Sunday slipped by

We savored the last lovely day of the weekend, taking a good urban hike around to some of our favorite spots. Gasworks Park was full of people dressed up like anime characters, we thought, as well as a contingent of sturdy folks pretending to be medieval warriors. A weather system was moving in, blowing away the smog accumulating around the area. Sometimes it looks as bad as L.A. Seattle, despite its kind of "green" vibes, is really as guilty of pollution from too many people driving cars as any other place except perhaps big cities in China. Seattle was labeled the Number 1 place to be in about fifty years in a recent edition of Rolling Stone, and perhaps it will be pleasant, though partially flooded, and damned expensive, if there isn't a nuclear event somewhere in the world. If that occurs, no place will be safe.
Hope away, those of you who can.
