Husky Stadium

Again, around 10 miles due south on the campus of the University of Washington. The north seating structure of the Husky Football Stadium

University of Washington Football and Softball stadium

I am straying about 10 miles to the south to the University of Washington, the dominant academic institution in this entire region. I attended the Oregon State/Washington softball game today (the Oregon/Washington game was snowed out on Friday :( ) This shot shows how UW's excellent softball stadium is to the football field. That structure just to the right of the right field line is the football field scoreboard.

Seattle Art Museum

Today I visited the Seattle Art Museum in downtown Seattle (Lake Forest Park borders Seattle to the north) with my daughter and her friend, Janine. This installation with the flying flashing cars graces the main lobby. We went to see the Roman artifacts from the Louvre. Lots of marble and lots of people. Amazing how many statues are of bodies and heads that did not start out together.

The gathering

These young men are gathered in the lower level of the Lake Forest Park Mall near the card shop late on a Saturday afternoon. I think they are playing the card game Magic, not sure. Or similar. I've seen groups like this meeting in the area next to the library. Engrossed and having a good time. The light was low, the quality not so good

Forsythia

Forsythia is blooming in Western Washington. This overgrown bush is in my backyard, I'm always whacking it down. Pretty right now. The weather here is very cold. Tomorrow the University of Oregon softball team opens the season against the University of Washington. Forecast is rain mixed with snow and 10 mph winds. It's gonna be cold!

Reconstruction after storm

Part of a culvert on Lyons Creek at the front of our cul-de-sac collapsed last December. The Public Works people were right on it, making the repairs within a few days.

Back of Acacia Cemetery

A view of the back of Acacia Cemetery. In Lake Forest Park just on the other side of Bothell Way from the Lake Washington. This is very near Briercrest Elementary School. I believe this picture was taken just about on my father in law's site looking over the cemetery towards the lake
