Friday/ back in Seattle

It was a beautiful warm, sunny day here in Seattle (85°F/ 29°C). The pictures are from Fifth Ave in downtown, near the Convention Center.

IMG_7691 sm — Artist Ginny Ruffner’s ‘Urban Garden (2011)’ was commissioned by the Sheraton Hotel on Fifth Ave in downtown Seattle. The watering can tilts forward from time to time and a stream of water cascades down the green leaf.

IMG_7689 sm — Here’s the Emerald City ‘Trolley’. (We’re cheating a little bit. It’s not a real trolley like the one in San Francisco, since it’s not running on a track. We do have ‘street cars’. One track is in South Lake Union, with ones in Capitol Hill and in First Hill scheduled to open in the next year or so).
