Left the place at 4;00 am Tuesday, arrived in Seattle at 9:15 and, with others on the trip was bundled into a car for a lot of driving. I had forgotten that there is no direct connection between any two points in the Seattle area. But we cheated death again, and had a wonderful dinner at a frou-frou restaurant near the W Hotel, followed by the well-lubricated gathering of information I will never be able to print.
This morning started at 6:00 am, and after breakfast and a short drive we spent the rest of the day -- at least until 1:00 pm -- at a familiar "campus" in nearby Redmond. Interesting information, and even the security guards there look like geeks....
Did I take pictures? Not to speak of. I promise more from Montana.
I did get to see Mt Rainier through the clouds during the incoming flight...
This was the closest I got to the Space Needle...
Pig-painting has spread to Seattle. This one's outside a bar...
Didn't notice where the merry-go-pig was...
I thought I saw a green pig in front of a Starbucks, but couldn't get a picture.
I am tired, and should sleep well tonight.

I lived in Tacoma for a bit. Had to walk by the state hospital as part of the route to school. Puget Sound is very stunning as is the view of Mt Rainier. Although it rains a lot there and eensey blanket of snow. I like snow, I spent most of my lil tyke years growing up in Buffalo.
Glad to see you back :)
Welcome home! Sounds like a good trip.
I am only now learning of this pig painting thing. It leaves the door wide open for terrorists to disguise themselves as painted pigs in fropnt of bars. What happens next is anyone's guess.
I'm glad you had a good time. I love the pictures, especially the one of the pig.
