth it.

Picture Of The Day

 Tower

Well here it has been another long while since I've blogged. I'm going to make it a point to start blogging again more consistently, I swear. One thing I'm going to try and do more is a picture of the day. I take a lot of photos, I mean a lot. So I'm going to share them and give some context behind each one. I may not post every day but I will try ad do it as often as I can.

I'm going to start off by sharing a photo I took last week. I was walking back from Fremont along the ship canal after a heavy rain and one of the parking lots next to an office building there was this huge puddle. Looking down at this puddle you could see this.



I took this with my the last picture on the roll in my Canon AE-1 with a 28mm lens. I've photographed this tower many times before as I'm always walking by it. There always seems to be new ways to capture it.
