Seattle, Washington

From the observation deck of the Space Needle.
Today we rode the Amtrak Cascades from Portland to Seattle. (Still not going to drive-and-park in these cities!) Found a nice brewpub in Belltown for lunch, checked in our hotel, went up the Space Needle in the afternoon, walked and found dinner and then went up the Needle again.

Something we've noticed in every major city we've visited in the last several years: construction cranes everywhere. They're simply going to photo bomb every wide-angle photo.

Hard to believe that only two years ago I was only a week behind in posting here. Seems like years since I was even *that* "caught up."

Beautiful cityscape. You should come to Miami. I think there were 60 cranes at one time.

[Jane Anderson]

Very pretty! We have cranes in most of our photos from our recent trip to NYC.

Great DOF seeing all so close and that splendid mountain way over there!

[Kim]

Wow, what a view!

[Kathryn]

Still a lot of haze from the fires? But you did get the see the mountain. Nice view.

@houser934 On our way out of town four days ago, we bought dust masks at a hardware store. We didn't need them in Portland and we don't need them here. I'll have to find some sanding project at home now! ;)

The mountain so so beautiful, it's hard to believe it's so close to a big bustling city.

A spectacular view Thom and good luck with the catching up.
