YOU

Three more letters from our Seattle trip. The Y is a branch (and its shadow) sticking out of the a shore off of Bainbridge Island.The O is from a sign that I saw while we were on the Underground Tour. I couldn't get a good photo while on the tour so we went back. The bar/grill next to it was pretty good. No cover charge and live music. They also had chili cheese fries that were decent.
This one is of a sculpture in Seattle. I found a couple other letters in this sculpture. This same spot works as a D as well I need to find a second image of either a U or a D. The W and M are in the same situation where the image will work for either but I still need another one.

Seattle vs Utah Jellies

For those of you who might be curious...the lower blob is a jellyfish. We saw about thirty of them when looking off the deck of the ferry on the way to Bainbridge. It was crazy to see real jellyfish that were not in a zoo. There were so many of them. Many just looked like blobs but some were clear.

I realize that this isn't my greatest photograph... ...So here is another image of jellies. This one is from the Salt Lake City Aquarium. I think I actually like the composition of this image more than the other one that was posted. I like that this image seems simpler.

Starfish

More wildlife of Bainbridge Island off of Seattle.

This is the first time that I can remember seeing live starfish not in an aquarium. Maybe in Florida when I was little but I doubt it.

Here is a close up.

Bainbridge Island

Over the weekend we took a trip to Seattle. More pictures will be coming soon.

We took a ride on the ferry to Bainbridge Island and walked around for a couple hours. Views of Seattle from the Ferry were great. I would recommend this adventure to anyone visiting Seattle. Also if you get a chance take a bike on the ferry or rent one on Bainbridge.

While walking around the island Jim heard a snake crawling around. At first he thought that it was struggling. The snake was doing fine, it was the snail that was in trouble.

We didn't think that the snake would be able to eat the snail. I think it took about 10 minutes. The snake gave up for a while but it returned to the challenge and conquered.
I don't think that I have ever seen a snake with the lump in its throat but here it is.
He looks happy, full and lump free.
